The method of receiving Reiki is simple. The recipient remains clothed and lies on a couch, massage table, or sits on a chair and relaxes. The practitioner gently places their hands in a series of non-intrusive positions on or near the body. There is no massage or manipulation. The whole person is treated rather than specific areas. Sessions can take 45 minutes to an hour-and-a-half, depending on the client’s needs.

Reiki practitioners are not trained in diagnosis and will not predict any specific outcome from treatment. If people are concerned about their symptoms, they should see a doctor. 

Each person experiences Reiki differently depending on their individual needs at the time.  Clients may or may not feel sensations during a reiki treatment. Benefits reported by recipients include deep relaxation promoting a calm, peaceful sense of well-being on all levels. Some people feel sensations of heat, tingling, or experience seeing colors, while others can have an emotional response, indicating that shifts are taking place, allowing harmony to be restored. 

Yes, a well-trained Reiki practitioner should be certified and have received their training in person with a Reiki master teacher who’s certified or licensed by a reputable Reiki training organization.

Unlike typical Western massages that primarily use oils and involve kneading and rubbing muscles, Thai Yoga Massage is performed fully clothed on a floor mat. The therapist uses hands, thumbs, elbows, and feet to apply pressure, as well as gently stretching and manipulating the client's body. 

Anyone!  Thai massage is for the young and old, and all ages and body types in between.  The massage can be adapted and adjusted to suit everyone’s needs and requirements.  People come to work through tension in the body, improve mobility and flexibility, and simply to reduce stress and enjoy the deeply relaxing experience of thai massage. 

Bring or wear comfortable clothing for the massage, this can be anything that is stretchy and breathes.  Examples of clothing:  t-shirt or tank top and workout pants or shorts.  Sometimes in a longer session as the nervous system settles, the body temperature may drop and having a light long sleeved shirt to put on may also be helpful.  Try not to eat or drink a lot of fluid prior to a session.  Thai massage is a dynamic form of massage that involves twisting and movement, it is more comfortable to receive on a light stomach.
