WHAT IS REIKI?...

The system of Reiki is a Japanese technique of energy work that helps to promote harmony and balance. It is an effective, non invasive treatment that enhances the body’s natural healing ability whilst energising and promoting overall wellness. Reiki works directly on restoring balance on all levels; physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually.

Reiki encourages deep relaxation and helps the body release stress and tension, dissolve energy blocks and promote the natural balance between mind, body and spirit. Reiki can help relieve pain and support physical healing; compliment medical treatment & other therapies; clear the mind and improve focus as you feel grounded & centred. Reiki can enhance everyday living, and may help to promote the development of a healthier, more resourceful state of being.

Literally translated, Reiki means, Life-Force Energy and it is this concentrated, fine attunement to Life-Force Energy that you experience during a session. A Reiki treatment is holistic, caring for the ‘whole’ person; mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and physically. I find that Reiki is such a personal experience and 'what Reiki is' has subtle differences for each of us. Each definition that I have read, has at it's core the common theme that Reiki brings us back to balance and in doing so allows the body, mind and spirit to do what it does best - work in harmony...

For me, Reiki is a journey and a way of life. It underpins everything I am and everything I do. Being in Reiki is a blessing that has, from the start, taught me to live with compassion, patience, empathy and connection. It is the common thread that links all sentient beings, the life-force energy that is in all things...

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?...

Reiki is a journey to balance and harmony, unlocking your body's innate ability to heal. Experience profound relaxation, stress reduction, and a heightened sense of well-being as universal life force energy flows through you. Whether seeking relief from physical discomfort or aiming to enhance your emotional and mental resilience, Reiki is a gentle yet powerful tool.

Illness can be a time of great stress. Reiki can help us cope by encouraging relaxation and bringing balance to both mind and emotions. Benefits reported by patients include deep relaxation promoting a calm, peaceful sense of well being; on all levels.

Reiki encourages and supports positive personal choices such as improving diet, taking more exercise, devoting time for rest or leisure activities, and may reduce the need for alcohol and tobacco.

Encouraging greater inner harmony and balance, regular Reiki treatments promote a calmer response to life’s challenges. Reiki’s gentle energy is easily adapted to most medical conditions and may be used safely by people of all ages, including the newborn, pregnant mothers, surgical patients, the frail and the elderly, in any situation. Reiki can enhance everyday living, and regular sessions may help to promote development of a healthier, more resourceful state of being.

THE POWER OF INTENTION...

Setting a realistic intention and creating a focus in everyday life can have a profound effect on our health and wellbeing. 'Where Focus Goes, Energy Flows'... I find that holding an intention prior to a Reiki Session may help us to focus our mental energy, however it is important not to attach ourselves to a particular outcome, Reiki will always flow where it is most needed and this may not be where we think it will be! Indeed we can hold the intention to 'feel relaxed' or to 'experience Reiki intently' or 'to relieve stress'. Intention is personal to YOU. We will hold space for your intention with each session.
