Reiki

Reiki energy work is healing for the following reasons:

• It aids in the removal of blockages & negative energy in the body

• It is supportive to any medical treatments you are experiencing

• It brings the body & mind into an even balance

• It works on all levels: physical, mental, emotional, spiritual

• It aids in helping one process loss, trauma and grief

• It helps boost the immune system 

What does a Reiki treatment look like?

• It is gentle and noninvasive

• It can include light physical touch of the practitioners hands or no touch at all, if the client prefers

• There is no disrobing of clothes, but loose fitting, comfortable clothes are recommended during a session 

Reactions and benefits to a Reiki treatment look different for everyone and are very unique to one’s own healing process. Some benefits and reactions include:

• Sensations of warmth, well-being and loving energy in the body

• Peacefulness and quiet in the mind

• Calming of the nervous system

• A feeling of deep relaxation

• Relief of emotional stress or anxiety 

• Improvement of overall well-being in the body and mind

• You may feel more tired when you leave a session, but then feel improvement later in the day

It is always a good idea to be gentle and kind with yourself after any type of energy and holistic healing practice. Aftercare post Reiki session might include the following:

• Drinking plenty of filtered water to make sure the body is hydrated

• Scheduling in some extra time in your day to rest or reflect on what the experience was like

• Making an effort to not rush into the rest of your day

• Lots of deep and slow breathing to keep your nervous system calm
