Reiki FAQ

  • Wear something that you feel comfortable in.  I will be placing my hands on your fully clothed body including your feet, so some people prefer to leave socks on and wear long trousers rather than shorts.

  • Yes of course.  Although my hands rest in the same position for several minutes, I can hover my hands above your feet instead.  The same goes for any other hand placements, the Reiki will still work.

  • I will go through these with you prior to our first session.  Reiki works with your chakras.  There are key places I put my hands, like cradling your head, placing my hands on your tummy area and placing my hands on your feet.  We can talk about these and make sure you are happy before I start.

  • The wonderful thing about Reiki is that it can be incredibly relaxing and Reiki will flow to where it is required.  It’s a perfect way to escape the hustle and bustle of life and spend an hour or even just 30 minutes of undisturbed “you” time, whilst benefiting from some healing.  What’s special is that Reiki helps heal the mind, body and soul.  You may not have a physical ailment but perhaps you are struggling with work and need some clarity, or are juggling too many things and want to ease your mind, Reiki healing may be just what you need.

  • Yes.  Reiki works with the mind, body and soul.  The health of your mind is as important as the health of your body.  I can concentrate more on your head area.

  • Reiki cannot “cure”.  The definition of cure is to return to a normal state of health.  Reiki cannot cure but what it can do is promote healing. The definition of heal is to make or become well again.

  • Yes.  I have full insurance and I am a member of the IPHM (International Practitioners of Holistic Medicine) and te UK Reiki Federation.

  • I carry out my Reiki healing in my home healing room in Whimple, East Devon. As it’s my home, sessions are by appointment only.

  • I offer Reiki in the evenings on Monday - Wednesday, all day Thursday and Friday, and Saturday mornings. Please see times on the Book a Session page. I may be able to offer Reiki outside of these times so it’s always worth asking me.
