What is Reiki?
Reiki Treatment
Reiki which translates to "Universal Life Force Energy" is a healing energy system that was discovered in Japan in the early 1900's. It is gentle and non-invasive and can heal on many levels. Reiki always heals on some level whether that is physically, emotionally or spiritually, even if it does not “cure” the physical body. It is especially wonderful for animals as it is such a gentle and loving energy. Animals respond intuitively to Reiki energy which assists them in healing emotional, behavioral, and physical illnesses and injuries. At times the changes we see may only be subtle but it generally heals on a much deeper level. Other times evidence of healing can be seen quite dramatically.
When working with an animal, Reiki allows me to connect with them very deeply. Often intuitive impressions are received of specific areas that need healing or other areas that need to be communicated to the owner. This often assists the animal and the owner bring about a deeper level of healing. My clients have found that this deep connection is especially helpful with their missing animal companions. Animals are not the only ones that benefit from Reiki; people and plants can also benefit.
I offer Reiki treatments to people as well. I view each client as unique and work to help bring them the highest level of healing possible. The beauty of Reiki is that it will bring the client the level of healing that is needed at that time, whether it be physical, mental, emotional or spiritual.

What if your body could heal itself?
What if we did not have to only leave it up to conventional medicine? What if there were alternatives that could work in conjunction with conventional medical treatments? Would we try it? I am not saying there is not a need for conventional medical treatment. In many cases it is required to cure us physically. But the more I have given Reiki treatments the more I have witnessed my clients benefiting from accelerated healing, increased overall health, and improved feelings of well being and happiness. Studies have shown that Reiki has the ability to decrease blood pressure, increase white blood cell count and even increase hemoglobin in patients.
Many clients have found Reiki treatments to reduce their level of stress. There are more articles and discussions today that indicate that stress is at the root of many illnesses. I have experienced Reiki as not only an alternative method of healing for those who are sick but also as preventative 'medicine'. The core of Reiki and its healing effects is that it can provide deep relaxation which allows the body to come back into balance and begin to heal. So maybe the question is not 'What if our body could heal itself', I think it is more of a question 'Why are we not allowing our body to heal itself?'

Meet Sweet Chloe...
Chloe, receiving Reiki from a distance
The picture to the left shows a horse, Chloe, that I was blessed to work with at her owner's home. She was very fearful and came from an abusive situation. In the beginning, she was grazing eating grass and as Reiki was offered to her she looked up. The connection we made through the Reiki told me that she was receiving the Reiki and that she wanted more.
Eventually she came up and walked past me. After giving her friend Andy Reiki and offering her a cookie or two, she allowed me to give her hands-on Reiki. Immediately her owner noticed she settled into a relaxed position her ears went gently back and eyes closed. The connection with Chloe was amazing. I could feel a release of emotion from her and a sense of gratitude for the gift of Reiki. Her release and connection were so strong it was as if she said "Finally someone that understands". I believe she felt this loving energy deeply and in just this short session opened her heart to allow it to heal.

Who Can Receive Reiki?
The wonderful part is anyone is open to receiving Reiki. Reiki can be offered to people, animals and plants. Once you experience Reiki, you will find many different areas of your life that Reiki can be used.
Reiki is generally a hands-on practice. The practitioner will place their hands in a series of positions on your body. However, if you are uncomfortable with touch the hands can be placed above the areas. Reiki will still be received the same as if the client was receiving hands-on. Reiki can also be offered from a distance.
A client may receive Reiki on a massage Reiki table or in a chair. The client is fully clothed.
I have seen Reiki touch the lives of many people. I have had clients who had a physical pain relieved by Reiki. Healing has been accelerated after receiving Reiki treatments. I have also had clients come in just to experience Reiki and have had a deep emotional release.

Reiki Can Change Your Life...
Animals feel Reiki almost instantly.
In my experience I have found Reiki to touch every aspect of my life. I have seen it in my client's lives as well. A practitioner never knows exactly how Reiki will assist a client but in my experience and the experience of many others it is always for their highest good and what they need at that time. Reiki is a gentle practice that is non-invasive and has no contra-indications since there is nothing to be taken internally.
There are many ways to describe how Reiki impacts a client. Some feel a sense of relaxation, some drift peacefully to sleep, while others say they feel nothing. As with life we all experience Reiki in different ways. There is no right or wrong to experience Reiki. In my experience and the experience of many teachers before me Reiki will always go to what the client needs the most. Even if a person does not feel anything it does not mean that they are not receiving Reiki. Reiki has been reported to accelerate healing and has been found to lower blood pressure through the deep relaxation it provides. Reiki allows the body to rest and relax so it can heal itself. Healing does not always mean what we hope it does but Reiki will provide a level of healing for each client. Reiki works to peel away the layers of 'dis-ease' to bring a person to feeling whole again. The longer you receive Reiki or practice Reiki the more you will see these results.
