Process of Reiki

What to Expect During Your Reiki Session? Reiki activates the receiver's body's natural ability to heal itself.

The person receiving Reiki lays fully clothed on a massage table. Reiki penetrates through the clothing, linens, and wood of the table. Unlike massage, Reiki does not involve skin manipulation.

While Healing Energy comes thru Reiki Practitioners' /hands, the client is the actual healer. Practitioners work thru a sequence of hand positions on/just above the client's body. The client’s body then draws the amount of energy that is required for healing.

Sounds too simple? While indeed incredibly simple, Reiki is powerful, and people usually let go of any initial skepticism after a Reiki treatment. Most people keep coming back for more of its relaxing and other benefits.

What to Expect After Your Reiki Session?

Reiki is experienced differently by different people, as we all have different conditions. Most recipients enter a deeply relaxed state of peace. Besides this, people have felt cold, pulsating heat, or a tingling sensation during a session. Some muscles may twitch. In some people, chronic or acute pain can diminish or completely vanish. For others, allergies and other infirmities completely disappear.

Many troublesome conditions were not created overnight, and so don't expect a recovery overnight. Instead, arrange with your Reiki Pracitioner to obtain a series of sessions. Healing takes commitment and time.

How Many Reiki Sessions Do You Need?

Just one treatment can make a difference, although we offer clients a treatment plan.

The Canadian Reiki Association recommends :"To begin with, three or four sessions over ten to fourteen days are recommended to remove entrenched blocks in your energy system; then once a week or once every two weeks until the issue has resolved. You will begin to notice some improvement after the first session. Long-standing health issues are usually cleared up in five to six visits. Disease generally begins in the energy field so if we keep our subtle bodies healthy using Reiki, and our physical bodies healthy with good nutrition and exercise, we should be able to remain active and whole."

After-Care -- What To Do After Your Reiki Session?

Immediately after your Reiki session, we suggest you take some time to enjoy the deep state of relaxation and to slowly come back to full awareness. (You might be too relaxed to drive, for example, till say 20 minutes afterwards.)

Expect the body to detoxify. You might have to go to the bathroom more frequently, or your skin might release toxins. To help the detoxification process, as a Reiki recipient, you should drink lots of water immediate after treatment, and during the following few days. You may also want to take more rest.

We suggest our clients to be an observant of themselves, and notice their thoughts, their behavior, their reactions, their feelings, their energy, their pain levels, their issues. Many notice an immediate pain reduction. Energy and alertness increase daily and a feeling of overall well-being may be noticed. Reiki treats holistically, and goes to the deepest levels of a person's being, i.e. to the origin of illnesses. It reinforces a receiver's ability to take responsibility for his own life, and helps to make necessary changes in attitude and lifestyle to promote a happy healthy life.
