Reiki Energy Healing

During a Reiki treatment, the Rei (all knowing Omniscience) assesses all levels of the recipient’s being to determine where there is a disruption, restriction or block in the flow of Ki and how to heal it as quickly and comfortably as possible, all while staying in alignment with the intention for the highest good. Since the healing takes place between the recipient and whatever their Higher Power happens to be, the practitioner is simply the channel through which this healing Energy is drawn into the body or energy field. Their hands may be placed directly on the body or held at various distances over it. As Reiki flows through them, It usually goes to the disruption closest to their hands, but sometimes It will go to an area that is far away from where their hands have been placed on or held over the body.

Reiki works with all levels of the recipient to allow for the permanent release of the negative thoughts, feelings and energies that are stuck in or around the body, restoring a healthy flow of Ki as It is pulled into the area that is disrupted. This can happen in an unknown number of ways and within an unknown amount of time. Every person’s healing journey and experience is unique, so it cannot be said exactly how Reiki accomplishes this. However, sometimes these energies are burned up and released in a wave of heat or a cooling sensation immediately after Reiki is introduced into the area. Sometimes, for more severe restrictions and/or blockages, the destructive energy is dissolved and washed away over the course of a few days or weeks. Sometimes, the negative thoughts and emotions are raised up to a level within the recipient’s consciousness where they can receive insight about what they are and why they’re there for the purposes of gaining wisdom. This could take days, weeks or sometimes months. Oftentimes, though, it is not necessary to know the details and the healing happens without knowledge of the thoughts, feelings and energies being addressed.

Before we get started, I’ll ask you if you need to use the restroom and give you time to do that. Then, we will spend a few minutes talking about why you’re receiving Reiki and how It can help you. Together, we’ll set some intentions for your treatment and then I’ll ask you to remove any tight clothing before getting on the table (see below). I usually have the table set up with a blanket and pillow, so once you get on and are settled, I’ll make adjustments to them plus the bolster under your knees and table warmer (if on). Once you are comfortable, I’ll ask you to turn your palms up into a receiving position and connect to your Higher Power to say a prayer and set the intention for your treatment while I also do the same. Then, I’ll begin by lightly placing my hands over the crown of your head, spending a certain amount of time there before moving on to the next area. As mentioned above, there are certain areas I will hold my hands slightly above the body such as the eyes, chest or an injury so there may be times you do not feel my hands. I’ll continue in this way until the Reiki healing session is over, finishing with the feet. I will quietly excuse myself from the room to wash my hands and give you a few moments to integrate your experience. I’ll ask you to crack the door when you are ready so I know I can come back into the room. We can then talk about anything that you feel you’d like to talk about. I’ll ask you if you want to book another appointment and then I’ll take your payment.

Because Reiki has the ability to move through all types of materials (even distance in space!) it is not necessary to get undressed for your treatment. However, it is highly recommended that you wear something light, loose-fitting and comfortable. It is also suggested that any tight-fitting accessories be removed for maximum comfort and relaxation such as belts, shoes, socks, rings, bracelets, necklaces, watches, etc. Please bring a container of filtered mineral water so you can begin hydrating immediately after your session. Some clients bring a notepad with a pen to take notes afterward.

Some clients choose to book 30 minutes of Reiki Energy Healing at the end of their massages, so in that case, the clothes are already off and do not need to be put back on unless the client would prefer that. In this case, I will exit the room to allow for total privacy and knock before reentering.

Reiki has aided in healing virtually every known illness, injury, pain and disease including serious problems like multiple sclerosis, heart disease and cancer as well as skin problems, cuts, bruises, broken bones, flus, colds, sore throats, sunburns, fatigue, headaches, sprains and strains just to name a few.

One doesn’t need to be suffering something just physically to receive regular Reiki treatments, however. It is also beneficial for mental, emotional and spiritual issues such as anxiety, depression, insomnia, emotional trauma, abuse, grief, stress and more since It works with all levels of an individual to restore the healthy flow of Ki, not just one. A person can also continue, and are encouraged, to receive regular medical or psychological treatment while receiving Reiki with improved results by reducing negative side effects such as those from chemotherapy and surgery. It shortens healing time, reduces or eliminates pain and reduces stress. It has been regularly noted that patients receiving Reiki leave the hospital earlier than those who don’t.

Reiki stimulates the body’s own ability to heal. By drinking filtered mineral water, you are facilitating and aiding your body’s natural healing response to the Reiki healing energy.
