Reiki is an ancient healing therapy dating back to around 3,000 BC. The word itself is Japanese and means ‘Universal Life Energy’.
During a treatment, lasting about one hour, the receiver lies fully clothed on a treatment couch. The practitioner radiates the Reiki energy from their hands into the client’s body. The receiver often experiences a sense of deep relaxation and peace and may sometimes feel a pleasant tingling sensation and heat coming from the practitioner’s hands. The client will receive the energy where they need it most - the experience is totally individual.
Reiki effectively reduces stress and anxiety and balances the emotions. It also excels in healing the physical body by detecting and removing energy blocks.
