FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
DOES REIKI REQUIRE ANY BELIEF SYSTEM?
Reiki is not a religion, nor does it require any religious belief. Belief in Reiki is not required for the healing energy to work.
WHY RECEIVE A REIKI TREATMENT?
Reiki benefits the whole person. The body, emotions, the mind and spirit may receive healing during a session. Reiki is very relaxing.
WHAT CAN REIKI DO FOR ME?
Common responses to the flow of Reiki energy are relaxation and increased energy. The flow of Universal Life Force Energy through your body helps promote clarity, health, happiness, ease of mind, acceptance of self, a sense of your own Divine nature and inner peace.
WHAT HAPPENS DURING A REIKI SESSION?
A Reiki session only requires the intent to be open to receive the healing energy. During a Reiki session a person remains fully clothed (with the exception of shoes and metal jewelry), while laying on a body work table for comfort. In a very simple, non-invasive way, I lay my hands on or above the body in a series of positions from the head to the feet to allow the energy to flow throughout.
WHAT ABOUT ETHICS?
- PERMISSION is always obtained before giving Reiki
- Reiki is only used for the HIGHEST GOOD of all
- Reiki sessions are a SAFE SPACE – it can be no other way
- BODY PRIVACY is always respected. Touching breasts or genitals is an
invasion of body safety
WHO CAN BENEFIT FROM RECEIVING REIKI?
Reiki can be used on persons of all ages from birth through the elderly. Reiki is beneficial to people throughout every stage of their lives. It is possible for pets, animals and birds to receive the benefits of Reiki healing.
WHAT IS A HEALING CRISIS?
A healing crisis does not always occur after a treatment, it is important to understand what is happening to you if a healing crisis does occur. After a session, a client may begin to experience growth in all areas of life. Physical symptoms can appear such as a runny nose, a headache, a cold, diarrhea or fatigue, etc. This is a topic that is covered in great detail (along with handouts) during the Reiki Session(s).
WHAT IS A REIKI PRACTITIONER?
A Reiki practitioner acts as a channel for the universal healing energy. The practitioner neither predicts nor influences the benefits which are received. The practitioner does not decide what to heal or how healing may take place. The Reiki energy knows exactly what to do and where to go to promote healing. It provides exactly what an individual needs at the appropriate time.
WHY TAKE A REIKI CLASS?
Reiki classes with attunements allow the receiver to become a channel for the universal healing energy in order to do self-treatment or for the treatment of others. Reiki is a system that is easy to learn and an attunement lasts a lifetime.
