REIKI IS ENERGY MEDICINE

Conventional medicine takes a direct approach to address health challenges, whereas Reiki does not have to target symptoms directly for it to be effective. We can assist our body’s healing with medicines and therapies to support it in ultimately healing itself. But in order for self-healing mechanisms to function well, the body needs be in balance and able to achieve a state of rest, and the Reiki Energy Medicine does just that. 

Whereas modern medicine focuses on the physical body alone, Reiki Practice focuses on the entire person. We have an emotional body, mental body, Spiritual body AND a physical body. All four are real, all four are connected, and when one is out of balance they are all out of balance.

The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is the part of the nervous system that regulates the unconscious functions of the body like heart rate, digestion and breathing. The two branches of the ANS are the Sympathetic Nervous System (SNS), which controls the flight or fight or survival/stress mode, and the Parasympathetic Nervous System (PNS), which controls the rest and digest or healing/balance mode. With the high demands of modern life, many of us unknowingly go through much of the day in a coping, SNS-dominate mode. As Reiki energy moves out of the practitioner’s hands into client’s or patient’s body, it allows the body to shift from a state of survival/coping to the much needed PNS-dominate rest/healing state. It is here that the body is able to restore itself most effectively. 

During a Reiki therapy session the clients are treated in a dark, quiet room on a massage table. They are fully clothed and lying on their back. The Reiki Practitioner's hands are positioned slightly above the body, stationary or not. There is little to no physical touch or skin contact, and sessions last anywhere from 60-90 minutes. 

A Reiki treatment gives one a sense of calm, comfort, and peace. Some clients feel warmth and heat coming off the practioner‘s hands. Others feel soft waves of subtle pulsations flowing through their bodies. Some feel nothing but complete and total relaxation.

Although a majority of clients report feeling better after the first session, it is generally recommended to complete more than one. For those with serious health concerns, completing several treatments close together is the most beneficial, as they build on each other and stabilize desired results. The bottom line is the more treatments you complete, the better you will feel overall.

Pets are a big part of any family. Whether our family members have two legs, four legs, feathers, scales or are growing in soil, they all will love and benefit from Reiki. 

Through a series of attunements you can become a Reiki Practioner and learn to channel the wonderful Universal Light Force Energy. Once the ceremonial process is complete, you will be able to move and direct the flow of healing energy. As a practioner, you will have the knowledge and wisdom to help yourself, your family, your community, and the world.
