About Reiki
A path to natural healing and inner peace
Reiki is a gentle yet powerful Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. Unseen life force energy (ki) flows through us - it's how we're alive. If your life force energy is low, stuck or stagnant then you are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, you are more capable of being happy and healthy. It's about restoring balance and harmony to your energetic system, supporting your body's natural ability to heal.
The origins and meaning of Reiki
The real inner meaning of Reiki is 'True Self'. The system developed in Japan through Mikao Usui in the early 20th century. The word Reiki translates as 'spiritual energy', which is all-encompassing. It is practiced by gently laying hands on and around the body.
How Reiki works
I've been a Reiki practitioner since 2009 and completed my Master training in 2026. I have been 'attuned' to Reiki energy and have undergone extensive training in how how to work with the energy.
Reiki will kick-start your body's own natural healing process. Reiki helps to clear energetic blockages, balance your energy and promote a sense of deep relaxation.
Healing is not 'done' to you - there is really only one healer of your body and that is you, because all healing is self-healing.
There are no known contraindications, meaning that Reiki is safe for everyone including pregnant women.
What to expect
Sessions last around one hour and include a professional consultation and after care advice.
How does a session go?
Upon arrival, we will go through a brief consultation. Then you will lie down and relax. You will be fully clothed at all times and I provide cosy blankets and an eye mask if you'd like one. I start around your head and move down your body, placing my hands gently on and around your body.
What will you feel?
During a session, you may experience warmth, tingling, or simply a profound sense of peace. You may not experience anything other than deep relaxation - you might even fall asleep, and that is fine.
In the days and weeks following your session(s), you may gain incredible insights because Reiki creates an energy shift, allowing blockages to release and any underlying issues come up to be resolved.
After care
When the session is coming to a close I will gently rouse you and give you a few minutes to adjust back into your day. You will be offered water and we will have a brief chat about your session.
Cost, payment and how to book
All sessions are £55. I accept card payments but prefer a bank transfer.
In-person sessions are available on Tuesdays in Morpeth, Northumberland. Please email or call me to book your session - go to my contact page.
