Reiki therapy is a healing technique that originated in Japan in the early 20th century. It is based on the idea that there is a universal life force energy that flows through all living things and that this energy can be harnessed and used to heal the body and mind. Reiki is a non-invasive, gentle therapy that is often used in conjunction with other medical treatments to promote healing and reduce stress. Reiki therapy can be completed in person or remotely, which we offer at Earth’s Edge Wellness.
In-Person Reiki Sessions
During a Reiki session, the client lies down fully clothed while the therapist places their hands on or near the body in various positions. The therapist then channels the universal life force energy through their hands to the client, promoting relaxation and healing. Many people report feeling a warm, tingling sensation during a Reiki session, and some even fall asleep.
Remote Reiki Sessions
During a remote session, the practitioner uses their intention to send healing energy to the recipient. The recipient can be anywhere in the world and does not need to be physically present with the practitioner. The practitioner will typically ask the recipient to find a quiet, comfortable place to lie down or sit during the session. The recipient may feel sensations such as warmth, tingling, or relaxation during the session. Remote sessions can be just as effective as in-person sessions and are a great option for those who cannot travel to see a practitioner in person.
Benefits of Reiki Therapy
Reiki therapy is often used to help manage chronic pain, reduce anxiety and depression, and promote overall well-being. It is also used to help people cope with the side effects of cancer treatments and other medical procedures. While Reiki is not a substitute for other medical treatments, many people find it to be a helpful complement to their existing healthcare.
At Earth’s Edge Wellness, we utilize the healing power of Reiki therapy to help individuals with a variety of disorders. It can be beneficial for those with anxiety, stress and inner wounds, especially patients with eating disorders. Reiki is different from cerebral therapy as the energy is directed to inner wounds, and the patient does not need to participate, only accept the healing energy. This can be a relief for those who experience distress during typical cerebral counseling or therapy.
One of the unique aspects of Reiki therapy is that it can be practiced by anyone, regardless of their religious or spiritual beliefs. The practice is based on the idea that the universal life force energy is available to all, and anyone can learn to channel this energy for healing purposes.
Overall, Reiki therapy is a gentle and non-invasive healing technique that can be used to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and manage mental health disorders.
