Reiki is a gentle, non-invasive treatment that promotes deep relaxation and a sense of wellbeing. Many people seek Reiki during times of stress, anxiety, emotional overwhelm or simply when they feel the need to slow down, recharge and reconnect with themselves.
Reiki is an ancient Japanese healing technique which can be translated as Universal Life Force Energy. This energy is flowing abundantly around and within all living things. When we are in excellent health, there is a powerful flow of this energy through our bodies. However, during stressful times, this energy flow is slowed down or restricted, manifesting as illness, mental or emotional upset, or a general feeling of being ‘out of sorts’. Reiki is a way of channelling energy through the hands of a practitioner which are placed above or on different parts of a client’s fully-clothed body.
Reiki re-balances, heals and harmonises the recipient in a holistic way on a physical, mental, emotional and spiritual level and accentuates and body’s own natural healing process. Reiki is particularly effective in relieving stress, depression and anxiety and helps to eliminate pain as well as accelerating the healing of injuries.
The healing energy flows to wherever it is needed in the body, promoting a deep relaxation and a feeling of profound wellbeing and inner calm. A single Reiki treatment can be a very relaxing experience. However, a series of treatments can generally have a very positive effect on your whole being.
Reiki is suitable for people of all ages and in all states of health. Reiki is a safe, gentle and non-intrusive therapy that works by harmonising mind, body emotions and spirit. This can help to kick-start your body’s own natural healing ability bringing you back to a more healthy and relaxed state.
What does Reiki Feel Like?
The flow of energy can be felt in many different ways. Some feel heat in the specific areas, or flowing up and down the body, and some feel colder areas. Some feel tingling, pulsing, some see colours, some tend to twitch a little as the energy flows and sometimes, you can get insights into your problems.
There are also some who just feel so deeply relaxed that they fall asleep!
