Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about Reiki/Energy Healing treatments. If you would like to set-up a session or have more questions prior to scheduling, please feel free to email us. We will be happy to answer them for you.
What can I expect to feel during treatment?
The most common responses to energy healing include feeling warmth over areas of the body, relaxation, and decreased tension. Some people report seeing visualizations such as colors or pictures, or having memories appear. Some people simply relax and fall asleep. Try to allow whatever arises to pass without attaching too much meaning to it. One's experiences may become deeper the more they continue with energy healing.
What can I expect to feel after treatment?
Being that each individual is different, their response will be different. Some clients state feeling calm and overall more relaxed; this can happen immediately, within a few days, weeks or after months of healing. Energy healing can sometimes elicit emotional responses, fatigue, and body aches as it can also be a cleansing and detoxification process for many. Be sure to drink plenty of water after your session.
What should I wear to a session?
Do I need to remove clothing?
You should wear clean, loose and comfortable clothing during treatment. Clothing is kept on during the entirety of the session except for shoes, glasses and any metal. Jewelry does not need to be removed.
Where should I expect hand placements to be? Can I talk to my practitioner if I am uncomfortable with any placements?
Hands are placed gently on or over clothing in areas ranging from the head to the feet (avoiding all sensitive body parts). Let the practitioner know prior to the session which you prefer, light touch or no touch. Also, let the practitioner know if you have any injuries or places that are sensitive to touch.
