What is Reiki
Reiki (pronounced “Ray-kee”) is a natural and relaxing healing modality used to promote and restore emotional well-being. It is holistic and works on the body, mind and spirit by stimulating a person’s own natural healing abilities. Reiki has been used for hundreds, if not thousands of years, as a non-invasive means to improve relaxation, natural healing, relieve stress, release emotional blockages and support other medical modalities including traditional therapies.
As a certified Reiki Master / Teacher, Leslie skillfully utilizes this gentle touch therapy and its specific techniques to transfer and redirect energy within the client to enhance the body’s natural ability to restore balance which promotes self-healing.
What to Expect During a Reiki Session
Receiving Reiki is a simple process in which the client lies on a treatment table and the practitioner gently lays their hands on the body in a series of hand positions on the head, torso, and legs, sometimes hovering the hands over the body rather than touching. Each hand position may be held for a few minutes. During the treatment, energy (called “chi”) is drawn through the practitioner into the recipient, helping to produce a state of balance. The recipient remains clothed throughout the session.
What You Might Feel During a Reiki Session
While everyone experiences Reiki differently, and each session may be different from the last when having a series of sessions, some people feel warmth, or tingling, pulsing or waves of energy. Some people will feel relaxed, some sleepy, while others will feel energized or invigorated. Some see colours or visions, and others may have an emotional release (tears), often bringing on a feeling of lightness after the fact. Reiki may increase stamina and vitality, clarity and harmony. Others may not sense the energy at all however; Reiki will still work for them just as well as it works for those who do feel it.
Regardless of what you feel during the session, one thing is for sure, a Reiki session can leave you with a sense of awareness and balance of your mind, body and spirit.
