Reiki

What is Reiki?

The word Reiki is Japanese and means Universal life-force energy. Rei means the Higher Intelligence which guides the creation and functions of the Universe. Ki means the life-force energy which flows through every living thing, including humans, plants and animals. When these two words are put together to form Reiki the meaning can be simplified as Universal lifeforce energy.

In the 1920s, a Japanese Priest, Dr Miako Usui rediscovered a way of channeling this healing energy. He called this Usui Reiki Ryoho meaning Usui Spiritual Energy Healing Method; we now simply call this Reiki.

Reiki practitioners use hands-on or hands-near healing through which universal energy is transferred through the palms of the practitioner to the patient in order to encourage emotional or physical healing.

Helen is a 12th Generation Reiki Master and Teacher. As well as Reiki healing, she also offers Reiki training either in a group or on a 1:1 basis.

What happens during Reiki healing?

After an inital chat to find out if you have any specific reasons for coming for Reiki healing, you will be invited to lie down on the therapy bed. You will remain fully clothed, only removing your shoes and coat.

Helen will then connect to the Reiki energy and will then channel this through to you, sending the energy where it is needed most. This can be done with the hands on your body or just above. During the treatment you will feel deeply relaxed; you may see colours or images as though you are dreaming.

The Cost:

The session, including inital consultation and final chat, lasts for an hour. It costs £35.

After your Reiki healing:

You should try to relax and take it easy after your session to allow the energy to settle. If possible, eat small meals and drink plenty of water.
