What is Reiki
Rei – Ki (pronounced Ray-Key) is a system of natural healing involving the laying on of hands, and is very likely to be thousands of years old. It is widely believed that the technique was first used by Tibetian Buddist monks and was rediscovered in the 1800’s by Mikao Usui.
The Usui system of Reiki healing is a very simple yet powerful healing technique that is easily learnt, easily given and received by anyone.

What will my first session be like?
I will make a note of your details, You will be in a beautiful relaxing treatment room, I will ask you to lay on your back fully clothed (no shoes)on a treatment table with a soft comforting cover over you, I will ask you to take some deep breaths , there will be some relaxing music playing softly in the back ground and candles lit along with some incense burning, you will drift off into a wonderfully relaxed state, sinking deeper and deeper into the treatment table, I will ask you to turn over onto your front and will place my hands on your back & feet, you will feel an intense heat, once I have finished you will awaken feeling totally relaxed and at peace, it will be very important that you drink plenty of water after your session and avoid caffeine and alcohol so that your body can absorb the therapeutic benefits from the Reiki.

Reiki Healing is quite a practised process and in this process, the Reiki energy flows to the patient from the Reiki healing practitioners. The client remains fully clothed and the practitioner uses different hand positions around the head, shoulders, stomach and feet. However, depending on the amount of Reiki the client needs in a particular position, the Reiki healing process is carried on. It is one of the safest treatments and can be implemented even on children and pregnant women.
