Reiki
What is reiki?
Reiki is an ancient form of channelled universal energy healing, thought to date back to ancient times and rediscovered in the early part of the last century by Dr. Usui, a Japanese scholar and Buddhist monk. Trainee practitioners receive several attunements from a Reiki Master, over a period of months / years in which sacred symbols are placed within their crown chakra.
Once attuned, the intention from the heart to channel this universal healing energy, is enough to cause the energy to flow through the hands of the practitioner.
What happens during a session?
The client lies, fully clothed on a couch, usually covered over with blankets to keep them warm.
What can you expect?
Some people are aware of warmth, coolness or tingling sensations emanating through the palms of the therapist - some may not feel anything other than a state of relaxation.
What can reiki acheive?
Reiki has been proven to considerably improve psychosomatic problems and may be of benefit to palliative care patients. It has been known to lower blood pressure and insulin levels.
In essence it is a relaxing experience which is unique to each person. The recipient will utilise the reiki energy in whatever manner is helpful to them as an individual.
It is not suitable to be used on broken bones or patients fitted with pacemakers.
