Reiki healing is a Japanese practice which has become better known within recent years. It works on the basis that all living beings have a vital life force energy running through them, as with the principles of Chi-Gong healing, Acupuncture and other Eastern therapeutic practices.
When this life force energy is not flowing freely, it can result in cause blockages in all the bodies systems, which results in disharmony, which may show its self as an emotional, mental or physical imbalance.
Reiki practitioners are attuned to sense these blockages, and ease them by attuning to the Reiki energies. Traditionally it is carried out by the laying on of hands, although this isn't necessary, and sometimes crystals can be used to assist the healing.
Although a spiritual practice, it is not a religious practice, and as with other healing techniques, no faith is necessary from the client; just an acceptance that they deserve to be restored to a harmonious state of being.
What To Expect from Reiki Healing
Healing is incredibly relaxing and a very pleasant experience. Clients are encouraged to make themselves comfortable, either on the Healing couch or in a chair, and listen to the gentle relaxing music. The practitioner is working with the energy body, and so physical contact is not necessary, and absent healing can also be practiced.
Crystals may be used within a Healing session to magnify and transmute energy, although this is not always necessary. Within A Reiki session I will rebalance the energy centres within the body known as the Chakras, to allow the life force to flow more freely, easing mind and body, which can release pain, anxiety and discomfort.
Some clients feel slight temperature changes through the session, some don't notice anything, but the vast majority of clients will feel relaxed and surprised of how the time has passed. Most clients report to having a wonderful nights' sleep after a session.
Healing is one of the most beautiful, profound experiences of life. It has to be experienced to be fully appreciated.
Shamanic healing has been practiced throughout the ages, and can be traced back within all cultures. In modern western society, there appears to be a lot of stress, anxiety depression, and disconnection between and within individuals. Such conditions cause secondary suffering within the body, such as auto-immune conditions, and many of today's modern diseases simply didn't exist in ancient cultures practicing Shamanism, as is the case in many Indigenous cultures today.
"In many Shamanic societies, if you came to a medicine person complaining of being disheartened, dispirited, or depressed, they would ask one of four questions: When did you stop dancing? When did you stop singing? When did you stop being enchanted by stories? When did you stop finding comfort in the sweet territory of silence?"

Put simply, enjoying life, feeling connected, and being at peace within one's own mind.
Shamanic practices are ultimately about respecting and recognising the power and life force within all living beings, and connecting with it on a deep level. Shamanic practices can be incorporated into modern life in varying degrees depending on the individual; and experiencing Shamanic healing techniques is a great starting point.
Shamanic Healing differs from other Natural/Spiritual Healing practices as it is said to connect with the clients inner wisdom, or soul; thus enabling a deep connection and insight. By using this inner wisdom together with the universal energy source and effective techniques, very powerful reconnections and accelerating self-healing can be assisted.
Shamanic Healing is more than reconnecting with the source, as it very ceremonial, including the client in the process; and for this reason I see the practice as somewhere in-between other Natural/Spiritual Healing techniques, and dynamic mind therapies such as Hypnotherapy.
There are various Shamanic healing techniques such as Empowerment, Soul Retrieval, De-possession, Past-Life and Ancestral Healings which provide a focus for the session. Shamanic healing can be a stand-alone session, or a course of healing sessions, which can include Reiki or Spiritual healing for a complete healing experience.
What to expect from Shamanic Healing
Clients can expect to feel a powerful energy shift within their mind and thought process. Shamanic healing realigns clients with their inner wisdom, and can bring elements of the self which may have become lost or distant, back, to create a whole more authentic self. Those who experience Shamanic healing for the first time, tend to be very surprised by the effect, and many clients return periodically when they feel power loss or the need to realign.
