Reiki
What is it?
Reiki (pronounced "Ray-Key") translated means "spiritually guided life force energy". Energy flows through all living things yet can become blocked due to emotional or physical traumas, stress, or injury. Our energy responds to both thoughts and feelings, and therefore is affected by belief systems, both conscious and unconscious. Reiki treatments can help clear these blocks and assist in rebalancing your energetic being.
Rei means “Universal” and refers to the spiritual dimension, to the soul.
Ki means vital life force energy that flows through all that is alive.

What to Expect from a Reiki Treatment Session
Clients receiving treatment will be lying down in a calm and quiet atmosphere. Clients stay clothed, with a sheet/blanket for added comfort if preferred. The practitioner may gently place their hands on or above the client's head, and then on other locations aligned with the Chakras, major organs, or other specific areas of energy blocks.
Clients will generally experience deep relaxation. Some clients will feel warmth, tingling, pulsation or vibration in their body, while some clients do not feel anything. Each Reiki experience is individual and unique and no two treatments are the same.
For some, leading up to and after a session a Client may feel tired, thirsty, hot/cold and may experience a heightened sensitivity to emotions.
Phew! That was a ton of info.
Feeling overwhelmed?
Just remember, your job is to just be open to receive the energy.
