What Is Usui Reiki?

Usui Reiki, pronounced “ray key,” is an energy healing technique designed to activate the natural flow of energy within us, promoting wellness and balance. Originating in Japan over a century ago and channelled by Dr. Mikao Usui, Reiki is a gentle, non-invasive practice that harmonizes with any medical conditions and is often integrated into healthcare settings, such as cancer services.

Usui Reiki can:

Unblock your energies

Help you have a better night's sleep

Reduce stress and anxiety

Promote healthy, positive thinking

 Provide you with a boost of energy

How Does Reiki Work?

When our body and mind are unwell, our internal energy flow can become slow, heavy, or blocked. A Reiki practitioner, attuned to this energy, acts as a conduit to help move and unblock this energy, restoring your natural balance. Whether you're experiencing grief, stress, anxiety, or simply seeking a higher level of energy, Reiki can help shift your energy where it's most needed.

What To Expect During A Usui Reiki Session

During your Usui Reiki treatment, you'll be fully clothed and lying on a comfortable treatment couch, or seated in a chair if you prefer.

-

Our sessions focus on your comfort, so wear loose-fitting clothes and you'll be covered with a blanket to keep warm. I will work from head to feet, often concentrating on the chakra system, the seven main energy centres in your body.
