At The Healing Sanctuary Hub, we believe in transparency and empowering you with knowledge. Below, you'll find answers to key questions about Reiki, how it can support your well-being, and what makes a session with Kerstine a unique and calming experience.
What exactly is reiki?
Reiki is a gentle, non-invasive complementary therapy that originated in Japan. It involves the practitioner placing their hands lightly on or just above the client's body, channelling universal life force energy. The goal is to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and support the body's natural healing abilities, bringing balance to your mind, body, and spirit.
Is reiki a substitute for medical treatment?
It's crucial to understand that Reiki is a complementary therapy and is *not* a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. It works alongside conventional medicine to support your overall well-being. Always consult with your doctor or healthcare provider for any health concerns and before making any changes to your medical treatment plan.
How will reiki benefit me?
Clients typically experience a profound sense of relaxation and calm during and after a session. Many report reduced stress and anxiety, improved sleep, and a greater sense of well-being. Some also notice a subtle shift in their perspective, increased mental clarity, and an enhanced ability to cope with life's challenges. It helps to restore balance and vitality.
How should i prepare for my first reiki session?
For your first Reiki session at The Healing Sanctuary Hub, the most important thing to know is that you will remain fully clothed. You'll lie comfortably on a treatment table, similar to a massage table, while Kerstine gently places her hands lightly on or just above various points on your body. Simply come with an open mind, wear comfortable clothing, and be ready to relax.
