Reiki

'I felt very much at ease it was a wee oasis in a busy day. I found the treatment very positive, relaxing and enlightening.'  - KF, Scottish Executive

Tense? Anxious? Feeling overwhelmed? Fragile? Reiki is a non-invasive, soothing treatment to calm a tense mind and emotions.

Reiki (pronounced 'ray-key') is a japanese healing system, based on the balancing of life energy, or ki. This ki is the same as the ki in Aikido, or the chi in Tai Chi.

This energy is present in every living thing, and its easy flow through our bodies ensures our systems are healthy and in balance.  If there is a blockage in the flow of that energy, due to injury, stress, or a variety of other factors, the body is out of balance, and prone to illness, pain and disturbance. Reiki works at releasing these blockages, to restore a person's physical, emotional and mental wellbeing.

Rei means UNIVERSAL.

  Ki means LIFE ENERGY.

Reiki = universal life energy.

This therapy's recognition has grown vastly in the west over recent years, and its popularity is continuing to grow at speed. It differs from the other therapies above in that it is not necessarily hands on, and no manipulation of body tissues is involved. Many people find it, nevertheless, to be a very powerful experience of healing.

Everyone who receives reiki has a different experience, but for the majority of people, common elements are a feeling of heat from the hands of the practitioner, and a deep, calming relaxation. The effects are physical, emotional and mental, sometimes with deep emotional release experienced during or after treatment, and pain and discomfort often relieved to surprising degrees.
