reiki

Reiki is an ancient healing technique based on the concept of life force energy. This universal energy flows through all living beings, and when it becomes disrupted or imbalanced, it can affect us physically, emotionally, and mentally. The word “Reiki” combines rei (universal) and ki (life force energy), reflecting its purpose of restoring harmony by gently channelling this energy through the hands. Practitioners channel this gentle energy through their hands, placed on or just above the body, to help restore balance and promote deep relaxation. 

​

In our fast-paced world, enhancing our holistic wellbeing is more important than ever. While conventional medicine remains essential, complementary therapies like Reiki offer gentle, supportive ways to restore balance, reduce stress, and promote healing on emotional, physical, and spiritual levels.​

I trained in Usui Reiki Ryōhō, the original Japanese energy healing system founded by Sensei Mikao Usui and am 12th in direct lineage from Usui himself. This connection reflects the strength and authenticity of the tradition I’ve been taught in, rooted in the original teachings and intention of Reiki.

​

I chose to train with The Reiki School, a provider that is registered with the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC). The CNHC is the UK regulator for complementary healthcare practitioners and is supported by the Department of Health and Social Care. Being trained through a CNHC-registered course ensures that the teaching, professional standards, and lineage meet nationally recognised standards.

What can Reiki help with?

Usui Reiki Ryōhō also incorporates mindfulness, breathwork, and the Five Reiki Precepts, encouraging personal growth as well as healing and can support a wide range of emotional, physical, and energetic concerns, including:

• Stress, anxiety, or emotional overwhelm
   

• Feeling disconnected or out of balance
   

• Fatigue or burnout
   

• Difficulty relaxing or switching off
   

• Low mood or lack of clarity
   

• Support during times of grief, transition, or healing
   

You don’t need to be unwell to benefit, many people simply come for the sense of peace and grounding it brings.

Reiki is not bound by time or space, and healing energy can be shared wherever you are in the world. Distance Reiki sessions offer the same calming, restorative benefits as in-person treatments, ideal if you're unwell, unable to travel, or simply want to receive healing from the comfort of your own home.

​

You’ll be guided to relax in a quiet space while I connect with your energy field remotely. Afterwards, I’ll share any insights or impressions that arose during the session. Clients often report feeling calm, held, and energetically lighter, even across great distances.

Reiki is received fully clothed while lying down or seated, depending on your comfort. I place my hands lightly on or just above the body, gently channelling energy through to support your system.

 

You may feel warmth, tingling, deep relaxation, or simply a sense of peace and stillness. Everyone experiences Reiki differently, and every session is unique to you.

​

You don’t need to talk, explain, or “do” anything in a Reiki session. It’s a quiet, non-judgemental space where your system is invited to settle, recalibrate, and heal. Whether you need grounding, emotional release, or just time to rest, Reiki can offer a deeply nourishing reset.

Animals are naturally receptive to energy healing and often respond beautifully to Reiki. It can help pets with:

​

• Anxiety or stress (e.g. after moving home, vet visits, or rehoming)
   

• Recovery from injury or illness
   

• End-of-life comfort and emotional support
   

• General wellbeing and bonding
   

Sessions are carried out gently, either hands-on (if appropriate) or from a short distance, respecting the animal’s comfort and boundaries at all times. Distance healing is also available for animals who may be shy or sensitive to touch.
