New Clients
Usui Reiki practitioners around the world agree on the minimum recommendation for beginners- four full-length sessions. This is because complex and long-term physical or emotional problems require multiple sessions in order to optimally balance your "Ki," or energy. However, you should notice a difference after just the first session. I welcome you to contact me today with your questions regarding Reiki.
What to expect during your Reiki treatment
The Room:
Sundara Yoga Therapy provides a wonderful private treatment room for Reiki clients, complete with dimmed lighting that can be adjusted to your liking, relaxing music playing softly in the background, and an invitingly earthy atmosphere- all designed to help you feel your most comfortable.
During a typical Reiki healing session:
We will begin with a brief consultation to discuss your needs, including any problem areas where you would like to focus. Some of this discussion may take place on the phone the day you book your appointment. If you have never received a Reiki treatment before, I will take the time to show you the hand positions before we begin so you know exactly what to expect.
Next, we will start with you lying down on your back on the massage table. You may wear whatever clothing is comfortable for you; there is no need to remove clothing or jewelry. There are twelve hand placements in a full body treatment that cover the head, neck, and torso. A treatment will typically begin at the head and work down the body. At the halfway point, you will turn over to lie face-down so the treatment can continue, starting again at the head and working down the backside of the body. If you have a specific area of need, I will more time on the site causing you pain or problems.
What will I feel or experience during a Reiki treatment? You will feel my hands lightly resting on your body in each of the twelve hand placements, and the Reiki will begin to flow. Each body responds to Reiki in a different way, but some commonly reported experiences include:
