Reiki Healing

Reiki is an energy treatment which operates on many levels and promotes overall well-being. It works holistically to bring a state of balance and harmony.

The treatment lasts about an hour and is given through clothing.

The practitioner gently places her hands in a sequence of positions, on or above the body. Each position is held for a few minutes. Reiki treatment is usually given starting from the head and ending at the feet.

What can Reiki do for you?

Reiki Healing is a gentle but effective form of treatment as well as a life enhancer. Reiki is always totally safe.
These are the benefits of Reiki:

• It induces deep relaxation to soothe and counter stress, anxiety and depression, which in turn dramatically reduces stress and therefore our susceptibility to illness.
• It is highly effective in treating acute physical conditions as well as long-term chronic disease such as asthma, thyroid problems, I.B.S., skin conditions, headaches and migraines.
• It increases our energy and vitality.
• It gives confidence and a sense of well-being.
• It enhances the benefits of all other therapies.
• A Reiki session has the same physiological effect as 3 to 4 hours of deep sleep.
• It can also assist in unlocking your creativity to enable you to reach your true potential.
• It works as part of a health regime to keep mind and body healthy.
• It stimulates the immune system.
• It works on addictions and body toxins.
• Reiki relieves pain and works on the causal level of disease.

What does it feel like to receive Reiki Healing?

The most common experience during the treatment is a sense of peace and relaxation. The recipient feels a flowing sensation, often combined with heat, cold, or tingling. On occasions, some people may also experience some visual scenes.

Reiki works not only with the physical body but also the emotional, mental and spiritual bodies.

Reiki treatment works in bringing about a state of balance and harmony, which flows according to the recipient's needs.
