Reiki
The practice of reiki is based on the belief that life force energy flows through all living things, and when this energy becomes blocked, it can lead to physical and emotional imbalances. By restoring the balance of this energy, reiki is said to promote healing on all levels - mind, body, and spirit.

How does Reiki work?
Reiki healing involves the transfer of energy from a practitioner's hands to a patient's body to promote physical, emotional, and spiritual healing. The practice of Reiki is based on the idea that there is a universal life force energy that flows through all living things, and that this energy can be channeled and directed to promote healing.
During a Reiki session, the practitioner places their hands on or near the patient's body in a series of hand positions, which correspond to different energy centers, or chakras, in the body. The practitioner then channels the energy through their hands to the patient, with the intention of restoring balance and promoting healing.
What to expect in a typical Reiki session?
A typical Reiki session can vary depending on the practitioner's approach and the client's individual needs. The length of a Reiki session can vary, but typically lasts between 30 minutes to an hour. Some practitioners may also offer longer or shorter sessions, depending on the client's individual needs. Here's a general overview of what you can expect during a Reiki session:
Setting the scene: The practitioner will typically create a calm and peaceful environment for the session. This may involve dimming the lights, playing soft music, or using aromatherapy candles or essential oils to help create a relaxing atmosphere.
Introduction and consultation: The practitioner will typically introduce themselves and explain what Reiki is and how the session will proceed. They may also ask the client about their reasons for seeking Reiki and any specific areas of concern.
The Reiki session: The client will typically lie down or sit comfortably, fully clothed, while the practitioner begins the Reiki session. The practitioner will place their hands on or near different parts of the client's body, using a series of hand positions or focusing on specific areas of the body that are in need of healing. The client may feel a sensation of warmth, tingling, or relaxation as the energy is transferred.
Closing the session: The practitioner will typically bring the session to a close by gently removing their hands and offering any final words of guidance or support. The client may be encouraged to take a few moments to rest and relax before getting up and resuming their day.
Can Reiki be done remotely?
Yes, Reiki can be done remotely, also known as distance Reiki. Distance Reiki works on the principle that energy is not limited by time or space, and can be transmitted over distance. In a distance Reiki session, the client and practitioner do not need to be physically present with one another. Instead, the practitioner can channel Reiki energy to the client from a distance, using visualization and intention.
Distance Reiki can be particularly useful for clients who are unable to attend an in-person session due to physical distance, mobility issues, or other factors.
Who Might Want to Try Reiki? Are There Any Risks?
Reiki is generally considered safe for most people, and may be beneficial for those seeking relief from stress, anxiety, pain, or other physical or emotional issues. Here are a few examples of people who may want to try Reiki:
People experiencing stress and anxiety: Reiki is often used as a tool for stress reduction and relaxation. Many people report feeling a sense of calm and peace after a Reiki session, which may help to reduce symptoms of stress and anxiety.
Those with chronic pain or illness: Reiki may help to reduce pain and inflammation, and promote overall wellness. While Reiki should not be used as a replacement for traditional medical treatment, it may be used as a complementary therapy to support overall health and wellbeing.
Cancer patients: Reiki may help to reduce symptoms of cancer and side effects of cancer treatments, such as pain, nausea, and fatigue. However, it's important to discuss the use of Reiki with your healthcare provider before incorporating it into your treatment plan.
Those seeking spiritual or emotional healing: Reiki is often used as a tool for spiritual or emotional healing, and may help to promote a sense of inner peace and wellbeing.
