Reiki honours the individual, both in
the Reiki practitioner and the client. Reiki often
connects to 'psychic' abilities in some people, their
belief systems and particular gifts. It is, after all,
a personal healing art. Emotional release work is
common for some Reiki practitioners and not at all for
others. Most Reiki practitioners integrate knowledge
from other sources and methodologies.
The energy will honour the abilities
of those present. The energy has its own intelligence
and goes where it is needed. It is further directed by
the intent of the client, and in that way strengthens
one's belief about ones own abilities. Treatments can
be conducted in complete silence, while chatting or
through tears and frustration. A Reiki session can be
received lying down, seated or standing up as physical
needs require. A session that last ten minutes can
sometimes be just as effective as an hour.
Cost of Individual Treatments
Again this varies with the individual
Reiki practitioner from $100 to $25 and sometimes free.
Treatment times are usually one hour, although extended
sessions are not uncommon.
