Reiki is a form of energy healing that originated in Japan, where practitioners channel universal life force energy through their hands to promote physical, emotional, and spiritual healing. Energy healing, more broadly, involves balancing the body's energy fields to clear blockages, restore harmony, and support the body’s natural healing processes. Both practices aim to enhance overall well-being, reduce stress, alleviate pain, and foster a deep sense of relaxation and peace.

The frequency of Reiki sessions can vary based on individual needs and goals. For ongoing stress relief and relaxation, receiving Reiki once a week or bi-weekly is often beneficial. If you're addressing chronic conditions or healing from significant issues, more frequent sessions, such as twice a week, may be recommended until you experience noticeable improvement. For maintenance and to sustain benefits, monthly sessions are typically sufficient. During major life transitions or periods of intense stress, increasing the frequency to weekly or as needed can provide additional support. It's best to adjust the frequency based on your personal experiences and consult with your Reiki practitioner for tailored advice.

Reiki can help address a variety of issues, including stress and anxiety, chronic pain, emotional imbalances, sleep problems, fatigue, and digestive disorders. It supports recovery from trauma, enhances spiritual growth, improves relationships by clearing emotional blockages, and promotes overall well-being. While Reiki is a valuable complement to traditional medical treatments, it's important to consult a healthcare provider for serious or persistent health concerns. Learn more.

During your Reiki session, you'll start with a brief discussion to address any questions or concerns. You’ll then lie comfortably on a table, fully clothed, while I prepare the space with sage, selenite, and palo santo to cleanse and elevate the energy. With your consent, I may lightly place my hands on various parts of your body to detect and address areas of stagnant or deficient energy, focusing on balancing and aligning your chakras. You may experience sensations like tingling, vibrations, or emotional releases, each unique to you. After the session, we'll discuss your experience, and you'll be encouraged to drink water and consider a salt bath to aid in detoxification. Regular sessions can lead to improved well-being and a positive shift in your life. Learn more.

After a Reiki session, you may feel deeply relaxed and at ease, with a sense of calm that can last for hours or days. You might experience emotional release, increased energy, or enhanced mental clarity. Physical sensations such as tingling or warmth are common, and some people may feel tired as their body integrates the healing. Drinking plenty of water and allowing time to rest can help support your well-being as you process the experience. Each person's response is unique, and regular sessions can lead to more profound benefits.
