FAQS
WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT FROM MY FIRST SESSION?
A full Reiki session is usually between 45 minutes to an hour long. The client will be fully reclined on a massage table or seated in a chair if preferred. You will be fully clothed with shoes and any bulky items of jewellery removed.
During the session a light gentle touch is used or the hands are held a few inches/centimeters above the body with no actual touch. There are standard hand placements that begin at the head and end at the feet, all hand placements avoid all sensitive body parts. It is perfectly fine if no touch is preferred during the treatment and down to the clients preference.
IS REIKI SAFE DURING PREGNANCY OR CHRONICÂ MEDICAL CONDITIONS
Reiki is a wonderful complement in a health or wellness plan. Reiki is not harmful in anyway shape or form.
It supports your work with your primary care providers. Please see the IARP web site at https://iarp.org for articles on Reiki and how it may be of benefit with medical issues, pregnancy, life stages, and more.
​
Alternatively please always contact your Dr or Health Care Professional for advice if you are not sure and considering a treatment.
WHAT DOES REIKI FEEL LIKE
You may feel a very slight tingling, heat, rush of energy, visions of light or nothing at all. The sensations or lack of is not a barometer of the Reiki healing, it is session dependant and also how your body senses and responds to energy. Reiki healing continues working in the days after the treatment. You will feel a sense of peace, clarity and calm in your mind and in your physical body in general. It is different for all clients but deep relaxation is almost always felt.
​
After the treatment drink plenty of water to hydrate your body, as your body’s energy system may be moving at a more optimum rate, so please care for yourself with water and healthy food during the day. It is beneficial to spend some quiet time that day or evening after your session, as you may have some insights and further mental clarity as your body continues to process the Reiki session.
