Reiki - an alternative approach to healing

A natural healing energy

Reiki - A Gentle Approach to Healing
Reiki is a non-invasive therapy which is used holistically to restore homeostasis (balance in your body). Reiki's natural healing energy works on every level, not just the physical, and supports the body's ability to heal itself. Developed in Japan by Mikao Usiu during the early part of the last century, the word "Reiki" means universal energy which is a common theme throughout eastern medicine. In Japan the energy is known as Ki, in China its Chi and in India Prana. Acupuncture, T'ai Chi, Qi Kung and Yoga are all based on achieving the free-flow of this energy.

What to expect
A Reiki session is carried out with the client laying down, fully clothed, in a comfortable and peaceful setting. You will be asked to close your eyes and your therapist will talk you through a relaxation process. Your therapist will then place their hands in a series of positions on or over your body. Your body will draw whatever energy it needs. During the session, the Reiki energy may be felt as heat, coolness, mild tingling, a flow of energy, a pulsing sensation or nothing at all. Feeling nothing does not mean that the therapy is not working. Reiki can be deeply relaxing, ease stress and have a calming effect. It is best not to plan anything following your Reiki session and allow yourself to rest afterwards and drink plenty of water.
