Reiki is a form of energy healing that helps the recipient tap into their own innate capacity for recovery and wellness: emotional, physical and spiritual. Modern Reiki practices vary, but typically the Reiki healer uses their hands to restore and rebalance the recipient's energy flows during a treatment session. This is accomplished through either light touch or placement of their hands in the air just above the recipient's head, torso, and limbs.

Reiki is an energy healing technique that promotes relaxation and reduces stress and anxiety. Reiki practitioners use their hands to deliver energy to the body, improving the flow and balance of the energy to support healing. 

Reiki is both safe and extremely beneficial to an unborn child and their pregnant mother.

Reiki can help during pregnancy in various ways such as:

Reiki alleviates morning sickness.

Reiki reducing stress and tiredness.

Reiki stimulates the babies’ healthy development.

Reiki can be used to treat painful muscles, joints or the spine.

Reiki strengthens the bond between a mother and her baby.

Reiki keeps the mind body and spirit in balance reducing the chances of post natal depression.

Reiki nourishes the foetus with love and the universal life force.

It gently comforts, protects and envelops the unborn baby.

Babies:

Reiki can accelerate the recovery time of the mother and baby after the birth. It is especially good for caesareans sections and healing the various scars and stitches often associated with childbirth.

Reiki can be used to heal the babies’ umbilical cord.

Reiki can be used to vitalised and nourish the mother’s milk if the baby is breast feed.

Alternatively, if the baby is to be bottled feed the formula can be treated with Reiki.

Reiki stimulates balance in the new born baby.

Reiki can be used to help treat cradle cap, colic and wind.

Important Note: Always consult your doctor no matter how trivial it may seem if you are concerned about yourself or your baby during pregnancy or postnatally.

Reiki is not an alternative to conventional medicine—it is a “complementary” therapy that can be implemented alongside all other medical and therapeutic techniques.

It can be an effective alternative treatment for those experiencing some of the symptoms that come with the peri menopause and menopause. A gentle but powerful complimentary therapy, Reiki helps to balance various systems in the body, including the hormonal system.

You do not need to get undressed for a Reiki session. You should wear comfortable, breathable clothing that allows you to move freely. Some people prefer to wear loose-fitting clothing, while others prefer to wear more fitted clothing. If you have booked an Aroma Reiki or Aroma Touch Session then you will need to remove your top and socks for the application of the oils. Your dignity will of course be protected. Finally, make sure you remove belts and other bulky items before the session starts.  

There is very little to no talking during sessions, which typically last between 60 and 90 minutes. An essential piece is the presence and state of being of the Reiki practitioner, whose training also includes ways to support their own “grounding.” Before and after the session we will have time to chat and assess your reasons for coming and how you feel following the session.

I will use my hands to restore and rebalance your energy flow during a treatment session. This is accomplished through either light touch or placement of my hands in the air just above your head, torso, and limbs.

You may bring your mobile phone to your appointment but I would ask for it to be switch off during the treatment.

During the Reiki session clients may feel waves of subtle energy gently moving through their body. Others may experience heat or coolness from my hands and perhaps even see comforting colours or visions. While these are normal responses, it is also completely common to “feel” nothing during the session, but still be left with a sense of deep relaxation, overall wellbeing and inner peace. What is important to remember is that Reiki works on all levels, so even though there might not be a physical sensation, the energy could be working on a deep emotional or spiritual level.

After a Reiki session, you may feel strong emotions for the next few days as you release and go through an emotional detox. If you feel the need to rest, make time for it. Drink extra water to help cleanse yourself of the stress hormones and give your body a good healing environment. 

Clients can experience a wide range of things during and after a Reiki session. They can experience hot or cold sensations, tingling, literal energy movement, lightness, heaviness, emotions rising or falling away, thoughts calming, sleepiness or even nothing. If you are one of those that feel nothing, don't dismay. It doesn't mean the Reiki didn't work! Energy healing is also cumulative so it can take multiple sessions for the energy to release/open any blocks. Each session is specialised to each individual's needs, so each reaction during and after will be different. Ideally, you want to give yourself a little space after a session to let it integrate: take this time to drink some water, stretch, walk, or nap if you want. Often people notice that they feel better later on in the day, or when they wake the next morning.

While the effects of a Reiki session on you will ultimately vary from person to person. Some accounts seem to describe benefits as lasting for days, others months, and some even longer. Booking yourself in for a regular session will ensure the benefits are ongoing.

Crystal healing is an energy based system. This means it is based on the belief that we are all made up of different energies and when they become stagnant, unbalanced or blocked it can cause illness, stress, anxiety, low mood. The premise is that crystals can help unblock, balance and direct energy to where it is most needed. Helping and supporting the body to heal in a therapeutic way. Everything in the Universe is made of energy. Energy moves through every cell of your body and in every atom of air you breathe. Crystals are a wonderful addition to the Reiki healing helping to clear, balance and support.
