During the session, following the completion of a brief health questionnaire, the patient lies on a massage table, fully clothed. The patient and practitioner set the healing intention for the session. 

The Reiki practitioner gently places her hands palms down on or just above the patient’s body in specific energy locations and uses a series of 12 to 15 different hand positions. There is no pressure, massage, or manipulation. 

The different hand positions correspond to the seven energy centers located in the body known as ‘chakras’ (a Sanskrit word meaning wheel or vortex).

The patient may experience the energy received as heat, cold, tingling, or pulsing where the practitioner has placed her hands. Sometimes, the sensations are felt moving through the body, or appear as images in the mind.

Most people feel very relaxed and peaceful.

After the Reiki, the practitioner will share guidance on general self-care practices for after your healing.

In the two-hour sessions, the practitioner will also share any intuitive guidance which came through to her during the healing process.

A Reiki treatment may do the following:

• bring about a peaceful, deep state of relaxation

• dissolve energy blockages and tension

• detoxify the body

• support the well-being of a person receiving traditional medical treatments that are debilitating

• stimulate the body’s immune system and natural healing mechanisms

• help to relieve pain

• stimulate tissue and bone healing after injury or surgery

• increase the vibrational frequency on physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels

– In line with current Government guidelines, and in order to keep us all safe whilst COVID-19 cases continue to be present within our communities, both patient and practitioner must wear a face mask whilst inside the Cornish Therapy centre, this includes during the Reiki treatment.
