Reduce stress and Relax with the Healing Art of Reiki

We begin with a brief discussion to determine the goals you wish to focus on during the session, emotionally, physically, energetically. At this time, you'll share anything ailing you that you want me to focus on healing or helping you to release. 

My Reiki sessions are usually performed on a client who is fully reclined comfortably on a massage table. It also may be performed on a client who is semi-reclined on a massage chair or recliner. Unlike a massage therapy session, you will be fully clothed. 

Absent Reiki (also called Distant Reiki) Sessions are available for clients who do not have the ability to attend the treatment in person. These treatments are just as effective and beneficial as in-person treatments.

Reiki may be done with a light gentle pressure static touch or my hands may be a few inches above your body at the hand positions with no actual touch. There are standard hand placements beginning at your head or feet, avoiding all sensitive body parts.

At your first session you should plan to arrive 10-15 minutes early so I can go over the session, discuss your goals and complete any necessary paperwork.

Many people, after trying one session, go on to purchase a series of sessions to progressively work on their current wellness goals.

If you have a chronic or current issue, Reiki can be an excellent complement in your health or wellness plan.

Here's what happens during a Reiki session with me...

Most clients feel a sense of relaxation and peace. Your mind may feel calm and your body should feel relaxed. Reiki is so relaxing that sometimes clients may fall asleep during the session. 

Usually a session is done without talking though I may have soft ambient music playing in the background to aid in your relaxation. Of course, you can speak up about any requests or questions. 

My hand placements may cause you to feel a very slight tingling, heat, or energy, or nothing at all. The sensations or lack of are not a barometer of the Reiki, they are just how your particular body senses energy. It is different for all clients but deep relaxation is almost always felt.

After your session, you will be in your full awake state, but possibly feel more grounded and centered. A five minute brisk walk to your car or other transportation will add to your groundedness. 

Please drink plenty of water to hydrate your body as your body’s energy system may be moving at a more optimum rate, so please care for yourself with water and healthy food during the day. It is beneficial to spend some quiet time that day or evening after your session to journal or to contemplate as you may have some insights and further mental clarity as your body continues to process the Reiki session.

Reiki is beneficial and works with your body’s energy. In fact, your own energetic body is in control of how much Reiki it wants and needs during the session and uses it accordingly. Like breathing, you will comfortably take in as much as you need to support you.

"I recently spent two hours with Danielle that included a coaching and a Reiki session. I was immediately comfortable and made to feel like an old friend that was there for some supportive and compassionate counsel. Her friendly and sincere coaching was clear and broken down into simple steps that I could easily implement. The Reiki was beyond what I would've imagined since it was light and airy during the session, yet powerfully effective throughout the rest of the day and into the evening. I would highly recommend Danielle for coaching and Reiki and plan on being in touch with her again in the near future. Much gratitude for her services."

"I had my first Reiki treatment today with Danielle and am feeling great. Having to deal with cancer for almost 2 and 1/2 years, I’ve been exhausted most of the time from pain, treatment side effects and healing from surgeries. Danielle is extremely compassionate and her treatment left me feeling energized and relaxed, which was greatly needed as I prepare for brain surgery in 5 days. I can’t wait to have her treat me again after the surgery. Thank you Danielle!!!"
