With Reiki having ancient roots in Japan, it can be difficult to explain in western terms.
As we're aware everything is created from energy. Energy is within us and around us. Energy helps plants to grow and permeates the molecules of the air that we breathe and the water we drink. |
What is Reiki? A brief introduction to Reiki Sessions and Classes with Teresa.

So why, if it’s all around you, would you want to go for a Reiki session or learn how to practice Reiki?
Have you ever noticed how, when you’re stressed about something you feel off-balance? All your emotional energy is so focused on that which has you stressed, that you have little space in your mind for anything else…it can feel like you’re stuck, that “things” are just not flowing.
The same may happen when dealing with a physical illness or injury, recovery from physical or emotional trauma, ptsd… all of our physical energy focuses towards healing and it can often take a long time to “feel like ourselves” again.
At these times, when our energy becomes stuck, we still have access to it, but it can be feeding us like a slow dripping tap, when its natural state is more like a waterfall. Reiki can help us to access that waterfall again.

A Reiki treatment encourages our body and mind to draw upon the energy around us, to balance and harmonize that which is within. To get the energy tap opened up and flowing again.
A Reiki practitioner learns specific techniques and undergoes a series of attunements that seals open that energy flow, allowing them ongoing access to the waterfall, for themselves and to share with others. |
Reiki Myth: I have heard some say that they fear allowing “bad energy” to enter their being.
When working with the natural energy of Reiki it is sourced from a beautiful and universal space, that which nurtures and heals the earth and its inhabitants. I’m not really sure what could be thought energetically bad about that. Our bodies and our minds are also very protective of us and will filter that energy, drawing only what we need.
When providing Reiki sessions, clients responses have included:
” I feel so peaceful and that feeling has lasted for days “
“Where you placed your hands I felt such heat (cooling, tingling, …) and it felt like your hands were still there after you moved them”
“I actually don’t have any pain (nausea, anxiety,…) my headache is gone”
” I feel so peaceful and that feeling has lasted for days “
“Where you placed your hands I felt such heat (cooling, tingling, …) and it felt like your hands were still there after you moved them”
“I actually don’t have any pain (nausea, anxiety,…) my headache is gone”
As a Reiki teacher and practitioner for 25+ years I have been amazed and overjoyed in witnessing the effects of this gentle, healing energy in the lives of my clients, my family, and in my own life.
Reiki in my experience is a technique that evolves with me through time. The way I work with it changes sometimes, however, the basic connection to its peacefulness remains stable and radiates through those changes.

I love my sessions with Teresa. Not only is she a very caring person, but she has the education, credentials and has more than one discipline to draw on. Being sensitive to energy, I was looking for a Massage Therapist who was more than just a technician, but also worked intuitively. Teresa is able to incorporate her techniques and intuition to such a degree that each session feels custom-made for whatever ails me at a particular time. I always come a way feeling that more than what I asked for, has been relaxed, repaired and re-aligned. I am so glad I finally found some one of Teresa's caliber! ~ Inga Daina Frank
