Experience gentle energy healing

Relax, Restore, and Rebalance with Reiki

Reiki is an energy healing technique that promotes relaxation, mental and emotional clarity, and your body’s natural healing processes. Using gentle touch, Reiki helps to increase energy flow throughout the chakras (energy fields), decrease aches and pains, and promote a sense of balance. After a Reiki session, you can expect to feel lighter and a sense of peace.

What to Expect During a Reiki Visit at East West Wellness & Rehab

To start the Reiki session, our Reiki Master will review what to expect, as well as your intention for today’s visit. From there we’ll personalize the session with your intention in mind, using our sound bowl to start us off nice and relaxed. During your session you may feel different physical sensations or see colors and images, although it varies between patients and sessions. Following the session, we’ll debrief on how you felt as well as messages the Reiki Master may have received. We finish up the session discussing recommendations to follow post-Reiki.

FAQ

Have Questions About Reiki?

  • What is Reiki and how does it work?

    Reiki is a gentle, energy healing technique that originated in Japan. It works by channeling universal life energy into the body to support physical, emotional, and spiritual healing. It can help balance chakras (energy centers), helping to restore balance and promote the body’s natural ability to heal.

  • Is Reiki a religion or spiritual belief system?

    No, Reiki is not a religion or tied to any specific belief system. It can be a spiritual practice that allows you to connect with the universal energy. People of all backgrounds and faiths (or none) can receive Reiki, as you do not need to believe in anything specific to benefit from it. However, you do need to be open to receiving Reiki for the best outcomes.

  • What can I expect during a Reiki session?

    During a session, you’ll be laying down on a comfortable table while the practitioner will gently place their hands on or above different areas of your body in relation to the chakras (energy centers). A sound bowl will be used to start and end the session to get you relaxed and comfortable. During the session, most people may feel relaxation, warmth, tingling, or an emotional release. Some may even see colors or fall asleep. Symptoms vary, as many patients experience Reiki differently. However, even if you don’t feel much during the session, Reiki is still working on an energetic level, and will continue to do so the following weeks. 

    We recommend wearing comfortable clothing, staying hydrated, and having a light meal prior to your visit.

  • What are the benefits of Reiki?

    The benefits of Reiki include relaxation, stress relief, and emotional healing. Research has shown it can help reduce anxiety, improve sleep, ease pain, and enhance overall quality of life. It can also help release energy blockages, heighten intuition, and help you align with Higher Self.

  • Is Reiki safe? Are there any side effects?

    Yes, Reiki is safe for people of all ages and health conditions. It’s non-invasive, gentle, and doesn’t interfere with medical treatments. Occasionally, some people may feel an emotional release and/or fatigue following a Reiki session. It is important to note that Reiki is not a replacement for medical treatment. It is a complementary treatment that can be used alongside standard medical care.

  • 8. How many Reiki sessions will I need?

    The number of Reiki sessions recommended depends on your goals. Some patients feel results after one session, while others benefit from ongoing support. For chronic stress or long-standing issues, a series of sessions may be recommended. We will discuss goals at the beginning of your session and tailor a plan based on your needs.
