What is Reiki?

Reiki is the gentle and powerful Japanese energy healing technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also has the benefits of promoting self healing.
For thousands of years, many ancient cultures including Japanese, Chinese and Indian believed that life force energy flowed through our bodies affecting our physical and emotional states.

Modern physics describes energy fields existing within and around our physical bodies. This energy flows around and through us nourishing our cells, organs and glands. When the energy flow is out of balance, one may be susceptible to disease manifesting itself as stress, depression, infection, or other physical, emotional or mental conditions.

How can Reiki help me?

The flow of Reiki energy, directed by the practitioner, utilises hands on healing to support the normal flow and balance of the human energy field, enabling self healing. Reiki not only helps to strengthen and restore this natural ability toReiki is utilised to support general health and well-being

Who can benefit from Reiki?

As Reiki is a non-invasive therapy it can be used without fear of any side effects or overdose. It may be used with confidence alongside conventional medicine or natural remedies as it acts in a complementary way. It is suitable for clients of all ages including new-born, pregnant mothers, surgical patients, the frail and elderly regardless of their state of health. Hospitals in America commonly use Reiki to relax patients and optimise faster healing during their treatment.

Treatment sessions

A session typically lasts 1 hour and is usually carried out with the client lying on the comfortable therapy couch. There is no need to remove clothing. I will place my hands gently in a series of positions on or over the body. The most common response to a Reiki session is one of deep relaxation, some clients may even fall asleep. You may also experience warm or cool sensations throughout the treatment all of which are entirely normal.

Catherine currently provides sessions of Reflexology and Reiki at Goring Hall Hospital (Monday afternoons) and practices in East Preston at all others times. These complementary therapies can be used in conjunction with most medical treatments to help alleviate drug side effects, post operative pain, improve healing and boost immunity.
