What is Reiki?

Reiki (pronounced Ray-Key) is a gentle, powerful hands-on technique that uses the Universal Life Force energy around us to heal the body, mind, emotions, and spirit. 

The act of laying hands on the human or animal body to comfort or relieve pain is an old instinct.

When experiencing pain, the first thing most people do is put their hand on it. The living body radiates warmth & energy. This energy is the life force itself and has many names as there are human civilizations.

In the life force energy of Reiki, the person who is attuned as a Reiki healer has had her body's energy channels opened and cleared of obstructions by the Reiki attunements.

She now not only receives an increase in this life energy or Ki for her own healing but becomes connected to the source of all universal Ch'i or Ki and can connect to this energy for healing others.

Benefits of Reiki

After a reiki session, both the healer and receiver are energized and filled with balanced energy. Because of the complexities, and because Reiki energy heals whatever needs healing, what happens in a session cannot be predicted.

What can be promised is that Reiki benefits everyone who experiences it.

Reiki does relieve pain, speeds the healing process, relaxes the receiver, and balances the person's chakras and aura energy. Respiration slows during a Reiki session, and blood pressure lowers; emotional calming occurs. 

It aids in and develops emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being in the receiver.

What to expect in your first session

Your first treatment will include a full history take and consultation, this is to ensure that all potential contributors to your condition can be worked on during the treatment, and to ensure that reiki treatment is right for you.
 
Many people will experience Reiki in different ways. Some may feel a warmth in their body, others might feel a tingling sensation, or perhaps go into a deep meditative state, or even fall asleep for a short while. Whatever your experiences when receiving a Reiki treatment, it can be very relaxing and most beneficial leaving you feeling rejuvenated and energised.

A Reiki session is a real treat for everyone whether in person or online. All sessions include an intuitive oracle card reading & crystal therapy.

In-person

Before the treatment, the room will be cleansed using sage & reiki symbols of any negative energy.

Then during the treatment, you remain dressed and lie comfortably on a massage table with cushions. First Sonia will get in tune with your bodies energy field, she will use crystals to do a full-body scan to see where any energetic blockages my lie.

 

Sonia will then take you through a short intuitive guided meditation whilst she starts to transmit the Reiki energy to you.

 

Even though a Reiki treatment is commonly associated with the laying on of hands, actual touch is not necessarily required & this will be discussed before the treatment begins. The Reiki energy can be transmitted whilst Sonia holds her hands within 1 to 5 inches above your body in your body’s energy field (your aura.)

Gentle music, candles & essential oils will be can be played & prepared if you wish. You can choose to wear an eye mask for your comfort. All of this provides a safe, secure & beautiful place for alignment & healing.

Distance Healing can be given and received anywhere in the world, and will still have the same beneficial effect as when one is receiving hands-on healing with the healer in the same room. Animals can also receive healing, as they do not have the blockages that we humans create and store within, and are very sensitive to the energy.

We often know how certain things work, but there are many things in life that we do not know or understand the reasons why. Everything exists with energy. The universe is pure energy, and we are all energy and energy cannot be destroyed only transformed. The transformation of energy can be powerful and very effective, with distance healing, on a physical, emotional, mental and spiritual level. As with other types of healing distance healing, has been shown to have no boundaries, or limitations, where the effects of healing are concerned.

Distance healing, may be received in the comfort of your own home, find a nice comfortable place for sitting or lying down.

 

If you wish, you can play some gentle background music, light some candles and burn some oils making your environment tranquil and peaceful or I can play music for us both. Make sure there will be minimal noise disturbance, and then sit or lie down with eyes closed and relax.

 

Let the energy that is being sent to you, flow through you, and receive it with openness and willingness.

I accept clients from all over the world.
