What is Reiki?

Reiki is a Japanese stress reduction and relaxation technique that promotes healing. Reiki is based on the idea that an unseen life force energy flows through us and is what gives us life. If this life force energy is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stressed, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy. Reiki has been linked to a range of physical and emotional health benefits, including better sleep, improved mood, and pain relief. If you are looking for a natural way to improve your health and well-being, reiki could be right for you.

How is Reiki Incorporated into my Treatment?

Reiki practitioners use their hands to channel reiki energy into the person receiving the treatment. This helps to restore balance and harmony in the body, mind, and spirit. Our certified Reiki masters and LMTs at both Plantation and Wilton Manors use various techniques to clear the energy channels in the body. They do this during your massage session, or alternatively, you can ask for a Reiki-only session.

What are some common Reiki techniques?

Some of the most common Reiki techniques used by our certified Reiki masters and LMTs include:

  • Centering and grounding:

    • This technique usually involves a 15- to 20-minute meditation to clear the mind.

  • Clearing of space

    • This involves energy channeling to “clear” past traumas.

  • Beaming or scanning

    • Involves focusing the energy on a singular part of the body.

  • Smoothing and raking

    • Also known as aura cleansing, involves breathwork and smudging with sage.

What to expect in a reiki session at Plantation & Wilton Manors, FL?

A Reiki session typically lasts 20-30 minutes and it can be an add-on service to your massage or a full-service option, During your session, the practitioner will discuss what you hope to gain from the session and any sensitive areas in your body history. The practitioner will then place their hands on or near specific points on your head, neck, shoulders, stomach, and feet. You may feel a warm sensation or tingle in some areas, but most people simply feel relaxed. Some people fall asleep during a session! Because reiki enables you to tap into your own healing energy, it is completely safe for all ages and conditions. There are no side effects.
