Treatments and Aftercare
Before the treatment begins, there is a short health consultation and we will briefly discuss any particular issues or needs you have at the time relating to the treatment. As Reiki acts for your highest good, it will not interfere with any medication or other complementary therapies.
You remain fully clothed during the treatment, apart from your shoes. You may be covered with a blanket if you wish. There will be gentle music playing throughout the treatment.
I work over the body on the energy field (or aura) and so my hands will not make contact with you until the end of the treatment, when you'll feel my hand on your shoulder as a sign that the treatment is at an end. I work intuitively, allowing my hands to drift wherever needed at the time.
You may experience Reiki as warmth, tingling or even as a gentle breeze-like sensation. However you experience the energy, you should feel deeply relaxed and may even drift into sleep.
Afterwards, as with any other complementary therapy, you should take some time for yourself so you experience the full benefits of the treatment.
- Drink plenty of water, both to aid the body's detox-process and to ground yourself.
- Avoid tea, coffee, tobacco and alcohol for 24 hours after the treatment.
- Relax - your body will be adjusting after receiving the treatment so make the most of some 'you' time.
Please don't hesitate to contact me with any post-treatment queries.
