Reiki
What Is Reiki?
Reiki is a form of sacred Japanese energy healing and alternative therapy where attuned practitioners use a flow of universal life force and sacred symbols that is transferred through the practitioner to the client in order to encourage and facilitate healing. We are all filled with universal life force energy which is the essence of our being. Over time, our life force can be blocked by energies and emotions. This stagnant energy can cause physical and emotional pain. This can negatively impact our health, mood, energy, and ability to connect to others. Improving the flow of the energy improves the body’s natural healing process. Reiki is a safe, gentle, non-intrusive energy healing technique that holistically balances, heals, and harmonizes all aspects of a person – mind, body, spirit and emotions.

What to Expect During Reiki
Sessions typically last between 45 minutes to one hour. The Reiki treatment is typically done on a massage table, the lights are lowered and quiet, calming relaxation music is played. The client remains fully clothed. Sheets, blankets and a bolster under the knees are provided for comfort. Prior to beginning, we can go over any questions or concerns you may have. I will begin the session by connecting with my Reiki Guides, your Guides, your energy, and begin channeling the energy to you. You can relax and set your intention to receive the healing energy. Throughout the session, I typically remain silent, allowing the client to deeply relax. I will use gentle touch in areas such as your head, shoulders, extremities, back, abdomen, and feet avoiding all sensitive areas; however, it can be done completely hands-off for those clients who might not like touch. Everyone experiences the Reiki differently. Some may feel nothing at all while others may experience feel tired, calm, peaceful, or energized. It is normal to feel sensations in your body such as warmth, stomach gurgling, coolness, warmth, tingling, or minor body movements/twitches and is not unusual to fall asleep or enter into a meditative state. I will quietly let you know when the session is complete. After your session, we can discuss any of your experiences, questions, and intuitive messages and guidance I received during the session. My Reiki practice differs from many others because I always provide a three card tarot reading after the session to provide further clarity on the things that came up during the session. This is completely optional and is not required. Along with the energy healing, the guidance will leave you with clarity and insight for your future growth. Drinking plenty of water after your session is encouraged. Receiving regular Reiki treatments improves self-care and and helps you to maintain a holistic balance.
