How does Distance Reiki work?

How does a Distance Reiki treatment work?

Distance Reiki can be especially suitable for people managing conditions that means travel can be challenging such as fatigue or medical treatments such as Chemotherapy and IVF.

Often removing the barrier of travel also makes sessions easier to fit in busy schedules. It also means we can be in your home environment which can feel more safe and comfortable. It can also be a low commitment way to start experiencing Reiki.

Put your logical thought to one side

In-person Reiki usually makes more sense to our rationally thinking brains - a Reiki practitioner using hands on healing probably seems at least imaginable to most people.

So to get our heads around Distance Reiki, we need to lay our logical brain down as it can be difficult to give an explanation for how it works.

As Reiki works with energy, it is not limited by time or space which means it can be sent and received remotely.

Who is Distance Reiki suited to?

Just as we would for an in-person treatment, we start with a pre-treatment chat only this happens over a video call.

I invite you to make yourself comfortable by finding a space to lie down and relax. No need to be in front of a screen during the treatment. Just as with an in-person treatment, I work through a series of hand positions to channel the energy to you. I am working to shift any trapped energy or blockages and boosting any depleted areas. Your body will be drawing energy where it is needed the most. I like to work with clients with their intentions for the sessions and also what I observe from the energy in the session.

Just as we would for an in-person treatment, we speak again at the end of the session to reflect on the session.

What to expect

Pre-treatment check in

Treatment

Post treatment

We begin with a brief check-in about what has brought you to your Reiki session and any issues you would like to address.

You remain fully clothed on a comfortable treatment table. I work through a series of hand positions and let the energy flow - your body will draw what is needed.

Everyone experiences Reiki differently so you might experience heat, sensations or a meditative state where you see images or colours - or nothing at all! Reiki will still flow where it is needed. You can find FAQ here.

The session ends with some time to come back into the room and we can both share some observations from the treatment.

Hydration and listening to what your body needs are recommended after a reiki treatment.
