What is Reiki?

Reiki originates from early 20th century Japan and means “spiritually guided life force energy”. Reiki practitioners believe that it is this balanced spiritual energy that keeps us healthy. If this spiritual energy becomes blocked or unbalanced, it can cause illness. Reiki practitioners use their hands to direct energy towards your body to stimulate your natural energy to heal itself. Reiki aims to treat the root of the problem, rather than treating the symptoms. Reiki has been used to treat both physical and mental problems.

How does it work?

Reiki treatment is safe and relaxing. Reiki practitioners will create a relaxing atmosphere and you can lie down on your back or sit on a chair, whatever position, as long as you feel comfortable. The practitioner will gently place their hands in various positions which cover the whole body. In a Reiki session, many people will feel some warm sensations on the skin as the energy flows. Most would feel relaxed at a level they have never experienced before.

Many people begin to study Reiki after they have benefited from the treatment, also if in helping others to heal, they can heal themselves.

Treatment cost

Treatment cost varies and depends on your condition, location etc. Generally, each session lasts an hour and costs from £30 - £50. The number of sessions you need depends on your condition and reaction to the treatment. If you have a chronic problem it takes longer to work. Please check with your practitioner before you start your treatment.

Tips for choosing your Reiki practitioner

We recommend you to choose a Reiki practitioner who is accredited with the relevant professional body and registered with a professional council, society, or association. If you are not sure about that, ask about their qualification or testimonials.
