REIKI

 
 
 What is Reiki?
Reiki (pronounced “Ray-key”) is a simple Japanese healing technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes natural healing. Reiki
works at every level, physical, mental, emotional and spiritual, and is used by hundreds of thousands of people all over the world, being most well known as a sort of hands-on treatment technique. As its popularity rises in the West an increasing number of people are discovering its benefits and as it continues to also be used alongside conventional medicine, many doctors and nurses now recognise the beneficial effects it has on patients.
 

Where is it from?
Reiki was developed by a man called Mikao Usui in the early 1900s in Japan. He created a simple treatment system for self-healing, for spiritual or self-development, and to treat others.   Eventually Reiki passed to the West and it is now practiced all over the world.  Reiki is not a religion.

Reiki Treatments
Receiving a Reiki treatment is a simple process. The client lies on a treatment table and the practitioner will gently lay their hands on the body in a series of hand positions on the head, torso, and legs, sometimes hovering the hands rather than touching. Each hand position is held for a few minutes. During the treatment, energy (called “chi”) is drawn through the practitioner into the recipient, helping to produce a state of balance. The recipient remains clothed throughout the session.

What can Reiki do?
Anyone can benefit from a course of Reiki treatments, no matter what your age or your state of health. Reiki is a completely natural balancing therapy which relieves stress, boosts the auto-immune system and stimulates the body’s natural healing process and beneficial changes can take place over a fairly short space of time. Reiki can produce: 

  • Deep relaxation
  • Sense of peacefulness
  • Reduced stress & anxiety
  • Boosted energy levels
  • A feeling of inner calm, contentment and serenity
  • A speeding up of the natural healing process

What might I feel?
Deep relaxation, heat from the practitioner‘s hands, perhaps tingling, a feeling of floating or sinking, or perhaps nothing at all. It varies a lot from one person to another. But no matter what you feel during your treatment, Reiki is giving you what you need.

How many Reiki Treatments will I need?
While a one-off Reiki treatment will be beneficial for you, bringing a sense of relaxation,calm and peacefulness, and maybe producing some short-term physical benefits too, the best results come through having a course of treatments with 4-6 sessions at weekly intervals recommended as the optimum. Thereafter many people then just "top up" every few weeks as and when required.  The effects of Reiki build up cumulatively and having a course of treatments helps to produce long-term beneficial changes for you on many levels.
