Reiki - Frequently Asked Questions
What is Reiki?
Reiki is energetic healing. Currently, there are many different Reiki styles and practices in the world.
In Japanese Reiki consists of two words, namely Rei and Ki. The word Rei translates into English as “universal’ and Ki translates as “life force”, “prana” or “the breath of life”. Thus, Reiki means universal life force, or energy of unconditional love, if you please. Reiki energy is loving and gentle like mother’s touch. A Reiki practitioner channels the universal life force, this beautiful healing energy, into the body of the client. It worth to mention that Reiki energy is a greater intelligence. This energy automatically flows to the area of the body which needs it most. Japanese method of Reiki is hands-on healing that works on a person on all levels.
Why and when Reiki Treatment needed?
At some point, everyone faces discomfort fear, sadness, and stress. Daily challenges can stretch us beyond our limits, and while some people may find solace exercise or meditation, many tend to cling to these emotions long after they fade. This accumulation can cause blockages in our energy systems, potentially resulting in illness. Reiki offers a way to clear these blockages and purify your energy field.
What is included into Reiki session?
Each Reiki session is uniquely customized to meet your individual needs. Upon your arrival, you will enter a serene and relaxing environment accompanied by soothing music. After a brief discussion and completion of paperwork, you’ll comfortably lie on the Reiki table, fully clothed, with a soft blanket and eye pillow provided. You can unwind, release your thoughts, and let go of any stress you may be carrying. Reiki practitioner will lead you to a safe space to experience the beautiful energy of Reiki. You may feel her hands gently placed at various points on your body, clearing away unwanted energies and blockages. Many clients find themselves drifting in and out of a peaceful sleep. The session begins and concludes with the sound of a bell tolling three times. Crystals, pendulum, and Aura Soma pomanders may be incorporated, which will be discussed with you beforehand.
How long is each session?
Your first session will be approximately 90 minutes long, with 60 minutes spent on the table. This will include a 15-minute discussion before and after the session. Follow-up sessions usually last between 60 to 75 minutes, with 45 to 60 minutes spent on the table focused on healing.
What should I bring to the session?
You don't need to bring anything with you—just wear comfortable clothing. It's recommended to take off shoes, heavy jewelry, watches, or glasses. If you have a crystal that you often wear or use, feel free to bring it along.
What should I expect during and after a Reiki session?
We invite you to enter with an open mind and without any expectations. Each client embarks on a distinct journey; some may find themselves enveloped in tranquility, while others might feel a surge of energy and rejuvenation. Throughout your treatment, you may experience pleasant sensations such as warmth, coolness, or tingling, and perhaps even catch glimpses of vibrant colors or even drift into a serene sleep. Remember, every session is one-of-kind.
How often should I have a Reiki Treatment?
For first-time Reiki clients it is highly recommended to have 3 sessions, one week apart, to help clear those long-standing blockages and get on a path to wellness. After the initial visit, session frequency can vary based on individual goals —some may thrive with weekly sessions, while others may need only quarterly or yearly visits. More sessions lead to improved balance and energy. For regular practice consider Reiki 1 training for daily self-healing. Nadia Rise offers all levels of Reiki training, with all courses accredited by the Australian Reiki Connection (ARC) and available year-round.

Can I receive Reiki if I am not physically present?
Absolutely! Distant or Absent Reiki works the same as hands on Reiki and can be sent to a person, situation, animal, time, or place. There is no limitation to the distance or time that the healing can be sent to. As a Reiki Master practitioner, I invoke Reiki distant healing energy frequencies and tune into the person receiving it. This option is ideal for someone living afar – you may be living in a different city, country. Distant Reiki Sessions range from 20-40 mins depending on the intention of client.
Can Reiki be offered to Children?
Children are highly open and receptive to Reiki energy. The duration of a session can vary from 15 to 30 minutes depending on the child's age, and it can be conducted while sitting or lying down. Guardians are required to be present during the session.
Can Reiki be offered to animals?
Animals possess a natural bond with the universal energy, making Reiki a valuable treatment for them. This is especially true for new pets adapting to their environment, animals healing from trauma or abuse, and those dealing with anxiety or injuries. Additionally, depending on the size and situation of the animal, distant Reiki may also be a viable option.
