Reiki is spiritual consciousness. It is directed by the Higher Power/Higher Self energies and has been proven to be effective at helping with any physical, emotional, or mental issues that one may be working through. It tends to work from the outside in, addressing disturbances in the subtle energy bodies and moving into the physical body over the course of a few days. Reiki restores order and balance to the energy body, calming the mind and stabilising the emotions.
As well as helping with deep rooted physical or emotional issues, Reiki is a wonderful method of relaxation and provides effective stress relief. Those who regularly use Reiki find it an invaluable healing energy at times of emotional turmoil, stress or change, bringing insight and clarity of mind, helping to let go of the past.
Reiki Treatments at Energy Therapy
Reiki has evolved over the years into many different styles, each slightly different from each other but following the same essential core teachings. Jaime blends both Western and Eastern approaches, focusing on the more intuitive, spiritual healing methods favoured in Japan. Every Reiki treatment the client receives is tailored to their needs at that time.
Jaime has been working with energy since a very young age and is able to tap into the highest levels of Reiki available at this time, using both sacred symbols and the power of sound to facilitate deep healings within the body and mind of each client. In addition, the vibrational frequencies of Aura-Soma® are applied to help bring about balance in the physical and subtle bodies.
The Benefits of Reiki
Reiki can help with a wide range of health problems and issues including anxiety, stress, bereavement, back pain, chronic fatigue, co-dependent relationships, depression, infertility, fatigue, anxiety, feeling stuck, feeling run-down, high blood pressure, hyper-activity in children and other childhood complaints, hypo- and hyper-thyroidism, indigestion, insomnia, irritable bowel syndrome, migraines, M.E., M.S., ovarian cysts, post-natal depression, post-operative care, rashes and other skin conditions, self-esteem issues, sinusitis, stress, worry or just a need for a bit of TLC.
Reiki is not mind-directed energy, polarity therapy or magnetic healing. With these other approaches, the energy practitioner must see or sense the energy and direct it with their conscious mind. Illness is largely seen as negatively charged energy and the practitioner pulls it away and out of the client using their positive charge.
Reiki energy is always guided by the Higher Power and works with the inherent intelligence of the body/mind to correct imbalances. If there is too much energy in an area, or not enough, there is an imbalance and the potential for illness to manifest. Reiki corrects the imbalance leading to greater harmony, wholeness and health. The Reiki practitioner does not diagnose but may indicate to the client any insights that are given to him/her during a healing session.
Reiki is a heart-centered energy and is often experienced as the receiving of unconditional love. This form of love has the power to bring the client back to a state of peace and harmony, health and wholeness. It requires no philosophy or religion. You don't need anything to be "wrong" to benefit from it. While it is well known for its ability to treat ailments of all kinds, the underlying purpose of Reiki is to align you with your spiritual path. Regular treatments enables one to be more at peace, in balance, intuitive, and well in body and mind.
Reiki was referred to as "the secret of inviting happiness through many blessings, the spiritual medicine for all illness" by its founder, Sensei Usui.
What to expect
The person coming for a reiki treatment will be asked to lie down on a massage bed whilst fully clothed and invited to close their eyes and relax. Jaime will lay his hands lightly on the body, usually the head or shoulders, to tune into the client's energy field. Either immediately or soon after, Reiki will begin to flow through the hands into and around the client's physical body and energy body. Jaime gently tones and chants once the energy begins to flow, moving around the physical body and channelling energy into and around those areas where he may sense an imbalance.
Usually people experience Reiki as a soothing heat coming through the practitioner's hands, along with a tingling sensation as energy travels along the meridian pathways. Often a deep sense of peace and relaxation prevails during and after a treatment. People may see beautiful colours or hear music, and there may be a need to laugh or cry as the emotional body releases stored patterns.
If it is your first consultation and treatment, Jaime will run through any issues affecting your physical well-being as well as exploring your emotional history to determine the core issues that you are currently facing. This approach allows you to become involved in your own healing process at a deep level and sets a primary intention so that the Reiki energies can be channelled specifically to those areas to help restore harmony, balance and peace.

Reiki & Sound Healing
The psychic Edgar Cayce predicted that the future of medicine would be sound. Today, people from all walks of life and different professions are beginning to appreciate the power of sound and music to heal and transform.
Sound and music are being used in traditional fields to enhance learning, treat stress and pain, and to bring healing. The use of ultra-sonics in hospitals to destroy kidney stones, for example, works with the principle of resonance, which is the basis of sound healing.
There is currently much scientific research, for example in the areas of psycho-acoustics and physiology, to investigate the use of sound to heal and transform. Although this is still in its infancy, humankind's potential for healing is nearly limitless if technology is applied through a conscious understanding of the importance of intent and the sacred nature of sound.
Reiki, as a system, uses Japanese Kanji characters as symbols, with each symbol functioning as a key to activate a specific frequency of energy, which facilitates stress reduction, relaxation and healing.
Through vocalising the sounds of the Reiki symbols, it is possible to sonically manifest these symbols, creating states of deep relaxation and meditation and actually resonating and releasing areas of imbalance in the physical body and etheric fields.
The use of the voice for healing is called toning, and is probably the oldest, most natural form of healing there is. Vocalising the Reiki symbols is most effective when done through an ancient technique called overtoning, which is used to project specific harmonics into and around the physical and subtle bodies of the person being treated.
The vocal harmonics produced through overtoning not only resonate the physical body and the etheric fields but also vibrate different portions of the brain. Just as it is possible to project healing energy through touch, we can do the same with our voice.
Reiki is an ideal medium to combine with sound because the energy behind the sound is of equal importance to the sound being created. Chanting the name of the symbol or the sound of a series of symbols enhances the overall qualities of Reiki, whilst toning the name of a Reiki symbol beams energy directly into a block or area in need of healing.
Energy Therapy also offers Reiki Drumming and Reiki Didge healings as alternative sound based treatments.
Please read our featured article on the science behind sound for a better understanding of why sound is so powerful.
More information
If you have had Reiki before elsewhere and wish to have a standard Reiki treatment (that is to say, without sound), Jaime will be happy to accommodate your request - please inform him of your preference when booking. However, in his experience, clients consistently prefer to receive Reiki with sound once they have experienced this for themselves.
Although just one Reiki session can make be hugely beneficial, it is usually more effective to have a course of treatments. It may have taken many months, or even years, for symptoms to surface, so it usually takes a little time for the person to fully heal.
Healing is about making you whole by helping you to recognise any thoughts and habits which you need to change, not just removing the symptoms. In our internet-based, fast-paced, "pop a pill and get rid of it" world, we have a great need to slow down, get in touch with ourselves, and trust the process of life once again.
Treatments may be offered weekly, fortnightly or monthly depending on your needs. A treatment plan will be discussed with you on your first visit, and reviewed as necessary. This will always be subject to your preferences and can be changed at any time according to your progress.
Reiki as regular part of your life
A treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person and creates many beneficial effects including relaxation and feelings of peace, security and well-being, with many reporting miraculous results. Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of alternative healing and self-improvement for everyone who wishes to experience its wonderful effects.
Those who regularly use Reiki find it an invaluable healing energy, especially at times of emotional turmoil, stress or change, bringing insight and clarity of mind, helping to let go of the past.
Distant Healing
If it is difficult for you to attend in person - for example if you live in another country - you may wish to consider having distant healing. Please contact Jaime directly to set an appointment.
