Reiki
Reiki is a Japanese Energy Medicine (Vibrational Medicine) technique developed by Mikao Usui in the early 1900’s. The name is derived from two Japanese words that mean universal (rei) and vital life force energy (ki). Reiki is an alternative medicine technique used all around the world as a stand alone therapy and to complement traditions forms of healthcare. Reiki is a safe and effective, natural holistic healing technique for the mind body and spirit.
How It Works
Universal energy (rei) flows through the palms of the practitioner’s hands into the client. This increases the client’s vibration and vital life force energy (ki). The practitioner is simply the conduit through which universal healing energy is provided directly to the client to support the body’s natural mechanisms of healing, proper energy balance and flow.
Health Benefits of Reiki
Almost any health condition is positively affected through Reiki. Clients report experiencing feelings of deep relaxation, peace, harmony, a sense of safety and well-being.
Dr. Spore was convinced of the benefits of Reiki when a female patient in Phoenix, who had received an epidural during the birth of her son, came into the office with severe pain. She had spent over 20 years dealing with the after-effects of something that had gone awry from the epidural. One Reiki session with Dr. Spore opened the energy pathways and the problem was solved.
Typical Reiki Session
During the session, the client is typically lying comfortably on a massage table fully clothed. (However, the client could be seated as well). The practitioner will gently place their hands directly on and sometimes above the body at various energy locations. The practitioner adjusts the amount of time spent at each location based on the amount of energy flowing through their hands. When the area is complete and no longer accepting energy, the practitioner moves to the next area.
Things to Expect
Everyone has their own unique experience during a Reiki Session. The cells of the body our emotions and life events. If a memory comes to mind during your session, it means it’s ready to be released and healed. Mentally say, “Thank you for the experience. I now release you with love and appreciation.” Then allow it to flow away.
As for what you may feel…some clients don’t feel anything other than being very relaxed. Some as so relaxed they fall asleep. Others can feel heat in their body or from the energy coming through the practitioner’s hands. Some experience tingling sensations. Sometimes you may experience a short duration of discomfort as their body absorbs the healing energy and begins the healing process. The discomfort dissolves as the energy flow is restored.
There are also clients that cannot express what they felt because their mind had them traveling through the stars. Or they were experiencing an incredible light show of beautiful colors.
Enjoy your unique experience and know that it was exactly what your body needed.
