As a natural healing system, Reiki treatments are suitable for everyone, from young babies through to adults as it a safe, non-invasive treatment.  It can be used alongside other complementary therapies or conventional medicine.  Reiki can be administered on a treatment couch or sitting in a chair, therefore making it an easy treatment to receive.  Treatments are fantastic for people who just want to de-stress or for those who may be suffering from an illness or injury.  Reiki can be used as a preventative treatment, helping to keep your body, mind and emotions in balance.  There are no proven contra-indications (current medical conditions) to receiving a Reiki treatment.  However, as a professional practitioner, I will always take a brief medical history from you before treatment begins and if there are any concerns, I will discuss them with you at this point.

If you have a medical problem, please discuss this with me during the initial contact.  I am more than happy to work alongside your doctor or consultant, respecting any medical regime you may currently be following.  Reiki complements both traditional medical practice and other complementary therapies, however serious the condition may be.

There are no guarantees of being able to cure you completely using Reiki, although there are countless cases where this has occurred.  Whatever you may wish to have treatment for, Reiki will definitely help in some way, on so many levels.  Once improvements have been noticed, it may also be time to look at ways of helping yourself to remain in this improved state e.g. Changing old negative ways of thinking, improving ways of dealing with stress, improving your diet, getting more exercise and so on.

No. Reiki practitioners are not trained to diagnose any condition and should not offer a diagnosis.  After taking a brief medical history from you, before treatment commences, I may suggest you visit your GP for a checkup.  They are the only people qualified to make a diagnosis.

Reiki treats the cause of disease, rather than the symptoms, and generally speeds up the natural healing process. Acute injuries may be helped to heal very quickly but chronic illness takes longer. In some cases, such as terminal illness, there is not enough time for the progress of the disease to be reversed but there is usually great benefit and enhancement of the quality of life, giving a sense of peace and acceptance during the time remaining.
