What is Reiki?

You: Okay...but what is Reiki?
 

Me: Great question!

Reiki is a gentle form of energy healing.

​

It helps your body move out of survival mode and into a place where it can finally take a deep breath.

 

Let's be honest...

 

Most of us have been running on stress, caffeine, and "I'll deal with it later" for years.

​

Reiki is one way of giving your nervous system permission to stop gripping quite so tightly.

Reiki Energy Healing

Here's what to expect

First, we'll talk.

​

We'll chat about what brought you here and what you'd like to focus on.

​

Maybe you're feeling emotionally exhausted.

​

Maybe you're carrying stress in your shoulders (because apparently that's where we all store our entire lives).

​

Maybe you're simply curious.

​

Or maybe you'd rather not share anything at all.

​

As long as we're clear on your comfort level and consent preferences, we're ready to begin.

​

Then I'll guide you through a short meditation before you settle onto the table.

Your job is easy

Lie down.

​

Get comfortable.

​

Receive.

​

Seriously...that's it.

​

Using light touch—or hovering if you prefer—I'll move through a series of Reiki hand positions while allowing the energy to flow where it's needs to.

​

People experience Reiki differently.

​

Some notice...

✨ Warmth

💛 Deep relaxation

🌿 Tingling

🌈 Colors or imagery

😴 Falling asleep

😭 Emotional release

​

There isn't a right or wrong way to experience Reiki.

Your comfort comes first

✓ Touch or no touch—your choice.

✓ Prefer no crystals? No problem.

✓ Sensitive to scents? We'll skip them.

✓ Want quiet instead of conversation? Absolutely.

✓ Need to change something during the session?

 

Just let me know.

​

Your session is exactly that— your session.

GENTLE• GROUNDING • RESORATIVE

Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, physically tense, or simply ready to slow down, Reiki offers a quiet space to reconnect with yourself.

​

Your body already knows how to heal. Sometimes it just needs permission to exhale.

What about intuitive messages?

Sometimes they happen.

​

Sometimes they don't.

​

As I work, I may receive images, symbols, emotions, or themes connected to your healing journey.

​

If I do, I'll share them with you afterward.

​

Healing doesn't have to be dramatic to be meaningful.

I don't force them.

​

And I don't pretend every image carries some life-changing meaning.

​

Take what resonates.

​

Leave the rest.

My hope isn't that you leave thinking, "Wow, Rachael fixed me."

​

My hope is that you leave feeling a little lighter, a little calmer,

and a little more connected to the healing that was already waiting inside you.
