Reiki practitioners use a technique called palm healing or hands-on healing through which a "universal energy" is said to be transferred through the palms of the practitioner to the patient in order to encourage emotional or physical healing. Afterward, the therapist will begin by asking you general questions to establish what areas you would like worked on, if there are any conditions needing to be addressed, and determine if massage is appropriate for you.
Your massage therapist may perform certain assessments and testing to evaluate your condition. It is important to list all health concerns and medications so the therapist can adapt the session to your specific needs without doing any harm. Acupuncture is a treatment in Traditional Chinese Medicine TCM that involves the use of hair-thin needles on particular points throughout the body. The needles are inserted and promote the realignment of the flow of qi, the energy that runs through a person's body.
In TCM, the inability of qi to flow freely through different pathways is part of the reason people experience different health problems. People use Reiki to relax and strengthen their wellbeing; reduce pain, anxiety, and fatigue; help manage symptoms; reduce side effects of medications; and support recovery after injuries or surgery.
Many people prefer a minute session for optimal relaxation. Always allow relaxation time prior to and after the session. The way the oils are made is important, as essential oils obtained through chemical processes are not considered true essential oils.
