A
REIKI TREATMENT
A Reiki Treatment is a hands-on process that allows healing,
balancing energy to be transferred through the practitioner to
another person, an animal, a plant, or the practitioner's own
body. The hands of the practitioner are placed in specific
patterns on the body, the head, the upper body (from neck to
pelvic area) and the back (from the shoulders to the tailbone)
while the client lies fully clothed on a bodywork table or
seated comfortably in some cases. No substances are applied to
the body. Although the focus is on the major organs, the energy
will reach and benefit every cell in the body and to where it is
most needed. Reiki can be given to all ages.
In addition to the formal positions, Reiki can be applied to any
part of the body that has been injured. Reiki works through
bandages and casts and can even be transmitted from a distance.
Reiki can relieve pain and acute symptoms quite rapidly while
chronic problems may require more extensive treatment. A full
Reiki treatment usually takes an hour, however, the length
depends upon the amount of energy needed to balance and
revitalize the ailing part of the body. Reiki is very successful
in emergency situations. Currently Reiki is used in hospitals
(1) before surgery to relax the patient and reduce pain and (2)
after surgery to speed up the healing process as well as to
alleviate pain (3) in nursing homes to help patients adjust to
their new setting and come to grips with their loss of
independence and many other issues associated with later life
stages.
