Reiki

Reiki is a Japanese healing technique for energetic healing, grounding, and balancing. In a session, clients lay down, clothed, on a comfortable massage table. A Reiki practitioner places their hands lightly on top of or just over the client’s body. Instead of working the body tissue as one does in massage, the Reiki practitioner’s hands become a conduit for universal energy that is passed onto the client’s body and energy field. Listening to and assisting the body’s natural intelligence, the Reiki practitioner directs energy towards the client to soothe, strengthen, and heal them. Sometimes, crystals and high-quality essential oils are used to support the treatment’s intention and integration. Reiki is especially powerful in relieving anxiety, depression, pain, and stress, but it can benefit a multitude of conditions, especially with cumulative treatments and in conjunction with other healing modalities. Sessions can feel vulnerable as emotions stored from past traumas or injuries are brought into awareness for reintegration or release. After a session, clients typically feel at ease with themselves and their surroundings.
