Reiki is a Japanese energy healing technique in which practitioners use gentle touch or place their hands just above the client’s body to channel universal life energy. The word “Reiki” combines “rei” (universal) and “ki” (life energy). Reiki is used to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and support the body’s natural ability to heal itself.
Reiki practitioners believe that energy can stagnate in the body due to physical or emotional pain. This stagnant energy can cause illness over time. Reiki helps to clear energy blockages, restoring balance and flow. Scientific studies are ongoing, but many clients report feeling deeply relaxed, lighter, and rejuvenated after sessions.
No, Reiki is not a religion. It does not require any specific belief system and can be practiced or received by people of all faiths or none. Reiki is a spiritual but non-denominational practice.
Reiki is often used to help manage stress, pain, fatigue, insomnia, anxiety, and to support emotional well-being. Many clients seek Reiki for overall balance and relaxation.

During a session, you’ll lie down fully clothed on a comfortable massage table or sit in a chair. The practitioner places their hands lightly on or just above your body, moving through a series of positions. You may feel warmth, tingling, or deep relaxation. Sessions usually last 60 minutes, but options are available for shorter or longer durations.
Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothes. You will remain fully clothed throughout the session.
No special preparation is required. Avoid heavy meals, alcohol, or stimulants immediately before your appointment. Some people experience cold symptoms after their first session and that’s completely normal. When emotional releases happen, the old energy has to exit the body in some form and in most cases, it releases via tears or cold-like symptoms.
Most clients report feeling calm, refreshed, and centered. Some experience emotional release or insight, while others may feel sleepy. Occasionally, old emotions may surface as the body releases tension. This is natural and part of the healing process.
The optimal frequency varies by individual and goals. Some opt for weekly or bi-weekly sessions, while others come as needed. Your practitioner will help you create a plan that suits your needs.
