What happens during a Reiki session?
During a Reiki session, you usually lie on a massage table or sit in a chair, fully clothed. The Reiki practitioner uses light touch or non- touch and gently places his or her hands on or hovering above your body in specific energy locations during the session. The length of time that the practitioner leaves his or her hands in each position is determined by the flow of energy through his or her hands to you at each location. There is no pressure, massage or manipulation.
Benefit of a Distance Healing Treatment
Sending Reiki Flow in a distant administering format is possible because energy is not confined and can transcend time and space so it is easily transmitted anywhere. Although, at first, this concept may be a little hard to grasp, there have been many occasions when the recipient felt as if I was right next to them doing the session in person. Others feel sensations such as warmth or coolness, see colors, feel light or heavy, or simply fall asleep – whatever you experience during the treatment is perfect.
Distant healing offers the exact same benefits of an in person treatment. Yet, it means you have access to the benefits of a healing session whether you:
- are in a different country or don’t live nearby
- are close but without transport,
- are housebound through illness etc,
- are working long and unsocial hours,
- looking for support while you are under going surgery / treatment,
- are looking for support around something that has unexpectedly happened
- you feel that you need healing and cannot wait for my next free appointment
It can be requested for any of the same reasons for which you might come to me for an ‘in-person’ treatment. It can be requested for adults, children and babies. It is also reported to have been of significant help in coping with highly stressful situations such as surgery, exams, court cases etc, as well as reducing the side-effects of invasive treatments and accelerating recovery from serious illness or surgery.
