What is Reiki?

Reiki is a Japanese energy healing technique that channels universal life force energy to promote healing, balance, and wellness. Reiki is a gentle “hands on” or “hands free” technique. The Reiki practitioner holds their hands a couple inches above the clients body (the aura field) using sweeping motions. Reiki aims to balance the body’s energy centers (the chakras) and clear energy blockages. Reiki is a holistic practice that addresses emotional, physical, and spiritual aspects of well-being.

Description of a Typical Session

---

The morning of your session I suggest increasing your intake of water. If you don’t drink water juice is ok. You want to hydrate to help with the process of releasing toxins. HYDRATE! HYDRATE! HYDRATE! Please dress comfortably in loose fitting clothing.

There isn’t a need to arrive more than 5 minutes early. First time clients should plan your session to last up to 60-90 minutes long. Time varies per person. I will describe in full what to expect before we start and answer and any questions.

For the session, you will rest comfortably (fully clothed) on a massage table. If you are unable to lay down Reiki can also be performed with you sitting in a chair. The session will then proceed with the me moving through specific standard Reiki hand positions beginning at your head or feet. You might feel a warming sensation or a tingling during the session or nothing at all but sheer relaxation.  A session can either be hands-on, where I will apply a light touch during the session, or hands-off where I will hold my hands slightly above your body. If you prefer not to be touched you can indicate this to me before we begin.

I also use a variety of crystals (Crystal Healing) and will place them on the chakras or around the body.  Different crystals contain unique energy that when placed on a chakra, drawing energy to or from that chakra, increasing energy flow and balance. For example…using a Rose Quartz will help to bring in unconditional self-love and peace, aiding with emotional pain of grief or anger.

Some sessions I may be guided to do Shamanic Healing. I will step myself aside and allow spirit to enter, guide me, assist or take over with the healing as needed.

Sound Therapy (Tibetan Singing Bowl or Quartz Singing Bowl) is also offered as part of the healing sessions. The vibrations of the bowls help in order to relax your mind and body. Rattles, a Shamanic drum, rainstick or bells may also be used.

I will cleanse your energy field by smudging you and use aromatherapy spray if called to do so.

Once the session is over I will gently rub your shoulder, giving you time to “come back”. If needed for additional grounding I may have you hold on to stones such as Smokey Quartz or Hematite. When feeling alert I will have you slowly sit up and offer you some water. From there I will share anything I picked up on during the session and answer any questions you may have about the experience.
