Reiki
[WATCH LOUISA EXPLAIN HYPNOSIS ▶]
Your body carries more than you realise. Sometimes it just needs space to let go.
Reiki is a gentle form of energy work that works with the understanding that the body holds more than physical tension.
Stress, emotion, inherited patterns and unprocessed experiences can live in the body's energy field, not just in the muscles and tissues.
Reiki doesn't push.
It creates the conditions for your body to do what it already knows how to do.
What happens during Reiki?
A Reiki session involves gentle, intentional presence and touch designed to support the body's energy moving more freely.
You remain completely yourself throughout the session.
There's nothing you need to force, figure out or make happen.
You simply get to slow down and receive.
What does Reiki feel like?
Everyone experiences Reiki differently.
You might feel warmth, tingling or a sense of energy moving through your body.
Some people experience deep relaxation. Some feel emotional. Some see images or colours.
And sometimes, you simply become very still.
For some people, that feeling of stillness and safety can be something they haven't experienced in a very long time.
There is no right way to experience Reiki.
Why Reiki?
Unlike forms of bodywork that work directly on physical tension,
Reiki doesn't try to force the body to release something.
It creates space.
Space for your nervous system to settle.
Space for your body to soften.
Space to notice what you've been carrying.
Sometimes your body already knows what it needs.
It just needs the opportunity to listen.
What you can expect...
Before
We'll create a calm, comfortable and supportive space for you to arrive exactly as you are.
We'll take a little time to talk about how you're feeling, anything that's been sitting with you, and whether there's something in particular you'd like to bring into the session.
You don't need to know exactly what you want to work on. You don't need to have a goal or a specific intention. This is simply a chance to arrive, settle and give yourself permission to receive.
During
You'll settle into a deeply relaxing experience with gentle, intentional touch and presence.
There's nothing you need to do or make happen. You can simply allow yourself to rest while the session unfolds.
You may notice warmth, tingling, sensations, emotions, images or colours. You might feel something shifting or releasing, or you might experience very little sensation at all.
There is no right or wrong way to experience Reiki.
Your role is simply to notice what your body is communicating and allow the experience to be your own.
After
We'll give you space to gently come back and notice how you're feeling.
You may experience a sense of calm, lightness, grounding or emotional movement. You may feel more connected to your body, or simply notice that there's a little more space within you.
Sometimes the shift is subtle and becomes clearer with time.
There's no expectation for you to feel a particular way afterwards.
Your experience is your own, and your body gets to move at its own pace.
Is Reiki right for you?
This may be worth exploring if you:
Feel like you're carrying a lot emotionally or energetically
Find it difficult to truly switch off
Feel disconnected from your body
Are moving through a period of change or transition
Feel like something is stuck but can't quite explain what
Are curious about energy work and want to experience it for yourself
Want space to slow down, receive and reconnect
Feel drawn to exploring patterns that may extend beyond your own story

Ready to explore?
You don't have to understand everything your body is carrying before you begin.
Reiki is a gentle energy work experience that gives you space to slow down, receive and reconnect with your body. Through intentional presence and touch, the session creates space for your energy to settle and for whatever your body is ready to release or shift to emerge naturally.
You don't need to know what you need before you arrive.
You can simply be curious about what might happen when you give yourself permission to slow down and listen.
