Soma Registered Massage Therapy
What is Reiki?
Reiki is energy medicine. Developed in Japan, in the early 19th century, by Dr. Mikau Usui for stress reduction, relaxation, enlightenment and healing.
It is administered either in person by the laying on of hands, or from a distance virtually online, and is based on the idea that an unseen life force energy flows through all of us, and is what causes us to be alive.
If one’s life force energy is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy, healthy and calm when dealing with stressful situations.
Reiki safely facilitates the healing of energetic blockages that manifest in our physical, mental and emotional bodies. By healing these energetic blockages Reiki helps increase the vibration of our personal energetics.
Increasing your personal energetics allows for you to naturally gravitate towards things and people that are good for you, well at the same time helping you move away from things and people that are draining.
“Reiki is love, love is wholeness, wholeness is well-being, well-being is freedom” -Dr. Mikau Usui

How many reiki sessions will I require?
Each person is different and require different levels of care. It all depends on how well your energetics are functioning, your stress levels and your ideal level of balance.
One session can be very powerful.
When working with chronic conditions three to nine sessions are recommended to see significant results.
If your lifestyle is high paced and overly stimulated it is recommended to book in once a month to recharge, rebalance and re-centre your energy.
How can Reiki support my Physical Body?
Reiki can tune into the physical body energetically. Often physical dysfunctions and stress patterns found in the body have an emotional component to them. Reiki works wonders on clearing and healing the emotional body; healing the emotional body ripples down into the physical body subsequently supporting the release of stress patterns.
