Reiki
Reiki is an ancient, non-intrusive complementary therapy. A hands-on healing technique, Reiki enhances the body's own innate ability to heal itself on all levels. It helps restore balance and harmony to the mind, body and spirit. The energy involved in Reiki healing is the universal energy that surrounds all life. Reiki is used throughout the world by people of all creeds and belief systems. Reiki can benefit everyone. Everyone has the ability to use Reiki, however, most adults have closed off to the energy they were naturally channelling as children. Years of conditioning and the general ups and downs of life contribute to this.
How Reiki works
We all have an energy field (aura) surrounding our physical body. As we go through life we place demands on our energy field. During a Reiki treatment this energy field can re-energise. Reiki restores the natural balance of the body, providing deep relaxation and bringing a sense of peace and well-being. It is called universal life energy because it draws upon the healing energy of the universe rather than the energy of the practitioner. As a qualified Reiki Practitioner/Teacher, I have been professionally trained to channel the Reiki energy. Reiki will pass through clothing, bandages, plaster casts or braces so anyone can avail of a Reiki treatment.

What to expect during a treatment and how many sessions;
Generally, clients can feel a deep sense of relaxation, heat, tingling, coolness and energy flowing during a Reiki treatment. Reiki will flow to where your body needs it. Many people go into a deep relaxed state during the treatment. Usually, a Reiki treatment lasts one hour. Someone who has a chronic condition is usually advised to have a weekly Reiki treatment for four to six weeks for the energy to build up in the system. Treatments can then be reviewed by the client and myself. People with acute conditions may notice lasting improvements after two treatments. No two treatments are the same, as Reiki works on physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels.People who want relief from an acute condition or an acute exacerbation of an existing condition, may notice results quicker than a person presenting with a chronic condition. It is highly recommended to have Reiki Treatments to maintain health when you are well. As Reiki helps to boost your immune system and reduce stress, regular Reiki treatments are a great way to maintain your health. A Reiki treatment every now and again is a lovely way of not just treating yourself, but being healthier.
