TREATMENTS
Having a treatment
A Reiki treatment is a gentle and profound
experience. The client will lie fully dressed on the treatment
table and the therapist will lay his or her hands on or over the
body and head in a series of different positions.
Each position will correspond to a different
chakra (energy gateway). The practitioner is likely to touch
positions on the head, the torso, legs and feet. As the session
proceeds it is common for the client to feel different
sensations these could include: heat, coolness, tingling,
numbness and pressure. These sensations occur as the Reiki
energy restores balance within the body, mind and spirit.
Stephen & Christopher also read the client’s aura
and balance the chakra and this approach involves very deep
channeling of the Reiki energy.
Reiki takes a holistic approach and each client
is different – this means that your treatment may be longer or
shorter than another persons. Also different treatments may last
for different lengths. As a guideline allow at least two hours
for your first session.
To experience the full benefits of Reiki, the
therapist may recommend a course of treatment to run over a
period of time. This will not be open ended and will usually
involve 4-6 treatments. However, the exact number will depend
upon each client’s needs.
After the first course of treatment is finished
many people return for seasonal or twice yearly ‘top up
treatments’.
Reiki is completely safe but as with all
complementary treatments to ensure the greatest benefits the
following guidelines should be followed:
• If possible wear comfortable, loose clothing to the therapy
session
• Drink a glass of water before the treatment
Following Reiki you may find that you’re very
relaxed and sleepy. Some people may experience a slight headache
and/or increased thirst. It is also common to feel slightly more
emotional than normal.
Following a treatment it is best for the rest of
the day to be as quiet as possible. Many people experience a
desire to go to sleep after treatment. It is also common have a
reduced desire for fatty food and alcohol following a Reiki
session.
