What is Reiki?
Reiki is a Japanese energy healing technique where a practitioner uses gentle hand placements or hovers them over the body to channel universal life energy, "ki," to promote relaxation and well-being through hands on or distance treatments working on the energy centres of the body.
It's a complementary therapy often used to name a few ease stress, anxiety reduce pain, and support emotional, physical and spiritual healing.
It is non invasive and doesn't require you to take your clothes off or do anything drastic just be present, breathe be open and receptive.
My Practice
My practices are a bit different as an empath and developing channel. Through my practice I will be going through the major 7 chakras and in the 1hr plus sessions through relevant minor chakras as well. Spending time focusing on each chakra to help restore a healthy flow of energy. Whilst doing this I usually pick up on sensations, emotions intuitions and even visions it varies person to person. At the end I will discuss with you your experiences and question around anything that I sense or channel from your body spirit or aura as I am careful not to plant ideas and want to help guide you to your own answers and empowerment. We then unpack it so as it can help you in your life with any things that may need actioning to bring more harmony and alignment to your life.
Although there has been miraculous outcomes from Reiki and holistic practises as a disclaimer your health is your responsibility and we will always advise you to see a GP or other relevant physical and mental health professionals.

The Chakras
About the Chakras
Chakra (cakra in Sanskrit) means “wheel” and refers to energy points in your body. They are thought to be spinning disks of energy that should stay “open” and aligned, as they correspond to bundles of nerves, major organs, glands and areas of our energetic body that affect our emotional and physical well-being.
Some say there are 114 different chakras, but there are seven main chakras that run along your spine. These are the chakras that most of us are referring to when we talk about them.
