Reiki

A Therapeutic Energy Practice

Reiki is a gentle, hands-on (or hands-off) energy healing practice rooted in Japanese tradition. It works by channeling ki, or life force energy, to support balance in the body, mind, and spirit. When offered in a therapeutic setting, Reiki becomes more than energy work — it transforms into a deeply somatic, soulful, and psychospiritual experience.

Whether you're seeking grounding, clarity, emotional release, or simply space to rest and receive, Reiki offers a beautiful, non-verbal path toward healing and reconnection.

Nervous system regulation and grounding

Emotional release through body-based awareness

Trauma healing by creating safety and energetic discharge

Inner child and parts work by accessing deeper subconscious layers

Enhanced mind-body connection and interoceptive awareness

From a spiritual psychotherapy perspective, Reiki may invite:

Soul-aligned insights and intuitive clarity

A deeper connection with your higher self or inner knowing

Space to receive, surrender, and soften

Integration of energetic, emotional, and spiritual healing in alignment with your beliefs

The Science Behind Reiki

While Reiki is often considered an energetic or spiritual practice, there’s a growing body of research exploring its benefits — especially in relation to stress reduction, nervous system regulation, and emotional wellbeing.

Here’s what the science is beginning to show:

Reiki has been linked to reduced heart rate, blood pressure, and cortisol levels, all signs of a more regulated nervous system.

Brain imaging studies suggest that Reiki may help shift the body into a parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) state, supporting deep relaxation and recovery.

Clients often report improved sleep, mood, pain management, and an increased sense of calm after sessions.

Reiki may enhance the body’s natural healing processes by encouraging balance at the physical, emotional, and energetic levels.

While the mechanisms aren’t yet fully understood, researchers believe Reiki may work by stimulating the body’s biofield — the electromagnetic field that surrounds and interconnects with the physical body. By influencing this subtle field, Reiki may help support coherence and flow in both the nervous system and the emotional body.

Reiki is not a replacement for medical or psychological care, but it can be a powerful complementary support — especially when offered in a trauma-informed, therapeutic space.

What to Expect

In a Reiki session, you’ll be held in a gentle, non-judgmental space where your body, energy, and emotions are all welcome.

Here’s what a typical 1:1 Reiki psychotherapy session may include:

A Calm, Welcoming Space

You’ll be greeted with a soothing, peaceful environment designed to help you settle and relax from the moment you arrive. Whether this is your first time experiencing Reiki or you’re returning to deepen your practice, you’ll be supported with care and intention.

Personalized and Intuitive Support

Every session is unique. Our practitioner will tune into your energy and work intuitively, focusing on any areas where emotional, energetic, or physical tension may be present. You’re welcome to share any intentions before beginning, or simply receive.

Relaxation and Energy Balancing

During the session, you’ll lie fully clothed on a comfortable treatment table. Our Reiki practitioner will gently place their hands on or just above your body to guide energy where it’s needed. Clients often describe sensations of warmth, tingling, or a calming wave of release.

Grounding and Integration

After your session, there’s time to slowly reawaken, ask questions, or share anything that came up. You may feel lighter, clearer, or deeply rested. We’ll offer simple suggestions to support continued grounding and integration post-session.
