Reiki Therapy

Reiki is gentle, calm, and nurturing and works particularly well with stress reduction, insomnia, chronic fatigue, and chronic pain.  It helps one to work through their grief and find spiritual integration. Reiki calls upon us to become still and observe the self to allow us to connect to our inner healing resources. My Reiki practice is deeply steeped in a background of Eastern holistic medicine from which Reiki was originally birthed.  This allows a breadth of understanding of the physiology of Ki--or energy-- in the body and how to recognize and treat specific conditions more precisely.  I often incorporate aromatherapy and singing bowls into the Reiki sessions.

What Can You Expect During a Reiki or Zenith Omega  Session?

​

During a healing session, you are fully clothed, lying on a massage table, in a quiet, and relaxing setting. Treatment lasts 60 minutes. I work at your head and feet, as well as above your body along the chakras. Chakras are energy centres in the body where the nerves converge.  Chakras become blocked when you are stressed or in emotional pain and don't have the energy to address the root cause of your issues. Blocked energies lead to you feeling off. You never seem to be rested, find yourself reactive rather than responsive, and your immunity suffers.  By listening deeply to your body, I am able to release the blockages, allowing your energy to flow freely, nourishing each cell. Each session is highly individualized. Most clients report feeling deeply relaxed and grounded, while others feel unwinding sensations as their bodies release tension. It is normal to feel emotional during a session as issues come to the surface to be released. You will be supported as I hold space for you in a safe and nonjudgmental manner.

​

Because each individual response to energy work is unique, the number of sessions needed to resolve issues varies. While one session can provide relief, you may require more treatments before the root cause of your health issue is completely alleviated

​

What To Expect After the First Session?

​

You may feel relaxed, refreshed, tired, or just different. Your body will go through a lot of internal change, letting go of old patterning and integrating new healthier patterns. Although nothing may appear to be happening from the outside, this requires a lot of energy from your body. 

​

Please drink plenty of water after your session as this helps to flush out toxins. Do not do any strenuous activity afterwards as your body needs time and energy to integrate the changes that are taking place. By exercising you are redirecting energy towards that activity and away from the healing work that is taking place. Following your session, your body will continue to process changes. Emotions may be released as things come to the surface to be healed. Rest and continue to hydrate as needed. You may find it beneficial to sit quietly and engage in a breathing practice as you tap into your body over the following days. Please scroll to the bottom of the page for guidelines on a breathing practice.

BREATHING PRACTICE

​

This breathing practice is done lying on the floor (on a yoga mat or blanket) with your legs up on a low chair, sofa or ottoman. Prop your head with a pillow if you wish. You may want to cover yourself with a blanket to stay warm.

Set a timer, so you are not distracted by keeping the time. It’s optimal to do this practice for 20-30 minutes/day, but feel free to start with 10 minutes if that feels easier.

​

Breathe in and out through your nose. Breathe so that the sound of the inhale and the sound of the exhale are the same sound. Do a gentle ujjayi breath if possible (see below), if that feels too confusing, just breathe in and out through your nose and listen to the sound of your breath in your ears.

​

When you are finished, bring your knees to your chest, interlace your fingers over your knees and pause. Roll to your side and pause. Use the strength of your arms to push you up into a comfortable seated position, keeping your spine soft and relaxed. Notice how you feel after your breathing practice.

​

By practicing lying down, your whole spine and central nervous system are supported by the earth. This gives the nervous system the message that it is safe and supported allowing it to let go of tension and stress. As the body lets go of tension, all of its systems can function with greater ease which supports optimal health. As tension dissipates, the body is able to drop into the deeper peace, presence and relaxation that lies within us all. This increases the amount of oxygen in the blood and brings more life force to the body's systems.

How to Perform Ujjayi Breath

Breathe in and out through your nose.

Take an inhalation through your nose that is slightly deeper than normal.

Exhale slowly through your nose while gently constricting the muscles in the back of your throat. If it feels comfortable, keep a few muscles in the throat slightly engaged during your breathing practice, on both the inhale and the exhale.

The sound of the inhale should be the same as the sound of the exhale.

The breath should be even and steady in a relaxed manner.

Relax the jaw and drop the tongue from the roof of the mouth.

Listen to the sound of your breath.
