We are all born with the ability to heal our own bodies and Reiki offers a way to connect with that ability to restore our bodies to health. It is a safe, gentle, non-invasive form of hands-on healing that uses universal life energy channeled through the hands of an initiated Reiki practitioner to the recipient. It is a universal process and does not align itself with any religion or dogma, so it is beneficial to practitioners of any faith. Reiki energy, which is an intelligent, spirit directed energy, knows exactly where to go in the body to work to unblock energies and cleanse toxins from the system, thus creating a state of balance and harmony which promotes relaxation and allows the body to heal itself.
Each session lasts between 45 & 60 minutes. The client remains fully clothed (may remove shoes for added comfort) and may choose to stand, sit, or lie on a massage table to receive treatments. The practitioner may apply their hands directly to the client's body or place them slightly above the body (both methods are equally effective) in a series of hand positions that allow for the entire body to receive treatment. The practitioner may also scan the body for energy blockages and provide treatment in a specific area.
If the client wishes, crystals may be placed on the body at different locations which are determined by the practitioner as best to treat the client’s condition. Each crystal is chosen based on its healing properties and works with the energy treatment to assist in balancing the body.
It is important to note that distance healing is also offered and again it is equally as effective as hands on treatment. It generally takes around 30 minutes and a photograph or person's full name are required for treatment.Reiki treatments can be used for nearly all conditions. This form of energy healing has a long history that includes treatment for virtually every known illness and injury including serious problems like cancer, heart disease, multiple sclerosis as well as headaches, nervousness, anxiety, learning disabilities, ADHD, depression, colds , sore throats, skin disorders, insomnia and impotence and any other imbalance in the body. It is always beneficial and aides to improve the treatment of all other therapies. Today, it is practiced in many hospitals and healing centers to improve the results of medical treatment, acting to reduce side effects of chemotherapy, surgery and other invasive procedures. Above all, it is a great tool for stress reduction and overall relaxation. Treatments can be used to facilitate physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being.
