In the original Japanese Usui Reiki, it is considered that negative energy causes illness. Blockages or distortions at the energetic level are therefore reflected in every aspect of our lives, creating fears, unwanted emotional reactions, a false perception of reality, harmful relational experiences and physical pathologies. Often, these energetic alterations also lead to the blocking of creative energy.
A practitioner begins a Reiki session looking for negative energy and sends Reiki to eliminate it. Subsequently, the practitioner will use Reiki to enhance spirituality so you will not resonate with negative energy again. Furthermore, you will continue improving your vibration to achieve a peaceful and abundant life.
The method of receiving an in-person Reiki treatment from a practitioner is simple. The recipient remains clothed and comfortably lies on a couch or sits on a chair. The practitioner gently places their hands non-intrusively, on or near the body using their intuition and training as a guide. At times with your consent I may use physical contact, and at other times I may work with the energy fields away from your body. Everything you share is confidential.
The techniques used in Reiki sessions balance, clear, and charge your energy system. This work will take place mostly in the unconscious parts of the mind while you remain in a state of calm and peace. The energies continue to work deeply into your system, recalibrating, reconfiguring, and transforming it over the days following a session.
As a healer and therapist, I do not medically diagnose or prescribe treatment. I do not offer psychic readings, channel messages or do anything else apart from being a channel for healing energy. I offer to serve as a facilitator in your self-initiated process of healing and transformation.
In your first session, we may explore areas that influence your state of wellbeing, such as your life and health history, stressors, belief systems and attitudes, your family and childhood history, relationships, diet, exercise, dreams and longings.
The healing treatment is typically done on a massage table, the lights are lowered and quiet. You remain fully clothed and shoes, glasses and any bulky jewelry are removed. Sheets, blankets and a bolster under the knees are provided for the utmost in comfort. If you are comfortable with closing your eyes during the session, you are strongly encouraged so that a deeper relaxation may occur. Throughout the session, I typically remain silent, allowing you to deeply relax into the treatment.
During a healing session you may feel waves of subtle energy gently moving through your body, you may experience heat or coolness from my hands and perhaps even see comforting colours or visions. While these are normal responses, it is also completely common to feel nothing during the session, but still be left with a sense of deep relaxation, overall wellbeing and inner peace.
What is important to remember is that healing works on all levels, so even though there might not be a physical sensation, the energy could be working on a deep emotional or spiritual level.
My work is intended to be in harmony with any other healing work. Regular sessions promote the consistent and unlocked flow of energy throughout the body, bringing the mind, body, and emotions into attunement with the soul, and restoring balance within the system.
