Preparing To Treat Others
Appropriate Environment
Important to create the right
setting whenever possible
for a Reiki healing session.
Work from home or hire a
room in healing centre
Preparing To Treat Others
The room should be light and
clean, and feel safe.
Make sure you will not be
interrupted by internal or external
distractions.
If your working from home let
your family or friends know your
schedules so they do not disturb
you.
Preparing To Treat Others
Avoid Alcohol.
Alcohol dissipates energy.
Always refrain from
consuming alcohol if you
can at least twenty-four
hours before a session.
Preparing To Treat Others
Personal Hygiene.
Ensure you smell & appear clean &
fresh.
Avoid wearing strong perfumes or after
shaves.
If you smoke make sure you brush you
teeth or use a mouth freshener.
Refrain from eating food that may leave
a smell on your breath.
Wash your hands before a Reiki session
Preparing To Treat Others
The Invocation.
It is important to remember that
as a Reiki practitioner you are
not healing your clients.
The people receiving Reiki are
in fact healing themselves.
You are merely the channel for
Reiki.
Preparing To Treat Others
The invocation is a token
that symbolises you are
giving up any claims to
power.
You are simply the conduit
Your prayer should be personal
and in line with your own
beliefs.

Treating Others With Reiki
Before you begin a full
body treatment there are
a few important points to
remember.
Never give a Reiki
treatment to a person who
has a pacemaker
Treating Others With Reiki
Never give a Reiki treatment to
a person who suffers from
Diabetes Mellitus and are
taking insulin injections
unless they are prepared to
check their insulin levels every
day as Reiki reduces the
amount of insulin they require.
Treating Others With Reiki
Explain to a person who is
having their first Reiki treatment
exactly what you are going to do
and the type of reactions that
might occur.
Stress that any one of these
reactions are normal.
Reiki will go wherever it is
needed.
Treating Others With Reiki
Treating Others With Reiki
Often the client will experience extreme
cold at the position of your hands while
you feel intense heat.
If the client experiences nothing explain
to them that the Reiki energy often works
on a subtle level.
Never forget the client is drawing Reiki
through you.
You are only the channel.
Reiki always travels to the place it is
needed most.
Treating Others With Reiki
No knowledge of the human
anatomy or physiology is
required to work with Reiki.
Leave your ego aside and
Reiki will do the work.
Forget the symptoms treat
the whole person.
Treating Others With Reiki
Listen to your clients body
through your hands.
Sense the different types of
energy. Use your intuition.
Look for non-verbal
communication from your
clients body.
Treating Others With Reiki
A full body treatment takes
60-90 minutes.
At the end of a treatment
always offer your client a glass
of cold water to aid grounding.
Always wash your hands
under cold running water after
each treatment.
Treating Others With Reiki
Beginning The Treatment
Ensure your client is lying flat on
the therapy table with their arms
down by their sides.
Gently lay your hands on your
clients body. Keep them in each
position for between three to five
minutes. As you become more
experienced use your intuition.
Treating Others With Reiki
Your hands should be cupped
with your fingers firmly closed
as though you were trying to
hold water.
In the case of burnt skin or a
clients genitals and breasts hold
your hands just above their body.
Don’t forget the box of tissues.

Treating Others With Reiki
When all the positions have
been treated, place your left
hand on your clients crown
chakra and your right hand at
the base of their spine.
This final position balances
the energy in your clients
body.
Treating Others With Reiki
Complete your treatment by
combing your clients aura 3
times.

2 = Light Stroke on body
3 = In Aura above body
Each time touching floor to
