Reiki is a simple, natural, and safe method of relaxation and stress reduction that supports overall health and well-being.
Reiki is deeply balancing and nourishing on every level—physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. It works by releasing blocked or stagnant energy and re-establishing its natural flow throughout the system, thereby encouraging the body’s own innate healing processes.
A typical Reiki session involves the practitioner gently placing their hands on or just above the recipient’s body. Reiki is equally effective when offered at a distance, including virtual or distance Reiki sessions. During the treatment, the recipient remains fully clothed, resting comfortably in a supported seated or lying position.
Reiki energy may be experienced in many different ways. Most commonly, recipients report a deep sense of peace, lightness, and relaxation—often likened to a meditative state. Some experience physical sensations such as warmth, heat, tingling, or the feeling of energy moving through the body. Others notice a release of physical or emotional tension, leaving them feeling lighter, clearer, and more energized. Some may perceive colours or gain inner insights. Each session is unique, and every experience is equally valid. Reiki energy naturally adapts to the individual’s needs—your session will be exactly what is needed for you.
Reiki may be offered alongside any healthcare program and can support and complement a wide range of treatments. It has been incorporated into many hospitals, hospices, and wellness settings as part of integrative care.
Reiki is a gentle yet powerful healing modality beneficial for people of all ages. Adults, babies, children, animals, and even plants respond beautifully to Reiki’s healing energy.
