Reiki

Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.

The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means "God's Wisdom or the Higher Power" and Ki which is "life force energy". So Reiki is actually "spiritually guided life force energy."

A treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing. Many have reported miraculous results.

Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use. It has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and malady and always creates a beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery.

An amazingly simple technique to learn, the ability to use Reiki is not taught in the usual sense, but is transferred to the student during a Reiki class. This ability is passed on during an "attunement" given by a Reiki master and allows the student to tap into an unlimited supply of "life force energy" to improve one's health and enhance the quality of life.

I use a hands on approach during Reiki sessions, however, if a client prefers, I can also perform Reiki with my hands off hovering just slightly above the body. Clients have clothes on during Reiki only sessions. If you are adding Reiki to your acupuncture treatments, Reiki will be performed while the patient is covered in a blanket.

Reiki sessions may include Chakra Balancing, Crystal Healing and Vibrational Healing. Essential oils are intuitively chosen and custom blended for your session to support your healing. Crystals and tuning forks that are used for your session are intuitively chosen to best support your healing.

Reiki is not a regulated practice in the province of Alberta.
