What should I expect during my first visit?

What is Reiki?

Reiki is a gentle, energy-based healing practice that promotes deep relaxation, stress relief, and overall balance in the body.

​

The word Reiki comes from Japanese:

“Rei” meaning universal

“Ki” meaning life force energy

During a Reiki session, Molly uses light touch or hands placed just above the body to help encourage the natural flow of energy. The goal isn’t to “fix” anything, but to support the body’s own ability to relax, restore, and heal.

No. Reiki works whether or not you have prior experience with energy healing. Many clients simply enjoy the relaxation and stress relief it provides.

What should I expect after a Reiki session?

Many clients feel relaxed, grounded, and refreshed. Some notice emotional clarity or improved sleep following their session.
