How the Power of Reiki Bodywork Can Support Your Body, Mind & Spirit
In today’s fast-paced world, stress, anxiety, and chronic tension can take a toll on your physical and emotional well-being. At East West Integrative Medicine, we offer Reiki Therapy as a gentle yet powerful healing modality that restores balance, promotes relaxation, and supports the body’s natural ability to heal.
Whether you’re dealing with fatigue, emotional overwhelm, or physical pain, the Power of Reiki Bodywork may be the supportive therapy you've been seeking.
What Is the Power of Reiki Bodywork?
Reiki (pronounced ray-key) is a Japanese energy healing practice that works by channeling universal life force energy through the hands of the practitioner to the client. It’s a non-invasive, deeply relaxing experience that encourages balance in the body, mind, and emotions.
Reiki is often used alongside acupuncture, massage, and other holistic treatments to:
Reduce stress and anxiety
Support emotional healing
Ease chronic pain or discomfort
Promote better sleep
Enhance spiritual well-being
At East West Integrative Medicine, our skilled practitioners can combine Reiki with integrative bodywork techniques to create a customized experience that aligns with your unique needs.
What to Expect During a Reiki Session
Reiki sessions are typically done with the client fully clothed, lying comfortably on a massage table. Your practitioner will use gentle hand placements either just above or lightly on the body, focusing on key energy centers (chakras) to promote energetic flow and release blockages.
You may experience:
A sense of deep peace or meditative stillness
Tingling sensations, warmth, or waves of energy
Emotional release or clarity
Restful sleep and improved mood afterward
Reiki is safe, gentle practice suitable for all ages and conditions, including during pregnancy or after surgery.
