It is most useful to have a Reiki healing session when there is something specific to work on, such as a physical ailment, injury or mental and emotional issues that need to be worked through. To begin your session, the client will lie on the therapy couch fully clothed. Generally, I start a treatment at the shoulder, which is the connection point, and move slowly around the body connecting to the main seven chakras with non-intrusive hand positioning.

I work on the body and the energy field, balancing the chakras. Reiki can work in two ways, by either placing hands on the client’s body including the energy field traditionally called the aura, or at any distance, which requires no physical contact. Crystals are also used during the session to intensify natural energy. Throughout the session you do not need to concentrate and can simply relax. Many clients actually fall asleep!
