What is Reiki?

Reiki–which means ‘universal life-force energy’, is a non-invasive healing system with a spiritual aspect.  It was was taught by Dr Mikao Usui from Japan.  The Reiki practitioner has been attuned to channel a particular frequency of vibrational energy (Reiki) to the recipient which works towards their path of self -realisation.   The intention of the practitioner and recipient is to always work for the highest good of the person concerned and all associated entanglements.  

 

The World Health Organisation defines health as a ‘state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease’.  The practice of Reiki works towards creating a sense of physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being which impacts positively on the individuals’ interactions in their environment.

 

Reiki is an ideal complementary therapy that supports professional and medical, mental treatments.

The treatment is accepted in UK hospitals as a relaxation therapy and no evidence can be found of any harm caused.

 

Reiki promotes and teaches principles for living a good life:

• Just for today, I will let go of anger

• Just for today, I will let go of worry

• Today I will count my many blessings

• Today I will do my work honestly

• Today, I will be kind to every living creature

What happens in a Reiki session?

Reiki is best held in a peaceful setting, but it can be carried out anywhere. The recipient will sit in a comfortable chair or lie on a therapy couch, fully clothed and in most cases – without shoes. There may or may not be music, depending on the client/patient preference.

​

The practitioner scans the client’s aura by moving their hands over the client’s/patient’s body while focusing on any sensations in her hands and own body - which will give indications of areas of potential energy blocks and / or stagnant energy.

​

Thereafter, the practitioner channels the healing energy to the recipient.  The recipients innate intelligence receives the energy and uses it to enable healing on the various physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels of the human being. 

​

The practitioner places their hands lightly on or above specific areas of the head, limbs, and torso using different hand shapes, for between 3 and 5 minutes. During this time, the practitioner’s hands may be warm and tingling or cold or prickly.  Each sensation gives the practitioner an indication of the energetic state of that part of the body.  Once the practitioner senses a normal flow of energy in the area, they can move onto the next area in the body.

​

Once the treatment is complete, the practitioner will discuss her findings with the client/patient.  The client is encourage to contemplate and become more conscious of information that they resonate with so that they can make healthy changes in their lifestyle.
