About reiki
Reiki – pronounced ‘ray-key’ – is Japanese for ‘universal life energy’. The therapy was introduced by the Buddhist Mikao Usui and is based on the premise that there are energy fields within the body. Each energy field has a different vibratory level and the reiki practitioner looks to rebalance the vibration for overall wellbeing, deep relaxation and an improved sense of self.
The reiki consultation
During the consultation, you’ll be able to relax on the couch or sit if preferred. Unlike massage therapy, there’s no need to undress for a reiki treatment. The practitioner will rest their hands near or lightly on the body, moving through a sequence of positions with each position being held for a couple of minutes.
It’s gentle, non-invasive and suitable for anyone of any age. The overall feeling is similar to a meditative state of pure relaxation. The practitioner can also work to balance your aura or attune healing if preferred. If you’d like this as part of your session, please request it at the time of booking so that a longer appointment can be arranged.
