Reiki is a Japanese form of hands-on therapy that promotes relaxation and healing and can help reduce feelings of pain, loneliness or anxiety.
We all have energy flowing through our bodies, which sometimes becomes stuck or damaged. These blockages can be caused by physical illness, negative thinking or difficult experiences. Reiki aims to remove these blockages and to restore a healthy flow of energy.
Most people feel very relaxed after a session, although sessions can bring up suppressed feelings or thoughts. For a few hours after a session, and sometimes a few days, you may feel more emotional. Eventually, your feelings will stabilise. This process can feel very cathartic. Some people report heightened senses following sessions – perhaps feeling able to see more clearly or better able to notice sounds and smells.
What does it involve?
Reiki does not require the removal of clothing. You will either lie down or sit upright on a chair with your eyes closed. I will place my hands on various locations on your body to perform the Reiki healing.
Please note: I usually work in person, but am open to requests for remote work – clearly here there is no physical contact, and while sessions will be synchronous (we will be available at the same time) you can choose if you’d like them to take place via video or audio, or offline with a ‘debrief’ sent via email at the end.
The session will be conducted in silence, with the exception of the short debrief at the end. This is to discuss feelings and thoughts, and your experience of Reiki, and anything that arose for me during your sessions e.g. a message or images. This can be especially important for ‘first timers’ to enable you to make sense of your experience. After a session, it is important to drink plenty of water and to try to have some quiet time. You should avoid alcohol or drugs immediately after a session, as they may have a stronger effect than usual.
How much does it cost?
Prior to our first session, I will ask you to complete an assessment form and agree to a contract. This allows us to spend more time in our first session on Reiki, and less on admin. You can, however, choose to do this as part of our first session instead. Thereafter, timings include any initial discussions (how you’ve been if there is anything specific concerning you) and a debrief.
Concessions may be available where a series of sessions are booked in advance. Otherwise, my costs are :
- 800 SEK for a 30-minute session
- 1,300 SEK for a 50-minute session
- 2,000 SEK for a 90-minute session
