Reiki Treatments in Kidderminster
Reiki is a non-invasive holistic therapy. The practice of Reiki is an original method of healing, developed by Mikao Usui in Japan early in the 20th century, which is activated by intention. It works on every level, not just the physical. The Japanese word Reiki means ‘Universal Energy’. Eastern medicine has always recognised and worked with this energy, which flows through all living things and is vital to well-being. Known as ‘ki’ in Japan, ‘chi’ in China and ‘prana’ in India. Acupuncture, T’ai chi and Yoga are also based on the free-flow of this energy in a person. Reiki is known to relax and reduce stress, relieve pain and discomfort, foster natural self-healing, and balance energies in the body.
eiki’s gentle energy is easily adapted to most medical conditions and may be used safely by people of all ages, including the very young, pregnant women, surgical patients, the frail and the elderly, in any situation. Being complementary, Reiki works effectively alongside orthodox healthcare and natural remedies, expanding treatment options. It is also a great tonic, so if you are in good health, reiki can help you stay that way. Reiki can enhance everyday living, and regular sessions can help to promote development of a healthier, more resourceful state of being.
Sessions are carried out with the recipient either lying down or sitting. There is no need to remove any clothing as Reiki energy passes easily through all materials, including plaster casts. The practitioner places their hands gently on or over the body. The recipient automatically draws in only as much Reiki as is needed, using it in whatever way is most appropriate at the time. Reiki may be experienced as a flow of energy, mild tingling, warmth, coolness, other sensations, or nothing at all. Reiki is deeply relaxing and has a profoundly calming effect. It is a good idea to rest for a while afterwards and drink plenty of water over the next few days. Be responsive to the needs of your body, eg resting if tired, and allow the energy to continue its work after the session ends. The beneficial effects may be felt for several weeks.
