Frequently Asked Questions
How Does Reiki Work?
This is taken directly from the International Center for Reiki Training's website. https://www.reiki.org/faqs/how-does-reiki-work
We are alive because life force is flowing through us. Life force flows within the physical body though pathways called chakras, meridians and nadis. It also flows around us in a field of energy called the aura. Life force nourishes the organs and cells of the body, supporting them in their vital functions. When this flow of life force is disrupted, it causes diminished function in one or more of the organs and tissues of the physical body. The life force is responsive to thoughts and feelings. It becomes disrupted when we accept, either consciously or unconsciously, negative thoughts or feelings about ourselves. These negative thoughts and feelings attach themselves to the energy field and cause a disruption in the flow of life force. This diminishes the vital function of the organs and cells of the physical body. Reiki heals by flowing through the affected parts of the energy field and charging them with positive energy. It raises the vibratory level of the energy field in and around the physical body where the negative thoughts and feelings are attached. This causes the negative energy to break apart and fall away. In so doing, Reiki clears, straightens and heals the energy pathways, thus allowing the life force to flow in a healthy and natural way.

Do I have to believe in this for it to work?
Energy isn't limited by time or distance, so whether I'm working with someone in person, over the phone, or through a computer, the effects are just as powerful.
How does this work over the phone or online?
No, you don’t have to believe in it. Your body’s natural wisdom will still process and benefit from the session in a way that’s best for you. However, it’s always your choice to allow or block the experience.
What Is Reiki?
Reiki is a gentle Japanese energy healing technique designed to reduce stress, support emotional and physical healing, and promote overall well-being. By dissolving energetic blockages that may arise from stress, trauma, or physical injury, Reiki helps restore balance to the mind, body, and spirit.
While each person's experience is unique, many clients report feeling emotional harmony, increased energy, peace of mind, and enhanced clarity after a session.
