How does it work?

Reiki energy is channelled through the healer’s hands to the client via a number of hand positions on the head and body. The client remains fully clothed and covered with a blanket throughout.

As a living being we constantly have energy flowing through us and this helps us to remain healthy. Reiki energy travels through our bodies on special energy lines or meridians. If these meridians become blocked, this stops energy from flowing in all parts of the physical body. This can then lead to illness, because fresh vital energy cannot get through.

Reiki gently flows along the energy pathways of the body, clearing any blockages it finds, and sending healing to where it is needed most, thus stimulating health. Some people feel sensations of heat or cold coming from the Reiki practitioner’s hands, but most people report a feeling of relaxation, peace and calm.

Reiki works on all levels, the spiritual, emotional and the physical and balancing the mind, body and spirit.

Reiki is not just for healing, it is very good for relieving stress, and is wonderful when used for either relaxation purposes, or topping up the body’s energy systems.
