The Healing Power of Reiki: What to Expect in a Session

December 31, 20241 min read

Reiki is a powerful form of energy healing that promotes balance, relaxation, and well-being. But if you’re new to Reiki, you might wonder: What exactly happens in a session? Whether you choose an in-person or distance session, Reiki offers a sacred opportunity to release energetic blockages and restore harmony.

What Is Reiki?
Reiki, derived from the Japanese words "rei" (universal) and "ki" (life force energy), is the practice of channeling universal energy to support physical, emotional, and spiritual healing. During a session, a Reiki practitioner acts as a conduit, directing this energy to areas of imbalance or tension.

What to Expect in an In-Person Session

  1. Calm Atmosphere: You’ll lie fully clothed on a massage table in a serene environment.

  2. Gentle Touch or No Touch: The practitioner places their hands lightly on or just above your body.

  3. Energy Flow: You may feel warmth, tingling, or a sense of deep relaxation as energy flows through you.

What to Expect in a Distance Reiki Session
Distance Reiki allows healing energy to flow to you, no matter where you are. These sessions are perfect for busy schedules or if you’re outside Calgary. You’ll relax in your chosen space while the practitioner connects with your energy remotely.

Benefits of Reiki

  • Reduces stress and anxiety

  • Promotes relaxation and emotional healing

  • Supports physical well-being and pain relief


    Reiki is a gentle yet transformative practice, offering healing on all levels. Ready to experience the power of Reiki? Book your session today contact me at [email protected]
