Reiki Healing Session - 1 Hour

A relaxing treatment which draws on life-force energy - also called Chi, Qi or Prana - to re-balance the body. Reiki helps to shift the body to a healing, harmonious state. It has many benefits, such as stress-relief, improved sleep, more rapid healing post-surgery or post-injury (hence why it's starting to be used in medical settings) and promoting all-round well-being and shifting blocked energies from the body.

Many of us are living on "stress setting" much of the time these days, which can be devastating for our well-being. In Yoga, we say this creates dis-ease in the body, which over time can lead to poor health. When we are in stress mode, we go into the sympathetic body system, which is intended for "fight or flight" situations. During that time, rest and healing cannot take place, as the body is set up for escaping danger and risk. In modern life, we spend alot of time in this sympathetic mode, despite not facing the dangers we did as early humans and when we really needed that fight or flight reflex. Reiki helps us to step back into the parasympathetic body system, which is rest and recuperation mode. Here, we can breathe easier, relax the body, rest better and heal better. Even a short time switching back into the R&R mode cannot be overestimated.

What Happens We will discuss any issues that you are working on or have been bothering you, whether these are physical or emotional, and then you will lay on the treatment couch, or you can be seated if need be. You will remain fully clothed (wear something comfy like joggers and a t-shirt) and do not need to do anything but rest. You just rest back and let the healing flow. Treatment goes between hands-on Reiki, especially if there is a specific injury you are working on (e.g. knee problem, shoulder problem), but can often also involve me hovering my hands over your body. Either way, you will feel energy moving in the form of warmth, coolness (as per the body's needs) or a sense of something shifting inside. This is a very relaxing treatment.

It is recommended when dealing with a specific challenge to book 3 appointments in fairly close succession - this helps you to work on the challenge (if it's something long-term it can take a while to shift) and then start to rebalance and harmonise as that shifts.
