Reiki FAQ's

DOES REIKI'S STRENGTH VARY?

As stated above, Reiki does vary in strength according to the amount of disharmony within the client. In clients who are seriously ill, or very upset emotionally, the Reiki flows more intensely. This is due to the natural harmony and balance within the Reiki energy. It functions according to the client's need.

Reiki practitioners have also noticed that Reiki apparently turns itself off after the hands have been in one position for any given amount of time. This is usually the practitioner's signal that it is time to change hand positions and move on to the next area.

Also, the Reiki practitioner, having received Reiki's healing energy themselves during these treatments, will feel even stronger and better than they did at the start of the day.

Often, in other healing systems, the healer uses their own physical energy, or chi, to heal the client. This is very draining to the practitioner's own energy. Therefore, each treatment is dependent upon the vitality of the practitioner. After a long day of healing, the healer can need to recharge their own energy.
