People often come to Reiki with curiosity, questions, or uncertainty they don’t always know how to put into words. This page is here to meet those questions honestly and gently. It’s simply about understanding Reiki more clearly.
Reiki is a way of working with awareness, attention, and the body’s natural capacity to regulate and restore balance. It isn’t something that belongs to a practitioner, and it isn’t something that gets “given” to you. Reiki is free and universally available.
Support can be helpful when you want a grounded space to notice what you’re experiencing and make sense of it; especially if sensations, emotions, or questions feel unfamiliar.
Reiki often works by enabling relaxation and helping the nervous system feel calmer and more supported. When the body feels safer and less rushed, it can naturally move toward balance.
Some people notice physical sensations, emotional shifts, or mental clarity. Others notice changes over time, such as feeling steadier, resting more easily, or responding differently to stress. There’s no single way it should feel.
Sometimes it’s both, and that doesn’t make it unhelpful or unreal.
Human awareness uses sensation, imagination, memory, and intuition together. What matters most isn’t labeling the experience, but noticing whether it feels grounding, calming, or clarifying.
No. Reiki isn’t something you perform correctly or incorrectly.
You can get distracted, overthink, feel unsure, or feel nothing at all. None of that means you’re doing it wrong. Curiosity and questioning are normal parts of the process.
Because your body and nervous system change from day to day.
Reiki doesn’t show up the same way every time. Sometimes sensations are noticeable; other times they’re subtle or absent. Not feeling anything doesn’t mean nothing is happening. It simply means your system is responding differently at that moment.
You don’t need support to access Reiki. Many people choose support to help them understand what they’re experiencing.
Just as breathing is natural, but learning how stress affects breathing can be useful, Reiki is always present, but having a grounded space to talk things through can bring clarity and ease.
Slowly, and with attention to your body.
If energy awareness starts to feel overwhelming, that’s usually a sign to pause, ground, or simplify; not to push through. Reiki works best when the nervous system feels safe. Listening to your limits is part of working with it well.
Reiki doesn’t remove life’s challenges, but it can change how we meet them.
Many people notice they feel a bit more present, less reactive, or more able to rest. Those small shifts can make a meaningful difference in everyday life.
Curing refers to the elimination of a disease or condition. It typically involves medical treatments that eradicate the underlying cause, such as antibiotics for an infection or surgery to remove a tumor. Healing, on the other hand, is a broader concept that encompasses physical, emotional, and spiritual recovery. It involves restoring balance and well-being, which can occur even if a disease isn’t completely cured. Healing focuses on the individual’s overall experience and can include coping with a chronic condition, emotional support, and personal growth.
No. Reiki is not a medical treatment and does not replace professional medical or mental health care. Many people use Reiki alongside other forms of support as part of their overall well-being.
An in-person session is a calm, grounded space to explore your questions and experiences together. The focus isn’t on achieving a specific outcome, but on understanding what you’re noticing and how your body responds.
There’s no need to believe anything or have a particular kind of experience.
Virtual sessions offer the same conversational, grounded support as an in-person session. Some people notice relaxation or clarity during the session, others notice changes later. Feeling neutral or uncertain is also completely normal.
The emphasis is on understanding and orientation, not performance or guarantees.
Most sessions last about 50–60 minutes. This allows time to settle in, ask questions, and explore your experience without rushing.
For individual sessions, cancellations or rescheduling must be made at least 24 hours in advance. Sessions cancelled with less notice will be considered a no-show. No-shows are not refundable.
For classes, cancellations must be made at least 7 days before the class start date to receive a full refund. Cancellations made after that time are not refundable, but the deposit and tuition may be applied to another class within one year of the original date.
