What to expect from a Reiki treatment

Reiki is an intuitive, energetic treatment where universal energy is channeled through the practitioner's hands.

At the beginning of the treatment you will likely chat with the practitioner about the process and any intentions you may have for the session.

You will lie down on the treatment table and have the option to use a blanket. During the session, your comfort is key.

Depending on your practitioner, before they begin with the treatment they may use a pendulum to read your chakras and check where your energy may be out of balance. This helps them know where you may need a little more focus and attention.

The practitioner will move their hands around your body and the treatment may include light touch or no direct touch at all. It's possible that you may experience sensations in the body such as tingling or changes in temperature, or you may not feel anything at all. Sometimes you may even have memories or images come up, this is a natural response as energetic blocks get cleared during the treatment. Just allow whatever arises to come up without focusing on it too much.

Reiki is an incredibly relaxing experience and is a wonderful treatment to help manage stress and help you feel more calm and at ease.
