What is Reiki?

A
Reiki is a Japanese form of healing that involves the transfer of energy
from practitioner to client to enhance the body's natural ability to heal
itself through the balancing of energy. Reiki utilizes specific techniques
which try to restore and balance the natural life force energy within the
body.
The practice of Reiki (pronounced "Ray-key" and meaning Universal Life
Energy) is an original method of healing, developed by Mikao Usui in Japan
early in the 20th century, which is activated by intention. It works on
every level, not just the physical. Eastern medicine has always recognised
and worked with this energy, which flows through all living things and is
vital to well-being. Known as ‘ki’ in Japan, ‘chi’ in China and ‘prana’ in
India. Acupuncture, T’ai chi and Yoga are also based on the free-flow of
this energy in a person. Reiki is a non-invasive therapy whose purpose is to
treat holistically and to restore homeostasis.
What are the Benefits of Reiki?
Illness can be a time of great stress. Reiki could help you cope by
encouraging relaxation and bringing balance to both mind and emotions.
Benefits include deep relaxation, promoting a calm, peaceful sense of well
being on all levels. Reiki encourages and supports positive personal
choices, such as improving diet, taking more exercise, devoting time for
rest or leisure activities, and may reduce the need for alcohol and tobacco.
Engendering greater inner harmony and balance, regular Reiki treatments
promote a calmer response to life’s challenges.
Reiki’s gentle energy is easily adapted and may be used safely by people of
all ages, including the newborn, pregnant mothers, surgical patients, the
frail and the elderly, in any situation. Being complementary, Reiki could
work effectively alongside orthodox healthcare and natural remedies,
expanding treatment options. Reiki could enhance everyday living, and
regular sessions may help to promote development of a healthier, more
resourceful state of being.
What happens during a Session?
A Reiki treatment is non-diagnostic, non-interventionist, non-manipulative
and no pressure is applied. A session is usually carried out with the
recipient lying down or sitting, in a comfortable and peaceful environment.
There is no need to remove any clothing as Reiki energy passes easily
through all materials, including plaster casts. The practitioner places
their hands gently on or over the body. The recipient automatically draws in
only as much Reiki energy as is needed, using it in whatever way is most
appropriate at the time. Reiki energy has been found to have its own
intelligence and will go to the seat of the difficulty without the Reiki
practitioners direction or will. Reiki may be experienced as a flow of
energy, mild tingling, warmth, coolness, other sensations, or nothing at
all. Reiki is deeply relaxing and has a profoundly calming effect. It is a
good idea to rest for a while afterwards and drink plenty of water over the
next few days. Be responsive to the needs of your body, e.g. resting if
tired, and allow the energy to continue its work after the session ends. The
beneficial effects may be felt for several days.
How Often do I need to have a Session?
Even one single Reiki session can make a difference; however a course of
regular sesions may be more effective. These may be weekly, fortnightly or
less often depending on the needs of the individual. A schedule will be
discussed with you, and reviewed as necessary. This will always be subject
to your own preferences, and can be changed at any time according to
progress. Reiki does not take the place of conventional medicine - always
consult your GP for an acute or infectious condition, and problems of urgent
concern."
