What is it and how can it help you?
Originating in Japan, Reiki works by channelling universal life force energy through the hands of a trained practitioner. It’s typically done with the client fully clothed, lying down or seated, while the practitioner places their hands lightly on or just above the body.
How Does it work?
Everything in the body is energy. When your energy becomes blocked, depleted, or unbalanced—due to stress, trauma, illness, or emotional overwhelm—it can lead to fatigue, tension, and a sense of disconnection. Reiki can help rebalance your energy system, bringing a deep sense of calm and restoration. It encourages the body to shift out of “fight-or-flight” and into a state of rest, recovery, and repair.

Who Can Benefit from Reiki?
Reiki is safe and beneficial for people of all ages and conditions. It’s especially supportive for those who:
● Are dealing with stress, burnout, or anxiety
● Are navigating emotional transitions or grief
● Have chronic health conditions or autoimmune challenges
● Want to feel more grounded and balanced
● Are in recovery from trauma or illness
● Are seeking gentle support alongside medical treatment
Reiki works beautifully as a standalone therapy, or it can be combined with other treatments to support deeper healing.
What Happens During a Session?
A typical Reiki session is only 60 minutes. You’ll lie fully clothed on a massage table or sit comfortably in a chair. The practitioner will gently place their hands on or just above specific areas of your body.
You may feel warmth, coolness, or a gentle pulsing sensation—or simply a peaceful stillness. There’s no pressure or manipulation, just a quiet space to relax, receive, and let go.
