Reiki Sessions

A Reiki session takes approximately 45 minutes, however, the practitioner should allow for an extra 30 to 45 minutes for discussion before treatment and advice after the treatment. The client may also have questions for the practitioner, so allowance must be made for this period of time as well as record keeping.

A client who is having a Reiki treatment for the first time, should be advised that follow-up sessions should be kept in order to see a marked improvement on the energy levels. This could be organised to be spread over a period of a month to a month and a half. Cognizance must also be taken of the client's financial commitments as this could prove to be an unplanned expense to him, so approach the subject with diplomacy and due respect.

Effects of Reiki Treatments

Effects of Reiki Treatments

When you have had a Reiki treatment, you may experience one or more of the following:

- A past illness reappearing;

- A headache, flu-like symptoms, a need to use the toilet more often

or feeling tired and sleepy;

- A worsening of the present condition.

Reiki boosts one's own healing system and it often works extra hard in order to resolve the problem, and this is why the symptoms may seem worse.

If a past illness reoccurs, it means that it had not been "cured" and may have been suppressed by medication or by the sufferer himself.

Reiki gets to the root of the problem and heals from the root, releasing the symptoms and then proceeding with the healing.

These are all symptoms of detoxification and the body responds by clearing out toxins as best it can. Feeling tired means the body is working in overdrive in order to regenerate itself. Energy levels increase after this process.

Reiki Practice

The Reiki Practice
Reiki is neither a cult nor a secret society. Reiki practitioners are a body of like-minded people who try to live by the Reiki principles, which are not rules as such, but rather suggestions for making life a more fulfilling and joyful experience.

It is to one's benefit to live the Reiki principles and to use Reiki to enhance every area of your life.

Once you have been initiated, you accept full responsibility for how you use Reiki, the ability remains with you to use whenever you wish to, but it is your decision. Reiki works best when used with pure intent and for the highest good of everyone concerned.

The power of thought is very strong and can have amazing results, however, the use of the Reiki sacred symbols in treatment as they were intended, requires that the practitioner using them has been attuned to their vibrations, in order for them to be effective.
