Reiki FAQ
Reiki is a gentle Japanese energy healing practice developed by Mikao Usui in the early 1900s. The word Reiki translates roughly to “universal life energy” and is based on the idea that this energy flows through all living things.
Reiki is a non-invasive, deeply relaxing treatment that aims to support your body’s natural ability to restore balance and wellbeing. Many people seek Reiki to help manage stress, encourage relaxation, improve sleep, or simply create space to slow down and reconnect with themselves.
What is Reiki?
As a teenager, struggling with my mental health and having tried traditional counselling, I was referred to a reiki therapist and found the shift of my energy completely compelling. It slowed me down and held me present in a way I’d never experienced before. Those sessions were lifelines for me.
In 2024, when pregnant with my little boy, I carried out my Reiki 1 training with that same Reiki practitioner, Anneli of Woodstock Holistics and learned how to self-soothe. It carried me through my pregnancy, a traumatic birth and a tricky postpartum.
In 2026, I decided to continue my training with Brighitta of Awakening Light and completed my Reiki 2 certification to share this beautiful practice with others.
What’s your history with Reiki?
Your Reiki session will take place in a calm, comfortable environment where you can fully relax. You’ll remain fully clothed and lie comfortably on a treatment couch while gentle Reiki energy is offered through light touch or hands held just above the body.
There is nothing you need to do during the treatment other than rest. Some people experience warmth, tingling, deep relaxation, emotional release, or a sense of peace, while others simply enjoy the opportunity to slow down and unwind.
Every experience is unique, but my intention is always the same: to provide a safe, nurturing space where you can rest, restore, and leave feeling more grounded, balanced, and connected to yourself.
What should I expect in a Reiki session?
Yes! I can offer FaceTime, Zoom, WhatsApp Video call or non-face to face, distance Reiki sessions. Please contact me to discuss.
