Q: What is Reiki?
A: Reiki is a holistic, energy-based practice that promotes balance in the body, mind, and spirit. It works by supporting your body’s natural ability to heal itself, often creating a deep sense of calm and clarity. It's gentle, non-invasive, and works well alongside conventional care.

Q: How can Reiki help me?
A: Many people turn to Reiki for stress relief, emotional healing, mental clarity, and physical relaxation. Personally, Reiki has helped me release long-held emotional trauma and manage anxiety/depression. Every session is unique, but many clients leave feeling lighter, more grounded, and more connected to themselves.

Q: What are the benefits of Reiki?
A: Reiki supports the whole person—body, mind, and spirit. Some of the most common benefits include deep relaxation, reduced anxiety and stress, emotional release, improved sleep, increased clarity, and a greater sense of inner peace. Over time, Reiki can help shift old patterns, support healing from past trauma, and create space for new energy to flow. Many clients describe it as a reset—a chance to reconnect with themselves in a calm, supportive space.

Q: What can I expect after a Reiki session?
A: After a session, you may feel calm, energized, emotional, lighter, or even sleepy—it’s all normal. Sometimes, Reiki stirs up what’s ready to be released, and that can bring about what’s often called an emotional detox. You might feel more sensitive for a day or two, or notice old feelings coming to the surface so they can clear. This is part of the healing process. Drinking water, resting, and being gentle with yourself can help support the integration. Most people find they feel clearer and more balanced after giving their energy a little time to settle.

Q: Is there any scientific support for Reiki?
A: Yes. While energy work is still being studied, Reiki is used in a growing number of hospitals, cancer treatment centers, and hospice programs around the world. Medical professionals recognize its benefits in reducing stress, easing discomfort, improving sleep, and enhancing overall well-being.

Q: Do I have to believe in Reiki for it to work?
A: Not at all. Reiki doesn’t require belief—it simply flows. Whether you're spiritual, skeptical, or somewhere in between, Reiki meets you where you are and supports what you need in the moment.

Q: Does Reiki go against my faith?
A: Reiki doesn’t promote or oppose any religious belief. It works through the same loving, intelligent life force that flows through all of creation—the energy that sustains everything. Many people feel a deeper sense of alignment with their personal faith through Reiki, because it meets you where you are and honors your inner truth. 

Q: Can Reiki help if I’m an empath or highly sensitive person?
A: Absolutely. Reiki is especially supportive for empaths and HSPs (Highly Sensitive Persons) because it helps clear energies you may have absorbed from others and strengthens your personal energetic boundaries. If you often feel overwhelmed, emotionally saturated, or drained by the energy around you, Reiki can offer a safe space to reset and realign with your own natural rhythm.
