A Typical Reiki Session

As a health professional and seasoned energy therapist I have now assisted hundreds, maybe thousands of people into wellness. I partner with the client to find the area in their life that needs balance; that issue could be emotional, physical or spiritual. I have taken a myriad of energy modalities over the past 18 years (Therapeutic Touch, Cranial sacral, Polarity, Quantum Touch, Reflexology, Esoteric Healing, and all levels of Reiki). Intuition and 6th sense helps me with approach and hand placements most effective for the receiver. As the session unfolds I can find blocks and identify feelings which diminish the clients’ energy field. Physical touch is combined with over the body hand placements. The client is responsible to make healthy life style changes and improve their way of thinking to retain the newly balanced field. Sessions are always unique, powerful, and unfold in mysterious ways.
After the client arrives at the appointment time, we begin with 15 minutes or so of conversation. Healing often begins when the client releases stress and worry over the dis-ease or condition.
Next, the receiver makes him/her self comfortable on the massage table. I have a sacred space, a beautiful deep blue room with large, expansive windows overlooking fields of 80-foot pines and wildflowers. The giver and receiver become centered and quiet.
I give the client an opportunity (if they wish) to call in a healer to assist with the treatment.
Then I proceed to do the following for the body on the table:
Criss-cross my hands and place them under the clients’ neck
Place hands over face, rest palms on forehead, fingers down cheeks
Place hands alongside of face
Place hands over throat
Make a T with my hands on the heart center
Place my hands on upper abdomen
Place hands on lower abdomen
Place hands over base center
Place hand on clients’ hip and opposite hand on foot-do the same for both sides of the body
Turn client over on the table and place hands on throat, heart, upper and lower abdomen
Go back and place hands wherever intuition guides me to.
Ground by holding the clients feet. This brings them back to earth and into their day.

Finally, I silently ask God to bless the client. The treatment is completed.
Before departure, I ask the receiver about any sensations or insights they experienced during session. I also share what I gathered from my education and inner vision.
The client generally feels warming, cooling, tingling, feels lighter, sees colors, experiences emotions, or receives a message from guides or higher self regarding life changes that are needed.
Together we decide how many sessions to plan- four or five is average.
Every client is important and each one is my teacher. I close with a sense of gratitude.
