Reiki therapists offer indirect yet effective pressure on your muscles to induce relaxation. There is no pressure or manipulation of muscles in reiki therapy.

What Can You Expect During a Reiki Session?
A typical reiki session lasts close to an hour. The reiki therapist will ask you to lie down on the massage table (fully clothed). Then the practitioner will ever so gently place their hands (palms down) on or just hovering above your body. They place their hands on different energy locations. Generally, reiki practitioners use 12 to 15 different hand positions to deliver the gentle ‘massage.’
How to Prepare for Your First Ever Session of Reiki?
Wear loose and comfortable clothing to your reiki session. You can dress in layers, so that you can shed or put on layers if you feel too cold or hot during the session. While you will lie down on your stomach for the most part during your reiki session, the practitioner might ask you to roll onto your back. Hence, remember to take off belts and bulky accessories before the session begins.
