Reiki for Children and Young Adults
Reiki Energy healing for children is a safe and non-invasive healing method. Reiki helps the body shift from sympathetic (fight-or-flight) anxiety mode into parasympathetic (rest and digest) mode. The session helps to enhance your child’s body’s own self-healing response, assisting the body in releasing deep-seated tensions, aiding in detoxification, and balancing mental and emotional states.

What happens during a Reiki Session?
During the Reiki session, the child/young adult will be lying on a table (fully clothed). The Reiki Healer, at about 6 inches above their body, scanning the body with her hands looking for energy blockages in the chakras (energy centers of the body). After the body has been scanned, the healer will position her hands on or near any areas that need attention or healing. The Reiki healing experience is unique to every individual. Commonly, people feel very relaxed and may feel a tingling or temperature change (heat/cold) where the practitioner’s hands are.
After the session, your child’s body will “detox” any unwanted energy; you will want to make sure that your child is well hydrated. It’s a good idea to drink water before and after the session.
What does Reiki heal and how does it work?
Reiki is a simple and powerful healing technique that balances the energy system of your child’s body; this often leads to improvement in health, increased relaxation and improved mental & physical well-being. If your child’s life force energy is low or blocked, he/she are more likely to become ill (physically or mentally). If it is high and flowing smoothly through the meridians of the body, your child is more resilient to disease or any form of negative energy and is also more balanced energetically. In Reiki, the practitioner does not necessarily need to touch the body. It can be done hands-on or hands-off. It does not require any special equipment or environment.
Is Reiki safe for my child?
Yes, Reiki is absolutely the safest healing method! It is non-invasive, causes no harm, and complements other treatments. The practitioner jump starts the child’s self-healing process, by simply placing their hands gently over the body by either touch or not touching (3 to 4 inches away from the body). The practitioner channels the healing energy and safety transfers to the child. The child feels a sense of calmness and serenity after the session. The effects of this treatment can continue even hours and days after the session
