Spiritual Beings | Reiki & Energy Healing | Benfleet, Essex

A healing technique based on the principle that the therapist can channel energy into the patient by means of touch, to activate the natural healing processes of the patient’s body and restore physical and emotional well-being”. Oxford English dictionary The Japanese word ‘Reiki’ literally translates as “Universal life force energy’. This non-invasive system of healing was developed by Mikao Usui in Japan and allows universal life force energy to flow into your energy centres, chakras, to clear blockages, promote balance, harmony, energy flow and wellbeing. It has been taught and used in the UK since the late 1900s, but Eastern medicine has for thousands of years worked with this energy, recognising its flow through all living things. It is an intelligent form of healing, the energy goes to the part(s) of your mind, body and spirit that need it most, for the highest good of all. You may also see Reiki referred to as Energy Medicine.

Before you arrive I create a sacred space and invite in universal healing energy for your highest good. We will have a chat, complete a new client form (if you haven’t already done this online) and set your intentions for healing. Reiki is given fully clothed, in a gently lit treatment room with soft music and healing frequencies or we can take the table outdoors into my garden and listen to the sounds of the birds and neighbourhood (weather permitting). You will be invited to lay down on your back on my treatment bed, which I’ve lovingly prepared with fresh linen and snuggly blankets. All I ask is that you simply be, there’s nothing for you to do but listen to my voice and relax. I will place my hands gently on or near your main chakras. I will show you the hand positions before I start and please do tell me if you find any of the hand positions uncomfortable as I can adapt. Towards the end I will ask you to roll onto your side so I can access your back. It can also be given seated if you are unable or do not wish to lie down. I will invite you to bring in some gentle movement, before slowly moving to a sitting position. We’ll then spend a 5-10 minutes to share anything that arose during the session whilst enjoying a hydrating water and a grounding snack.

During my Reiki training I received a number of sacred attunements which enable me to channel energy which emits as electro-magnetic or bio-magnetic energy from my hands. Science is beginning to catch up with this ancient wisdom and quantum physics has begun to explain and measure how Reiki works, as energy exists beyond the physical realm and can be directed through intention and focus. The frequencies of the energy emitted from a Reiki therapists hands can be scientifically measured and these frequencies appear to correspond to those that medical researchers have identified as being the optimum frequencies for stimulating the healing process in tissues, bones and other body parts so far investigated. Quantum physics also suggests that particles can be connected over distances, a phenomenon known as entanglement, which some use to explain how distance healing might work.
