Reiki healing is becoming more and more mainstream as a healing modality, with people often reporting reiki sessions to be restorative, calming and balancing. The benefits of reiki can include improved sleep, reduced stress levels and an improved overall sense of well-being. Modern lifestyles can be extremely busy and stressful, and there is increased demand for wellness and holistic health treatments, as people look for natural healing methods to restore a sense of calm and balance into their lives.
Before a Reiki Session
Before a reiki session, a good reiki practitioner will take time to discuss your needs with you, and talk about why you are choosing to have the reiki treatment. The reiki session itself should be very relaxing, and your reiki practitioner will usually ask you to lie on a treatment bed, fully clothed, and with a blanket over you for warmth and comfort. Generally, reiki practitioners start with you lying on your back, and some will ask you to turn onto your side during your reiki session, so they can treat the front and back of your body.
During Reiki Sessions: What to expect
An experienced reiki practitioner will always ensure you are energetically protected before they start the reiki healing. Some reiki practitioners lay their hands on your body as they work, and some keep their hands raised a few inches away. Either method is effective, and it’s best to find a reiki practitioner that works in a way to suit you. Some reiki practitioners will integrate other natural healing methods during your reiki treatment, such as using crystals, sound and symbols.
It is likely that during your reiki session, you will feel very relaxed, and some people fall asleep. The reiki healing is still effective if you do sleep during your session. Most people are aware of their reiki practitioner working around them during their healing.
After Reiki Sessions
After a reiki healing, you might feel tired, and sometimes cold-like symptoms can develop a few days later, as your body adjusts to the energy alignment. Some people feel energised, some calmer and more focussed. Everyone is different. It is important to hydrate and drink plenty of water, and take time to relax if possible. An Epsom salt bath will cleanse your energies further. Most people report improved overall wellness, and if attending reiki sessions regularly, reduced long term stress levels and a maintained general sense of calm.
