What
is Reiki?
Simply
Reiki (pronounced ray-key) meaning universal energy and is a very safe
complimentary therapy. Reiki improves energy levels and releases toxins;
it is a wonderful tool to enhance any other treatment and to get the
best out of life on all levels. It is a very efficient therapy and
anyone can do it. It also compliments other therapies such as
aromatherapy, reflexology, counselling, and hypnotherapy. It is a
completely safe, natural, and holistic way of treating disease.
What is a
Reiki treatment?
A
Reiki treatment is done with the client fully clothed. It is a gentle
hands on technique which is very peaceful and deeply relaxing. Reiki can
be experienced on a physical, mental and emotional level. It takes the
person to a deep state of relaxation that the healing energies harmonise
and healing takes place.
Is
Reiki suitable for everyone?
Yes
from the very young to the elderly and is completely safe for pregnant
woman.
How
do I choose a Reiki Practitioner?
They
must always work within the bounds of their own ability and never
prescribe, nor diagnose, or judge a client’s condition unless licensed
to do so.
If
a practitioner does any of the above my advice - quickly find a new
practitioner.
What
conditions can Reiki help to relieve?
It
is a natural way to treat many conditions including:
Stress,
Migraine, Acne, Arthritis, Asthma, Back pain, Sciatica, ME, Eczema, PMT,
Depression, Anxiety, Mental and Emotional problems, Menopausal problems,
Sinusitis, Fear, Tension, Insomnia, Broken Bones, Circulation, , Speed
up recovery time from Operations, and many more the list is endless.
Is Reiki
suitable for every condition?
I
personally do not know of any contra indications for Reiki, if it
doesn’t immediately help it will not harm.
Do you have
to believe?
No
you just have to relax and the energy will go in anyway, but like all
things if you try to block it the result will not be as satisfying.
Can Reiki do
any harm?
I
personally do not know of any contra indications for Reiki, however,
remember everything cannot be healed in this life time.
Should
practitioners ask questions before the treatment?
YES
and if they don’t –RUN- and find someone who will.
For
instance if someone had a pacemaker for their heart and the practitioner
didn’t know and didn’t
ask the question, they could start a reaction by causing the heart to
flutter etc – not a good thing eh!!!
However
if they had this knowledge before starting a treatment by adjusting the
hand positions away from the area the incident would not occur and the
client would have a pleasant and relaxing treatment.
Can anyone
learn Reiki?
Yes
of course.
Can you self
heal with Reiki?
Yes
and you really can feel the difference.
Remember
when using the Reiki energy it is coming from the Universe and I think
you would agree it’s a big place so the energies are limitless,
so you are not relying on the life force energy of any one person
to make you feel better.
What makes
people choose Reiki?
People
do not choose Reiki, rather Reiki chooses you. When you are ready you
will find that things start to fall into place and you find the path to take
you find your teacher.
Why is Reiki
called “intelligent “ energy?
Reiki
is an intelligent energy because it knows which area of the body most
need healing and will automatically flow to specific areas where
suffering and imbalance are prevalent.
How does
Reiki energy flow?
Reiki
flows through our palms at different rates of speed, depending on
various factors such as the extent of illness, degree of blockages and
their readiness to accept change.
What is a
Reiki attunement?
A
Reiki attunement is a type of ritual or ceremony performed
by a Reiki Master. The ceremony involves energetic placement of Reiki
symbols through a specific set of actions into the students crown
and palms.
What
is a healing crisis?
As with any form of
natural healing, there is a cleansing.
This may happen during or immediately after a Reiki treatment, or
within a few days. During a
treatment, the client’s body draws in energy.
It washes through, clearing the body out on a physical, mental,
or emotional level. This
cleansing may be obvious or very subtle and is sometimes called a
“Clearing” or a “Healing Crisis”.
