Reiki

When you arrive, we’ll have a chat to see what brought you for Reiki today. And if it’s your first visit, there will be a short form to fill in. ✏️

Cornelia will explain what Reiki is, and invite you to lie on your back on the massage table, fully clothed, and covered with a blanket. 🛏

You’ll be offered an eye pillow, if you wish. A tissue would be placed under the eye pillow for hygiene. 👀

432 Hz music will play softly in the background; this frequency is especially for relaxation and releasing stress. 🎼

Most of the treatment will be hands off. Cornelia will only touch you three times: on your shoulders, at the beginning, and then at the end. She will also cradle your head near the beginning of the session. 🙌

The treatment itself is very relaxing, and it’s not unusual for clients to fall asleep! 😴

Cornelia starts the treatment at your head – we’re often in our heads so much, it’s good to release that stress – and will then work her way down your body. You might feel sensations, or you might not: it doesn’t indicate the level of help that Reiki is offering you. Sometimes Reiki is working very deeply within us. Common sensations include feeling hot or cold, tingling or buzzing, or even a vibration or wave sensation. Some people have a spiritual experience, see colours, or recall childhood memories they haven’t thought about in a long time. 🥰

Whatever you experience during your session, know that the Reiki will be working for your highest good. All I ask is that you relax and accept the Reiki energy. 💞

At the end of the session, Cornelia will gently bring you back to consciousness. You’ll be offered a glass of water, and we will have a short discussion on your experience of the treatment. 💬

You may be given some affirmations to take home with you. 🥰

Payment can be made with cash, or a Visa/Mastercard debit or credit card (but not Eftpos, sorry). 💰

You are on your own journey, so it will be your choice as to how often you come for Reiki. 🙂

You'll find an overview of Usui Reiki on my blog.

Reiki is safe to use with any other treatments, and can enhance the efficacy of all other types of therapy.

Reiki is safe for pregnant women.

However, Reiki should be avoided if you wear a pacemaker, as the flow of Reiki energy could interfere with it.

Congratulations on prioritising your wellbeing! 🥰

Here's how to get the most out of your Reiki session.

Drink plenty of water after your Reiki session, as your body is likely to be detoxing physically and mentally/emotionally. 💦

Have a restful day if you can, doing gentle activities you enjoy.

Consider having a bath with one cup of Epsom salt to make the most of any detoxing. 🛀

Nourish yourself with healthy food, and avoid caffeine and alcohol. 🥦

Most people feel relaxed and floaty after a Reiki session. In some instances, you may feel detox symptoms (e.g. headache, runny nose, diarrhoea, etc.) This is rare, but depending on your healing, it’s possible. However you feel, know that Reiki is working for your highest good. Just be gentle on yourself, and look after yourself. 💖

Let your emotions flow, and experience them without judgement. 💞

Embrace the changes, as you may feel different after Reiki. ✨

Book in for another Reiki session when the time is right for you. 🕐
