What is Reiki?

Energy is all around us from the smallest molecule on earth to the vast expanse of the Universe. Every living thing, animate and inanimate, is made up of energy. All living things have an energy field around them, usually referred to as an aura. Each physical body has energy pathways as well. There are many energetic pathways such as Chakras, Meridians and Metabolism to name a few.

Energy vibrates at different frequencies. Negative thoughts, stress and worry causes blocks in our energy pathways. This ultimately leads to "Dis-ease" in our body, mind, soul and spirit. Studies show that talking negatively to your plants can cause them to whither and even die, while talking positively will help them thrive.

Reiki is a very high frequency energy that breaks up energy blocks. Breaking up negative energy blocks eases energy flow helping the body, mind and soul heal. Reiki is a loving and positive life force energy that is channeled from the Universe. Every Culture refers to this life force energy: in Chinese it is Chi, in Japanese it is Ki, in Hebrew it is Chai and in Hindu it is Prana.

Reiki is a positive energy that goes to the highest good for all involved. It can never cause harm.

Is Reiki Safe for Everyone?

Yes. Reiki is a complementary therapy that is safe for everyone regardless of age or health condition. It is a gentle, non-invasive therapy that enhances the body's ability to heal itself and return to a state of balance and harmony. Reiki energy does not cause harm or interfere with any medical or alternative treatment someone may be receiving. Reiki is safe for infants, children, adults and even animals. 

Reiki is not a replacement for Medical or Professional treatment.

What is a Reiki Session like?

A Reiki session is a gentle, calming experience that works with the body’s natural energy to promote balance and healing. Before the Reiki Session, we will have a brief discussion about your concerns and goals for the treatment.  During the Session you will remain fully clothed on a comfortable treatment table.  (If you prefer, you can also receive Reiki in a seated position). During the session, I will channel Reiki through my hands using light touch or hovering above your body. You may experience sensations of warmth, tingling, vibration and emotional release. Some people do not feel any sensations, however, after the session most feel deeply relaxed.  Clients usually report less stress and pain as well as an increase in vitality after their session. Each session is unique to the individual because the Reiki energy will support your highest good.

How long does a Reiki Session last?

Most Reiki sessions last 60 minutes.  However, if you have multiple issues to address or deep energy blocks you will benefit from a 90-minute session.  I also offer a 30-minute session for Clients who want to experience the energy briefly.
