What is Reiki ?
Reiki originated in Japan in the early 20th century as a form of alternative healing therapy.
​
Reiki, a Japanese healing technique, was developed by Mikao Usui in the early 1900s and is based on the concept of channeling universal life energy to promote physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being through a practitioner's hands to promote relaxation and balance.
The term originates from "Rei," which signifies Universal, and "Ki," representing the
Energy of Life Force.
This gentle approach includes a light touch or the practitioner's hands hovering over
the body's energy centers to balance and harmonize the body, mind, and spirit.
​
​Whilst Reiki is Spiritual in nature, it is not a Religion and can be practised in alignment with your own beliefs.
How can Reiki help ?
Reiki is a holistic practice believed to promote healing and well-being by balancing the body's energy flow. During a Reiki session, a practitioner channels universal life force energy through their hands to the recipient, who typically lies fully clothed on a massage table or sits comfortably. The gentle touch or hovering hands aim to stimulate the body's natural healing processes and promote relaxation, reducing stress and tension.
The effects of Reiki can vary from person to person, but commonly reported benefits include deep relaxation, emotional balance, and reduced pain or discomfort. Many practitioners and recipients describe feeling a sense of peace, clarity, and overall well-being after Reiki sessions. Some individuals find that Reiki helps them cope with emotional challenges, enhances their mindfulness, and improves their quality of sleep.
While scientific evidence supporting Reiki's efficacy is limited, anecdotal reports and some research suggest potential benefits such as immune system support and enhanced healing. However, Reiki should not be seen as a replacement for conventional medical treatment when necessary. Instead, it can complement other forms of healthcare and contribute to a holistic approach to wellness, promoting balance and harmony in body, mind, and spirit.

What is Distance Reiki ?
Distance Reiki involves the transmission of healing energy from a practitioner to a recipient who isn't physically present, enabling healing to take place regardless of distance.
One notable advantage of distance Reiki is the opportunity for recipients to partake in the healing process from the convenience of their own homes, no matter where they are in the world.
During a distance Reiki session, practitioners often establish an energetic connection with recipients through visualization methods, intention setting, and the use of a photograph.
