What to expect from your session and before the session?
Reiki focuses on harmonising the energy within the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual body. Trained practitioners utilise Universal Life Force Energy, known as Reiki, channelling it through their hands to the clients or recipients. This energy is directed towards the person's body or their energy body centres (7 main Chakras).
I/the practitioner will pass this energy onto you/the client or recipient by placing my hands gently on or hovering over various parts of the body, such as the arms, shoulders, hips, or knees as well as the 7 main Chakras, as trained. This is also called 'hand-on healing', which is meant to balance energy and promote the sense of wellness from within.
Reiki is commonly viewed as a complementary practice that can enhance other therapies. Its aim is to enhance relaxation, reduce stress, and facilitate healing through energy balancing and alignment.
Crystal healing, Chakra cleansing and balancing with Crystals, and Aura amplification with Crystals are complementary treatments to Reiki practice, regarded as synergistic therapies. These modalities utilise various techniques involving Crystals or semi-precious stones, which are believed to possess unique properties and vibrational frequencies that can positively influence the body's energy or auric field. I/the practitioner will place specific or intuitively selected Crystals on or around the recipient/client's body in a grid-like formation(s), or as necessary or attuned to. The aim is to assist in clearing blockages, amplify or ground energy, promote balance in the individual's energy flow, and enhance the energetic or auric field of the person's body centres known as chakras, contributing to a more positive and harmonious state of being for the body, mind, and soul, supporting the natural healing process. This holistic approach may also foster increased self-awareness and emotional balance.
Before the session, an initial discussion occurs where I/the practitioner will discuss/may ask about your health history and any concerns or goals for the session. Recipients or clients remain fully clothed and usually lie on a massage table. The environment in the “Enriched Harmony Healing” studio is specially created to evoke a calming, nature-inspired atmosphere conducive to relaxation.
What you can expect from your Reiki sessions or other modality sessions is a form of relaxation, which can sometimes be deep. However, this may vary among individuals/clients. Generally, it is a unique experience, and each person will have a slightly different outcome based on their personal energies, personal histories, emotions, unfulfilled desires and life experiences prior to attending the session.
Our Reiki, Crystal healing and other therapy sessions promotes relaxation, calmness, and an enhancement of overall wellbeing. During the session, you/the individual may experience physical sensations such as warmth/heat, cold/chill, tingling, gentle pulsing, or pins and needles, as well as mental or emotional reactions, including visualising colours or memories, or even falling asleep or a cry, or you might not feel anything. If you experience emotional release such as a cry, please know that it is perfectly acceptable. This can sometimes happen when Reiki energy flows through you and your body and mind start to release blockages or suppressed emotions during or after the treatment. It means you are ready to release an old past, pattern, feeling or the energy that is no longer serving you for your highest good, opening you up to receiving renewed energy, harmony, abundance, making you feel more in alignment with your higher-spirited self. And likewise, apart from the hands-on healing for a practitioner, they can gain psychic abilities from their heightened intuition. For this instance, I may be seeing colours, images, or receiving messages or insightful guidance while being the energetic channel during the session. This experience enhances our connection to the spiritual realm.
(Please Note: The statement's reference to practitioners acquiring "psychic abilities" requires an open-minded consideration. While numerous practitioners report a significant improvement in their intuition, such as a sense of knowing or an instinct regarding where energy is needed, this is typically seen as an increased awareness of subtle energy rather than as fortune-telling or traditional psychic phenomena. Some practitioners may utilise terms like "clairvoyance" or "clairsentience" to characterise their enhanced sensory perception, but this primarily serves to facilitate the healing process rather than to provide general psychic readings.)
After the session, you/individuals may feel more balanced and could experience a release of stress, increased clarity and positivity, or emotional relief.
The fundamental principle of Reiki is to assist you to alleviate negativity and stress and restore balance and harmony to the body’s energy system.
The primary purpose of booking a session is to facilitate letting go and releasing energies that no longer serve you. Reiki emphasises peace, balance, serenity, alignment, positivity, ultimately guiding individuals toward their best selves.
What to expect after your session? including self-care recommendations
After completing your Reiki, Crystal Healing, Chakra Cleansing & Balancing, or Aura Amplifying with Crystals or other therapy sessions, it is strongly advised that you take your time to compose and settle yourself back into your body or presence. You can take as much time as you need. Once you are completely backed into yourself, you should feel more relaxed, lighter and grounded.
It is also possible to experience temporary detoxification, such as a mild headache or tiredness, which can be experienced but usually subsides quickly. These sensations are considered normal and can represent a form of energy integration and emotional release.
To support your well-being after the session and in the days that follow, it is important to drink an adequate amount of water to stay hydrated. Getting an early night's sleep or ample rest, consuming lighter meals, reducing stimulants and avoiding alcohol or caffeine, along with spending time in nature, are beneficial self-care activities to maintain for at least 2–3 days post-session and are highly recommended.
Understanding your session time
Having Reiki or other energy healing treatments is not a rush process. The minimum time required for a proper session typically is at least 1 hour or more, depending on your selected session options. Please allow the time for yourself to wind down, relax and receive the Reiki energy or other energy healing during your treatment, allowing for a period to settle in before and after the session. It is good to remind yourself that when you book your appointment, it is one way of showing yourself care and love, and it is fair to say that it should be approached with respect as a personal sacred for oneself. This time is an opportunity for you to slow down, relax, reconnect and recharge.
Our time allocations for each package option are general guidelines. Sessions should generally progress as stated. Please ensure to arrive on time to maximize your experience and benefits from each session.
Prepare yourself before your Reiki and other sessions
To enhance your experience with Reiki and other modalities, it is advisable to maintain personal hygiene before your session. We encourage you to arrive in a state of comfort and cleanliness, including wearing comfortable, clean clothing and socks, etc. Maintaining personal hygiene before your appointment can offer your body and mind a refreshed state, allowing you to feel more relaxed. This may facilitate a deeper state of relaxation and a greater receptiveness to healing energy during your session. It is wise to arrive a few minutes earlier; it also will allow time for you to settle in and prepare for the upcoming session without any rush.
Additionally, if you experience any cough, sore throat, runny nose, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, cold, flu, or Covid-like symptoms, joint pains, migraine, or headache or have just had a major operation, surgery, or injury, as well as if you have any rash, allergies, or sensitivities or anything of a similar nature, you MUST inform us prior to your scheduled appointment. If your overall health condition is not improved or you are not well enough and ready for having a treatment. Rescheduling will be necessary, and adjustments will be made to suit. Please be considerate of others, as it is important that we ensure a safe and hygienic space for all clients, including yourself.
We thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
