Frequently asked questions.
What is Reiki and how does it work?
Reiki is an ancient Japanese energy healing technique that uses gentle hand placements to channel universal life force energy. It works by clearing energetic blockages, balancing your chakras, and supporting your body’s natural healing ability. You’ll remain fully clothed and can simply relax, Reiki does the rest.
What can I expect in a Reiki session?
We will begin with a short conversation about your intentions. Then, you’ll lay comfortably on a massage table while I lightly place my hands (or hover) over specific energy points. Most people feel deep relaxation. Some have also experienced warmth, tingling, or emotional release. Think of it as an energetic reset for your mind, body, and soul.
How many Reiki sessions do I need?
It depends on your goals. Some clients feel lighter and calmer after one session, while others schedule regular sessions for deeper emotional healing or ongoing stress management. We can discuss what works best for you.
Can Reiki help with grief, anxiety, or physical pain?
Yes! Reiki supports emotional well-being and can help reduce stress, anxiety, and feelings of heaviness. Many clients also report relief from physical tension and improved sleep. While Reiki is not a medical treatment, it’s a powerful complement to traditional care.
What are chakras and why are they important?
Chakras are energy centers in your body that influence your physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. When they’re balanced, energy flows freely, and you feel more aligned. When blocked, you may feel stuck, drained, or unbalanced. Reiki can help restore this flow.
How does sound healing work?
Sound healing uses vibrations from instruments like crystal singing bowls, tuning forks, and ocean drums to relax your nervous system and harmonize your energy. The frequencies interact with your body at a cellular level, promoting deep calm and releasing energetic tension.
What is the difference between Reiki and sound healing?
Reiki channels life force energy through the practitioner’s hands, while sound healing uses vibrational frequencies. Both clear blockages and restore balance, and when combined, the effects are even more profound. Think of it as energy and sound teaming up for your highest good.
Do I need to believe in Reiki or sound healing for it to work?
Nope. Energy doesn’t require belief to flow. Just come with an open mind and willingness to receive. Most clients feel the effects, whether physical relaxation, emotional release, or mental clarity, even on their first visit.
Can Reiki be done virtually?
Yes! Energy knows no boundaries, so distance Reiki is just as powerful. You’ll receive the same care and intention as an in-person session, from the comfort of your home.
What should I do after a session?
Hydrate, rest if possible, and notice how you feel. Some people experience an emotional release or a surge of energy. Journaling or gentle self-care can help integrate the shifts.
