Reiki, A Way of Attaining
Profound Relaxation & Healing of Illness
Utilising our Natural Power from Within...
Why Reiki?
Besides being a fully qualified Reiki Master, I am an Australian qualified and registered pharmacist by profession. I have always had an interest in spiritualism, spiritual evolution and natural therapies despite my work with conventional medicine.
Reiki, I believe, has a definite role complementing conventional, mainstay medical therapies. Better still, I found that no medicine that I've ever come across in the 20 years since I registered as a pharmacist, relaxes or heals the soul. The soul, or our intrinsic self, is afterall where most health and emotional problems arise from. It is where we need to go to profoundly relax ourselves.
REIKI, I discovered, submits one to an indulgence of sublime relaxation and peace. It does so by allowing us to fall into alpha-sleep during the course of the session. This is the state of being semi-awake that we experience just before falling asleep. It feels like bliss and many clients just want to stay that way and not be woken!
While in this state, it allows us to relax & heal by shutting out stress. It also washes the soul and allows it to breathe freely without tension.
In the days and weeks post treatment, one generally feels lighter. With repeated treatments the gentle releasing of quashed and suppressed emotions and fears , that cause us so much stress, pain and disease starts to occur.
I am amazed at the intrinsic power of the body to heal and replenish itself. REIKI truly astonishes me. It helps me as I travel along my own spiritual journey of inner growth and I'd be delighted to share it with you too.

FACTS ABOUT REIKI
1- Reiki is an ancient Japanese Method of Natural Healing used for millennia before the invention of Modern Medicine.
2- It operates by opening & stimulating the body’s electrical channels (meridians); energy centers and energy fields in and around the body. In doing so, it re-establishes balance to health and so reduces and helps treat illness & disease.
3- Reiki is used for deep relaxation, as it most usually always puts the client into alpha- sleep for the duration of the session. Here, the client is in a semi-awake state feeling deep relaxation (like that experienced just before falling asleep). Stress is blocked out and emotional and physical healing takes place.
4- Regular and repeated use of Reiki provides relief from emotional issues associated with anxiety, anger, trauma, fear, abuse, depression, sleeplessness, energy deficiency, over-activity, insecurity, addictions etc.
5- Reiki boosts immunity by increasing Immunoglobulin A (IgA), so it is helpful in lung, mouth, gum, throat, stomach and intestinal problems. It also aids in the healing of physical ailments & diseases like allergies, high blood pressure, skin problems, hormonal imbalances, infections etc. Reiki is even being used complementary to (with) cancer treatments & AIDS (SIDA).
6- As Reiki opens the body’s energy channels and centers, it gives health, wellbeing and balance well after treatment finishes.
7- Reiki has no side-effects, however a small percentage of people may temporarily feel worse after treatment before feeling better. This is the ‘Healing Crisis Effect.’ It serves to stir up and wash out distressing memories and feelings from the mind & body.
8- Reiki is being used extensively in the West –especially with clients who are not being relieved by medicines or conventional medical treatments.
9- Reiki is suitable from the 4th month of pregnancy to birth. It relaxes the mother and baby & helps to relieve pain and muscular tension, making it a perfect birthing aid. Reiki also keeps mum calm and more able to cope with post-natal responsibilities.

More on Reiki...
REIKI is an ancient Japanese self-healing technique now firmly established and respected in the West. It is a fabulous means of natural healing using hands-on pressure on or over the body's own energy channels and electrical circuitry. It surrenders the mind and body to deep, peaceful, conscious relaxation- like that experienced just before dropping off into slumber at night.
The physical body, mind and soul then proceed to cleanse. Toxins are often expelled through colds and coughs that actually serve to physically dilute the toxins and then forcibly project them to the exterior. Digestive cleansing and water filtration further help to purge harmful elements. One may (may/not) feel teary in the days afterwards. Some of the functions of tears are to rid the body of toxins, reduce stress levels and help control pain. As such, with this mobilisation of body defences, symptoms may sometimes be temporarily exaggerated. But, this is temporary while balance is being restored. Where an exacerbation of symptoms is not plausible, treatments of very short duration are preferred.
Additionally, where and if needed, with repeated and regular use, reiki can bring up long lost, deeply-buried memories. They manifest in intricate detail and with remarkable clarity (almost as though you are actually living them). Answers to questions long pondered, often surface in your sleep, from the depths. This allows the adult mind to readily understand, source and process troublesome personal issues that harm us. Any associated grief can be discharged. In so doing, the body is then capable of removing them one by one, as needed. Even recalcitrant spiritual and emotional stumbling blocks can start to fall away.
Deep fear and anger stored especially in muscles, can cause bothersome physical ailments, serious diseases like cancer and, usually, discomfort to the soul. Soul discomfort is familiar to most, if not all people, in some form or another. This is irrespective of whether we are aware of it or acknowledge it. After all, no-one is born perfect or to perfect parents and surroundings.
Fear and anger disrupts the natural energy flow around the body resulting in blockage. Strong feelings and blockages can manifest in a myriad of ways such as: Various chemical or non-chemical addictions; anxiety; hyperactivity; overwork ; acting out; uncontrolled anger; moodiness; tiredness; weakness; despondency; sleep problems; depression; obsessions; compulsions; a sense of emptiness; being lost; despair; insecurity; need to escape reality- just to name the most common.
These can be vented at the body's natural pace through Reiki, but only in the context of an individual's expressly genuine desire to heal. It can often be very challenging to face deeply buried trauma, fear, anger and pain. It would seem easier to avoid them by whatever means possible. However, evading them perpetuates them. They follow us around wherever we go. They may change form, worsen or become compounded by addictions or social problems. By consequence, the soul's silent and lonely suffering continues unabated. Everyone deserves better than that.
Reiki aides the adult person deal with trapped childhood or other issues such as exposure to violence, abuse etc or even daily stress in a paced, manageable and gentle manner. The body perfectly knows how to and how much to let go of at any given time. It cares for and serves us unconditionally. It is our best friend and should be honoured as such. Astonishingly, Reiki frees us to be ourselves- the people we really are and for the purpose for which we came to exist.
