What is Reiki?
Reiki is a gentle healing practice that originated in Japan. It is based on the idea of universal life force energy – an energy that is believed to flow through all living things.
During a Reiki session, the practitioner channels this energy through their hands to support the body's natural ability to restore balance and wellbeing.
Many people seek Reiki to help them relax, unwind, and create a greater sense of calm and connection within themselves.
How Reiki works
Reiki is a non-invasive treatment in which you remain fully clothed while sitting or lying comfortably.
During the session, I place my hands gently on or just above different areas of your body. Reiki energy is then channelled through my hands to support the flow of energy within your system.
Many people experience a deep sense of relaxation during a session. Some notice feelings of warmth, calm, lightness, or peacefulness, while others simply enjoy the opportunity to slow down and rest.
What Reiki may support
People choose Reiki for many different reasons. It may help to support:
- Stress and tension
- Emotional overwhelm
- Anxiety and worry
- Feeling disconnected or out of balance
- Rest and relaxation
- A greater sense of wellbeing
Every person's experience is unique, and sessions can feel different from one visit to the next.
A simple way to understand Reiki
Think of Reiki as creating space for your mind and body to slow down and reset.
Reiki is based on the belief that universal life force energy can be channelled through the practitioner to where it is needed most. This gentle flow of energy is intended to support balance, relaxation, and overall wellbeing.
You do not need to have any particular beliefs or prior experience to receive Reiki. Many people simply experience it as a calming and nurturing treatment that helps them feel more relaxed, grounded, and connected.
What to expect during a session
We begin with a brief conversation about how you are feeling and what you would like support with.
You can then relax comfortably while receiving Reiki in a quiet, peaceful environment. There is nothing you need to do during the session other than allow yourself time to rest.
Many clients leave feeling calmer, lighter, and better able to navigate the demands of everyday life.
Reiki offers a gentle opportunity to pause, reconnect with yourself, and support your overall wellbeing.
