Reiki Explained

 Reiki is an ancient form of hands on healing. Its origin dating back many thousands of years to the time before Christ & Buddha. It was rediscovered in the 1800’s by Dr. Mikao Usui a theologian, Dr. Usui developed this healing system from ancient Buddhist teachings after many years of study, research and meditation.

Reiki is a Japanese word which means Universal Life Force Energy. Rei means universal knowledge, present everywhere, Ki is the energy that gives life to all living things and which can be activated for the purpose of healing. Ki is also known as Chi, Prana and Spirit, according to different cultures.

 How It Works

The Reiki healer acts as a channel for this life energy which the recipient of the treatment draws via the healer, activating the body’s natural ability to heal itself. Reiki goes to wherever it is needed working on mind, body and spirit, releasing blocked energies, cleansing the body of toxins and working to create a state of balance.

 The Treatment

The Treatment of Reiki is a very simple yet powerful and relaxing process. Treatments and frequency are individually tailored to the clients needs and condition. Most treatments last about thirty minutes to an hour, which is carried out on a healing couch or a chair. The client remains fully clothed whilst the therapist works on various positions on the body. The client and/or the therapist may experience sensations such as coloured lights, numbness, warmth or coldness, tingling, twitches and deep relaxation as the body receives the life force energy and the blockages are removed.

After Care

Immediately after your Reiki session, it is suggest you take some time to enjoy the deep state of relaxation and to slowly come back to full awareness.
Expect the body to detoxify. You might have to go to the bathroom more frequently, or your skin might release toxins. To help the detoxification process, as a Reiki recipient, you should drink lots of water during & after treatment
