Frequently Asked Questions

Reiki Healing and Distance Reiki Healing for Relaxation and Anxiety Relief

How will I feel after a session

Most people feel relaxed, calm, lighter, or more grounded after a Reiki healing session. Some experience emotional release or increased clarity. A smaller percentage notice temporary tiredness or brief emotional sensitivity as their system rebalances.

These effects usually last one to four days and are considered part of the natural integration process. Many clients report improved sleep, reduced anxiety, or a sense of well-being in the days that follow. Every person responds differently depending on what they are healing or working through.

How many sessions will I need

Each individual is different. Some clients notice meaningful change after one or two Reiki sessions. Others benefit from a series of sessions, especially when working through long-term stress patterns or emotional challenges.

Every session offers support on some level. Many clients schedule regular Reiki healing sessions for stress reduction, anxiety relief, emotional balance, and overall maintenance.

How does a Distance Reiki session work

Distance Reiki healing works through intention and energetic connection. You relax in a quiet, comfortable space, and I connect with your energy from my practice. Depending on what you want to work on, I may integrate Reiki, Quantum Touch, Emotion Code, Body Code, or intuitive guidance.

I use muscle testing to determine which modality is most supportive, identify trapped emotions or patterns, and work with intention to release or shift them. When using Emotion Code or Body Code techniques, I clear identified energies using a magnet over a representation of the governing meridian.

Clients often feel warmth, tingling, peacefulness, or deep relaxation during Distance Reiki. Others simply feel calm and supported. Distance Reiki healing is gentle, natural, and effective for people of all ages.

Are in person sessions better than Distance Reiki sessions

Both approaches are equally effective. In person Reiki healing provides a dedicated physical space for relaxation. Distance Reiki healing allows you to receive the same benefits from home, which many clients find more comfortable and less distracting.

After more than ten years of working with Distance Reiki clients worldwide, I have seen consistent, meaningful results from both methods. The best choice is the one that feels most comfortable for you.

How is Reiki different from massage therapy

Reiki healing is not massage therapy. There is no muscle manipulation, pressure, or stretching. Reiki works through light touch or hands held slightly above the body to support relaxation, emotional balance, and stress reduction.

Massage addresses the physical structure of muscles and fascia. Reiki works with the flow of life energy and the subtle energy system. People often choose Reiki when they want deep relaxation, relief from stress or anxiety, or a quiet, fully clothed, noninvasive experience. Reiki can also be a supportive option for those who prefer very gentle bodywork.

Does Reiki pair well with other holistic therapies like acupuncture or chiropractic care

Yes. Reiki blends easily with acupuncture, chiropractic care, cupping, meditation, yoga, sound healing, and other body-alignment or energy-based therapies. Because Reiki helps calm the mind and reduce stress, it often enhances the effects of other treatments.

Many clients find that receiving Reiki before or after another modality helps their system integrate the work more smoothly. Reiki supports the body in entering a receptive state, which can make other therapies more effective.

What is the difference between Reiki and Emotion Code or Body Code

Reiki channels universal life energy to support balance, relaxation, and emotional well-being. Emotion Code and Body Code are structured systems that help identify and release trapped emotions or energetic patterns using muscle testing, intention, and magnetic clearing.

These modalities do not diagnose medical or psychological conditions and are not a replacement for medical care or counseling. What they can do is support the body’s natural ability to regulate stress, increase emotional clarity, and improve overall well-being. I often integrate them because they complement Reiki in different ways.
