FAQ's

What is Reiki Healing?
Healing can be described as “Use of Energy and International thought by one or more people to systematically help another person, animal, or situation, by hand or close hand contact”. Reiki is non-denominational. Also, Reiki is completely confidential. It is a method of healing that was discovered in Japan in the early 1900’s by Dr Mikao Usui.
Literally translated as REI – meaning universal spirit and KI – meaning life force it can be used to treat almost anything on any level and is an effective method of maintaining a balanced well being.

What is the Purpose of Reiki?
The purpose is to Heal not only physical problems, but also emotions, mind, and spirit. Whatever is wrong may be corrected to help you lead a normal, well-balanced, healthy and happy life.

How Long Should Healing Continue?
We suggest that you have 7 sessions. During this time, Reiki may work on one level or another. But if nothing seems improved on either the physical, emotional, mental or spiritual levels after 7 sessions, we must assess how to continue. Although miracles can and do happen, please do not give up if there is no quick and visible result. Many Healings occur gradually.It is very rare there is no benefit.

Should I Tell The Doctor?
Yes. If improvement or a cure results from Reiki, it is your doctor who must decide whether to reduce any drugs you may be on. If the doctor asks about Reiki, tell him that its purpose is to stimulate the body’s natural Healing ability. It does not conflict with medicine: the Healer will not contradict a doctors advice.

Is There a Fee for Reiki?
Reiki treatments are £20 for a half hour or £30 for an hour. Reiki can also be administered remotely for which no charge is made. I simply ask that if you have been helped by distant healing that you make a donation so that others may benefit.

How does it work?
The practitioner directs a flow of energy through themselves to the client in order to remove any blockages that may be preventing the person from becoming healthy. It is a way of working with the body’s natural ability to heal itself to:

Accelerate the natural healing process
Provide relaxation, confidence, peace and joy
Remove tension
Release stress
Create balance, harmony, clarity and focus in daily work
Improve concentration
Aid meditation and positive thinking
Provide physical, emotional and mental well being
Cleanse toxins from the body
Enhance other treatments or medication
Encourage personal development
Lead to a better quality of life

What is Reiki Lineage?
Reik lineage refers to the line of Reiki Masters that leads to the student. For traditional Reiki the line begins with Dr Usui, and continues with one of his Reiki Masters, and then to one of theirs and so it continues. For a healing system to be called Reiki and be recognized as such, the lineage must trace back to Mikao Usui.
