“Reiki” is Japanese for ‘universal life energy, and is also a word used to describe a system of natural healing, This tradition was founded by Mikao Usui in the early 20th century and evolved as a result of his research, experience, and dedication.

 

There are many variations of Reiki, but in essence Reiki treatments can help the body emotionally or spiritually. It is a tradition that is open to any belief system and can be used alongside other conventional or complementary treatment and often helps to provide emotional support during recovery.

​

How is Reiki performed?

Clients usually lie on a massage table or may be seated in a chair if required, for comfort. A 'session' involves the practitioner gently placing their hands in a series of non-intrusive positions on or near the body and is performed through light clothing.

 

What do Reiki treatments feel like?

Clients may or may not feel sensations during a Reiki treatment. Benefits include deep relaxation promoting a calm, peaceful sense of well being on all levels. Some people feel sensations of heat, tingling, or experience seeing colours, whilst others can have an emotional response, indicating that shifts are taking place, allowing harmony to be restored.

Reiki appointments are available by appointment in-person and by distant healing which means that you can make appointments with Andrea from anywhere in the world.
