Reiki is a hands-on healing treatment. It is a therapy which helps with the growing struggle of our hectic and stressful lifestyle.

Stress is a fact of life and cannot be avoided all the time. By allowing the body to be quiet and giving the mind "time out"; deep relaxation can be experienced. After Reiki sessions it has been shown that over time conditions improve as the person learns to relax and ease away tension and stress.

Reiki is a non-invasive treatment and can be applied safely to any person. In Reiki it is the person that is treated rather than the condition and it is evident that when a person begins to feel better - in turn the condition begins to improve.

The word Reiki is Japanese and means "UNIVERSAL LIFE FORCE" It is an ancient practical therapy for deep relaxation using a hands-on healing technique to rebalance the body. This involves the physical, and especially important, the emotional part of the person by calming and clearing the mind. It is the most perfect and wonderful way to combat day-to-day stress and emotions by aiding relaxation and promoting well-being to the whole system.

Reiki; as mentioned earlier is a hands-on healing treatment; meaning the hands are either held very closely to the body or slightly touching, allowing energy to flow unhindered. This therapy is an essentially wonderful experience and words cannot always describe what is happening during a session.

When receiving Reiki a warm tingling sensation with a great sense of well-being, as well as a relief from physical and/or emotional discomfort can be experienced. A feeling of a new sense of energy or life-force can be felt within.

Reiki is safe to be used to treat any age and anyone, as it is non-invasive and as it works on all levels of the body it can aid in the healing of most symptoms.

When receiving Reiki it is important to be comfortable. As the subject remains fully clothed, loose clothing should be worn.

The therapist's hands will be moving over body and may be placed either over areas or applied with a slight touch.

Reiki starts at the head and works over the body towards the feet at the front and the same pattern is worked on the back.

After a healing session some people may experience a detox or an emotional release, this does not happen every time. A feeling of calmness and deep relaxation is very often experienced as well as feeling tired or very energetic.

Reiki treatment is very beneficial and therapeutic and the answer to "How often should I have a treatment?" is, "always listen to your body as it will tell you".
