Reiki
What is Reiki?
Reiki is a form of energy healing from Japan that dates to the 20th century. My training for Reiki was through a traditional Usui Reiki Master and I have personally been practicing for over a year now. Within this system of healing, it is believed there is a Universal Life Energy within everything. During a healing session the practitioner places their hands on or above the recipient’s body in specific pattern and allows the Universal Life Energy to flow through them and into the recipient. This Universal Life energy is accessible to all; as practitioners we are simply acting as a pathway for this energy and are not producing it. This energy then works through the recipient’s body and is believed to help to promote healing on a spiritual, physical, and mental level. Even if you do not believe in this Universal Life Energy, participating in a Reiki session is extremely beneficial in stress reduction due to the deep state of relaxation a recipient is in. Receiving a Reiki healing session is extremely relaxing and many clients say they feel a tingling or warmth during and directly following a session.

What to Expect During a Reiki Healing Session
During a session with me you expect a 15-minute initial consultation to determine what your specific needs are and any questions or concerns can be answered. We will also discuss if you would like aromatherapy and crystal selection added which are included, but optional. After our consultation is over, you will move to the massage table fully clothed where you will lay on your back and be directed through a guided meditation. I find that by starting with a guided meditation the recipient is more open to the healing and finds a deeper state of relaxation. This will only last about 5 minutes. After the meditation has ended you will notice that I will be directing my hands directly above certain points of your body. The technique I will be using is the one I was taught through my Usui Reiki Master. After the session is completed we will have about 5-10 minutes where you will gently ground yourself and we can discuss anything you felt during the session or any concerns. At that point we can set a plan for follow up sessions if needed. Usually, people do three or four sessions over a few weeks in the beginning and then go monthly or every few months as maintenance sessions.
