what is Reiki?
Natural hands on healing has been used for thousands of years as part of traditional medicine. The stories of energy tell of miraculous healings in many ways. In March 1922 Reiki a Japanese natural healing system was rediscovered and developed by Dr Mikao Usui after his commitment to years of meditation and study of scripture in the hope of connecting to this energy. Madame Hawayo Takata of Hawaii who learned Reiki from Chujiro Hayashi a student of Dr Usui has been credited with bringing the teachings of Reiki to the Western World in the 1940s. Since that time there have been many schools of Reiki that have developed Reiki on Dr Usui’s foundation of the healing energy.
“Trust the process, you do not need to know how it works, only that it does.”

what the word reiki means
The word Reiki (pronounced ray - key) is broken into Rei ‘universal wisdom’ and ki ‘life force energy. Reiki energy is channelled by and through the practitioner to the client in order to allow the universal life force energy to work into the client's physical and emotional bodies and energy fields to realign imbalances encouraging healing. Reiki works directly without any effort or direction by either party. Reiki can never harm and will always work for the highest good of both the practitioner and the recipient of Reiki.
“The universe is asking…Show me your new vibration, I will show you miracles.”
“Reiki is the greatest secret in the science of energetics.”
Madam Hawayo Takata
“Everything in life is vibration.”
What Happens During a Reiki Session?
You may notice sensations in your body during the treatment. The intelligence of your body will draw in the Reiki energy to the place or places it is most needed for your highest good. Reiki treatments can take place either in person or via distance because energy cannot be bound by time, space or location making this possible.
“Reiki is love, love is wholeness, wholeness is balance, balance is well, being, well being is freedom from disease.”
In Person Session
The practitioner works over your energy centres (some hands on, some close to the body but not touching) channelling Reiki energy. You may notice changes in temperature, tingling, energy moving and you may even release emotion as the energy works for your highest good.
“Reiki is the best vibration for helping someone to relax well and deeply. Relaxation is key to human health and recovery because it initiates our natural and innate healing abilities. It is when we are truly relaxed that true healing can take place.”
Distance Session
Reiki is not bound by time, distance or physical location which means you can receive a Reiki treatment even if you are not in the same physical location as your practitioner. Like a radio picks up sound waves, you are able to receive the energy no matter of how far away you are. Just arrange a suitable time, pick a quiet spot where you will not be disturbed and receive the treatment. Reiki will hold you both together in your own unique frequency. Although it is different from an in person session, the Reiki works just as well if not better as many clients report they feel more able to deeply let go and relax in the familiar surroundings of home.
“If you want to find the secrets of the universe think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.”

In January 2014 he received the symbol for Holy (holy meaning whole and complete) Fire and a new way of giving attunments to Reiki energy. Since that time Holy Fire® Reiki has been developed to allow trainings to be conducted entirely online as an upgraded response to the changes covid-19 brought to the world.

Reiki Drum
Reiki Drum combines the essential beauty of and subtle power of Reiki energy with the sacred essence of shamanic drumming. The use of drums has featured for centuries in rituals of many cultures for meditation, healing and celebrating. Research is showing the power of drumming for healing a range of medical and mental health conditions.
In his paper 'The Healing Power of the Drum' Robert Lawrence Friedman psychotherapist and drum facilitator looks at the effect that drumming has on particular groups of people affected by Alzhiemer's, post traumatic stress disorder, sufferers of anger and pent up negativity, at risk adolescents and executives suffering from stress. He found that using the drum allowed for relaxation and the release of tension, creation of energy in the tired, release of anger and pent up emotions, feelings of euphoria, anger release and feelings of connection.
The power of integrating the drum with Reiki brings about deep relaxation, release of bodily tension & reconnection with optimal energetic vibration. Combining these techniques also promotes deep emotional healing, letting go of deep physical pain and tension and the potential for mental and emotional reprogramming of old destructive patterns of behaviour.
“Seemed to be that drumming was the best way to get close to God”
What happens in a Reiki Drum Session?
During your Reiki Drum session the practitioner works with the drum for journeying, healing or mental and emotional reprogramming. Depending on the chosen method of drum work there will be a set pattern of drumming for between 15 and 25 minutes. After the drumming time Reiki energy is channelled for the remainder of the session. By the end of the treatment you will feel very relaxed and peaceful.
“Drum sound rises on the air, its throb, my heart. A voice inside the beat says, “I know you’re tired, but come. This is the way.”
Jessie shares her experience of a Reiki Drum Session
“Healing may not be so much about getting better, as about letting go of everything that isn’t you - all of the expectations, all of the beliefs and BECOMING WHO YOU ARE”
