Reiki Treatment
There are many variations of Reiki, it is a healing process that works at bringing us into balance and reinforces the body's natural ability to heal itself at all levels, physical, mental, emotional or spiritual.
Reiki is not a cure, as a natural form of healing Reiki can support and enhance other forms of treatment.
Some forms of reiki can be practised when the patient is not present.
Reiki is taught by Reiki Masters, who have trained in the tradition passed on in person from Master to student. After being initiated into Reiki students are then able to treat themselves and others.
What to expect
Your reiki treatment will take place in a peaceful and relaxing environment. Although you will need to remove your coat and shoes, it's not necessary to take off any other clothing.
The practitioner will take your medical history and find out more about any symptoms or problems
The practitioner gently places their hands non-intrusively, on or near the body. There is no massage or manipulation and the whole person is treated rather than specific symptoms.
You may feel a flow of energy, mild tingling, warmth, coolness or nothing at all. At times you may spontaneously release emotion as your energy rebalances, crying can be a natural and healthy part of the therapy.
Cautions and care
It is advisable to rest after a reiki treatment and drink lots of water. Treatment is very safe and can by used alongside conventional medical treatments, however you should tell your practitioner if you are having any other complementary or conventional medical treatments.
Regulation and training
At the moment, there is no single body that regulates the reiki profession, however there are a number of professional groups working together as the Reiki Regulatory Working Group to develop common standards of training, practice and ethics and one register of practitioners who all meet a required standard.
