What is Reiki?

Reiki is an energy therapy that works with the body’s own remarkable healing capabilities. It helps to promote and accelerate the natural healing process and restore balance on all levels, physical, mental and emotional.

Reiki is totally safe and complementary to any form of treatment, be it natural or conventional, and can often be used in circumstances where other therapies may be contraindicated.

Reiki can be used by anyone of any age or physical circumstance as the transmission of the Reiki energy is non-draining and not dependent on the health or the belief systems of the practitioner. Humans, animals and plants can all benefit from the use of Reiki.

A Reiki treatment is done through the hands.  Simply by placing your hands on yourself or others you activate the flow of energy with no movement or posture.  The Reiki energy will be used by the body to help heal, rejuvenate and reinvigorate.  Whatever health or wellness issue you suffer from, including physical ailments, disease, stress or anxiety, and any emotional or trauma based issues can often be helped with Reiki in a very gentle and releasing way.

What can Reiki do for me?

Reiki:

- Enables you to take responsibility for your own health and well-being
- Dramatically reduces stress and anxiety
- Increases energy and vitality
- Gives a sense of peace and calm
- Effectively treats a wide range of ailments and disease
- Provides a ‘first aid kit’ in the palm of your hands.

According to the Reiki Centre Survey carried out in March 2010, Reiki is overwhelming successful for increasing positive mental states:

- 87% of people noticed more peace after Reiki
- 80% noticed more happiness
- 80% experienced less stress

Learning Reiki:

Anyone can learn Reiki and you need no prior qualifications to attend a Reiki Level One class.  After the class the Reiki energy is present for life and can be activated through your hands any time you wish to treat yourself or others.  Reiki is so easy to use that it is ideal for lay people who are not familiar with natural health and methods of healing as it provides an excellent foundation for exploring other types of modalities.

The Reiki energy flows through your hands as if by osmosis; no intention, thought or belief is required to activate the Reiki and no diagnosis or direction is required during the healing process.  Healing sessions typically last from 30 to 60 minutes and usually result in states of deep relaxation and calm.  Students normally report feeling calmer, less stressed and less anxious within weeks of completing the workshop.  Many also report better quality sleep, less pain or headaches and over time much stronger immune systems and less illness.

During the Workshops, understanding the Reiki phenomenon and energy, healing, disease, and our internal energy systems are discussed and explored.  The Workshop also has plenty of interactive sessions to practice giving Reiki treatments to get you comfortable with your new found skill.  The beginners courses are held either over two full days, usually a weekend or three weekday mornings.

Please come along to one of the Monthly Talks or Reiki Meditations for more information and also a chance to experience Reiki for yourself or book in for one of our wonderful Reiki Healing Sessions.

What is a Reiki Healing session?

Reiki healing is excellent for stress relief, anxiety, and regaining balance.  A healing session is when a Reiki practitioner gives you a Reiki treatment whereby energy passes through their hands and into your body, providing you an energy boost.  The general uses would encompass anything from general stress relief and revitalizing to treatment for serious ailments, pain, or disease patterns.  Treatments last one hour and after a treatment you can expect to feel very relaxed, calm and rejuvenated, though this varies from session to session depending on what is going on in your body at the time.  For those in pain or suffering from specific ailments, a series of treatments will be required to see significant results, we generally suggest a series of three treatments to kick start your immune system.

A note on Detox: For most clients, a Reiki healing session results in feelings of calmness and peace and a general improvement in their symptoms.  However, it must be cautioned that in a minority of cases the body needs to detox in order for proper healing to take place.  This is especially true if the body has been neglected, or the issues have been ignored or suppressed for a long time.  This is an important point to note as detox can sometimes produce uncomfortable symptoms such as headaches, stomach upsets, aches and pains, tingling in limbs, stiffness, rash or skin inflammation, heightened emotions or emotional releases.  Detox symptoms of course are rare, and are a natural process of the body healing.  These symptoms are a great sign (better out than in!) that the body is releasing toxins that could otherwise cause disease later on.

The process of 3 successive treatments is specifically designed to ensure any detox is supported through the Reiki treatments and the shift happens as smoothly and quickly as possible.
