Usui Reiki

Creating space for your mind and body to rest, reset and restore.

Modern life can leave us permanently switched on - thinking, planning, caring, working, worrying and generally carrying far too much in our heads.

Reiki gives you permission to put some of that down for a while.

My sessions combine Reiki with deep relaxation and dedicated time in which nothing is expected of you. Many of my clients describe feeling deeply relaxed during treatment and value having somewhere they can properly stop, rest and reconnect with themselves.

You don't need any particular spiritual beliefs or previous experience of Reiki to come for a session. You don't even have to be entirely sure what you think about it.

You can simply come because you'd really like an hour where nobody needs anything from you.

WHY PEOPLE CHOOSE REIKI

People book Reiki for all sorts of reasons. Often it's simply because they want:

  • Dedicated time to rest

  • Deep relaxation

  • Space away from stress and overwhelm

  • Time for themselves

  • Support for their emotional wellbeing

  • Space to reflect during a period of change

  • A wellbeing practice alongside a difficult or demanding period of life

  • An opportunity to slow down and reconnect with themselves

Some clients come specifically because they enjoy Reiki and energy work. Others choose it alongside hypnotherapy, mindfulness, relaxation or lifestyle work as part of their wider wellbeing support.

Reiki is a complementary wellbeing practice. It isn't intended to diagnose or treat medical or mental health conditions and should not replace appropriate healthcare.

MY APPROACH

My approach to Reiki is grounded, inclusive and client-centred.

Reiki originates from a Japanese energy-healing tradition, and I respect those origins while providing it in a way that feels accessible to people with a wide range of beliefs.

If chakras, energy, crystals and oracle cards are your thing, lovely - there is space for that.

If they're absolutely not your thing and you just want to lie somewhere comfortable, switch your brain off for a bit and receive Reiki, that's equally fine.

There is no belief system you have to adopt to work with me.

As a Reiki Practitioner, Registered Midwife, Hypnotherapist, Mindfulness Practitioner and Personal Trainer, I bring a broad understanding of physical and emotional wellbeing to my practice. Where appropriate, Reiki can sit alongside other approaches I offer - but it is equally valid to book Reiki simply because you enjoy Reiki.

WHAT TO EXPECT

We'll start with a brief conversation about how you're feeling and whether there's anything you'd particularly like to focus on.

You'll then get comfortable on my therapy couch, and I'll guide you through a personalised relaxation before beginning to channel Reiki energy to you. The session also incorporates elements such as crystals, chakra and energy work, aura cleansing and can include optional oracle card for reflection.

You don't have to do anything.

Some people remain completely aware throughout, some become deeply relaxed and some fall asleep. People occasionally describe sensations such as warmth or tingling, seeing colours or imagery, while others notice very little during the treatment itself.

There is no correct Reiki experience and nothing you need to make happen.

WAYS TO RECEIVE REIKI

Bespoke Relaxation & Reiki

A 45-minute in-person session beginning with a personalised guided relaxation before moving into Reiki and chakra rebalancing.

This is dedicated time to stop, get comfortable and allow yourself to properly switch off.

45 minutes | £35

Extended Reiki Experience

A longer, 60-minute session for those wanting a little more time and a more immersive Reiki experience.

Alongside deep relaxation and Reiki, there is additional time for energy and chakra work, an aura scan and cleanse where appropriate, longer integration time and an optional oracle card reading at the end of your session.

60 minutes | £45

Individualised Online Reiki

Reiki doesn't require us to be in the same room.

This live, one-to-one 45-minute appointment takes place via Zoom, Microsoft Teams or Whatsapp and combines a personalised guided relaxation with individual distance Reiki.

You have dedicated time with me before and after the Reiki while being able to receive the session comfortably in your own home.

This can be particularly useful if distance, mobility, health, a busy life or simply personal preference makes an in-person appointment less suitable.

45 minutes | £35

REIKI AS PART OF PERSONALISED SUPPORT

Reiki doesn't have to sit in its own little box.

Some clients come solely for Reiki. Others choose to incorporate it alongside hypnotherapy, mindfulness, relaxation or health and lifestyle work.

For example, someone working on stress or burnout might use hypnotherapy to address established patterns while incorporating Reiki as dedicated time for rest. Someone making significant lifestyle changes might use Reiki alongside practical behaviour-change work when slowing down and looking after their emotional wellbeing is part of the bigger picture.

There is no expectation that you combine services.

We'll only use approaches that you are comfortable with and that make sense for you.

A LITTLE EXTRA SUPPORT

I also offer three complimentary Reiki sessions for people currently undergoing active cancer treatment.

This is something I choose to offer because I understand personally how consuming cancer treatment can become. These sessions are simply intended to provide some dedicated time for rest and wellbeing alongside your medical care.

Reiki does not treat cancer and these sessions are not an alternative to medical treatment.

If you are currently receiving treatment and would like to ask about this, please get in touch.

READY FOR SOME TIME OUT?

You don't need to be completely exhausted before you're allowed to rest.

If you've never experienced Reiki before and aren't sure whether it's for you, you're very welcome to ask questions before booking.

Or, if you're already thinking “just give me an hour where nobody bloody wants anything from me”, I suspect you've found the right page.
