Reiki Healing

Reiki was founded by Dr Mikao Usui in the early 20th century and is Japanese for 'Universal Life Energy'. We live in a world of energy that maintains and nourishes all living things. When this energy flows uninterrupted​ there is a balance and harmony within and around us, and we experience a sense of well-being. This ener​gy is slowed down or restricted during stressful times; it is during these times that our ability to allow this energetic flow through our systems is reduced and we start to feel unwell. 

There are many variations of Reiki but in essence all Reiki treatments can help the body emotionally or spiritually. Gendai Reiki Ho, a system developed by Sensei Hiroshi Doi and which simply means 'Modern Reiki Method' is the system followed at New Beginnings.

Anyone can enjoy and benefit from Reiki. It can be used alongside other conventional or complementary treatments and often helps to provide emotional support during recovery. Reiki can bring peace and centeredness along with an ability to cope better with the challenges life can throw at us; for example, relationship break ups, grief, stressful times at work or at home. Reiki can also be helpful at the end of life helping to promote a sense of peace and acceptance. 

We will sit and chat about how you're feeling and things you may be experiencing so your treatment can be tailored to your specific needs. Then the method of receiving Reiki is simple. You remain clothed, lie on the massage bed or in a chair covered with a cosy blanket and relax. Soothing music is played and calming essential oils are diffused around the room. My hands are gently placed in a series of non-intrusive positions on or near your body. Sessions can be an hour or an hour and a half; deep relaxation is experienced promoting a calm peaceful sense of well-being. Some people feel a sensation of heat, tingling, or experience seeing colours while others have an emotional response indicating that shifts are taking place allowing harmony to be restored. Most people feel relaxed and at peace after a treatment, some will find reaching decisions easier or will start clearing. Some feel tired while others feel full of energy.   

Treatments take place in ''The Cosy Cabin'; a warm and welcoming space in a rural setting where you can switch off and completely relax. The cabin has been purpose built in my garden to provide the perfect treatment and training space with a lovely homely feel. There has been great attention to detail to promote comfort and relaxation; from the quality of the massage table, to the softness of the pillows and cosiness of the blankets.  .
