In Person Reiki Healing Treatment

In Person 1:1 Reiki Healing Treatments are given in a comfortable and peaceful environment with you remaining fully clothed (apart from shoes) and involve the placing of hands very gently either on or above the body at various positions. This is the most popular and traditional way to experience the benefits of Reiki. Learn more in the FAQs further down this page.

 FAQs

  • Before your first Reiki treatment with me, I will ask you to read my privacy policy and complete a short medical questionnaire. I will then introduce myself properly, explain the origins and practice of Reiki and tell you what will happen in the session. I will ask why you have come for Reiki and answer any questions you may still have. Before every treatment, I will ask you to read and sign a disclaimer.

    During the Reiki treatment, I will move around you and direct healing energy to different areas of your body by placing my hands either lightly on or directly above you in various positions. This takes approximately 1 hour. I like to play relaxing music during treatments, and use fairy lights, candles, incense, Florida Water and Aurasoma* pomanders to enhance your sensory experience and create a calming atmosphere.

    After your treatment, there will be time for us to discuss your experience and I will share any observations I made.

  • The cost of a Reiki treatment in the UK is determined by each individual Reiki practitioner based on factors such as experience, demand, costs of hiring a treatment room and travel costs. My prices range between £15 for a group healing session and £65 for a full 1:1 Reiki treatment.

  • Reiki is a gentle yet powerful complementary therapy that may be used alongside orthodox healthcare but it is not an alternative to conventional medicine. You should always consult your doctor regarding acute or infectious conditions or problems of an urgent nature.

Testimonials

  • 'I love my Reiki sessions with Gillian as I know that I am in safe hands.  The energy flows beautifully from Gillian's hands and she knows instinctively where to place her hands on the areas of the body that need extra healing, whether that be for physical or emotional reasons.  From the first instant of lying down, the treatment begins with a calm and confident approach from Gillian, allowing me to sink into a wonderfully still and relaxed space.  After the healing treatment, Gillian offers an interesting insight into what she has learned from the session and every time these insights offer an extra dimension to the healing for me as these relate to my current or past experiences in life and how I am feeling at the present time.  I leave the Reiki session feeling calm, relaxed, in tune with my body and at peace with my life and the world around me.'

    1:1 Reiki Treatment - J McD, Christchurch

  • 'The reiki treatments I have received from Gillian have enabled me to affect positive effects on my own health.  Each session has been a most comforting and reassuring experience which has helped me overcome both physical and emotional problems.  At my last treatment, from the moment I entered the room I felt calm, comfortable and at ease with Gillian.  During the treatment I felt very relaxed, both in mind and body and was able to switch off completely to the extent that I fell asleep.  The reiki energy I received made me sink into a deep puddle of relaxation.  Immediately after the treatment I felt energised yet relaxed and sleepy.  My body felt rested.  During the few weeks prior to my treatment, my stress level had been high and I had been having only 4-6 hours sleep per night, but when I got home after the treatment I managed to relax and have an early night and to get a solid eight hours sleep!  It surprised me how much this treatment helped.  The next day, my energy levels were high, I still felt rested, I enjoyed my day and felt a positive energy surrounding me.’

    1:1 Reiki Treatment - TF, Christchurch

  • 'I have been receiving reiki treatments from Gillian for about a year and find the benefits of reiki treatments compliment my tai-chi and yoga practice, which I have been doing for several years.  Gillian always makes me feel at ease and she ensures the reiki session meets my needs on the day.  I would thoroughly recommend Gillian as a reiki practitioner.'

    1:1 Reiki Treatment - GR, Highcliffe

  • 'I had not had any Reiki before having my first session with Gillian and I was intrigued as to what it entailed and how it would make me feel.  At the start of the session, Gillian immediately made me feel at ease and at the same time, was very professional.  I could also sense her passion for Reiki. She was very knowledgeable and explained the process and the origins of Reiki, how it works and the related sections of the body.  She explained how the treatment works, and what she would be doing during the treatment.  At all times she made me feel welcome, comfortable and at ease.  The environment was comfortable, quiet and Gillian had made a real effort to make the perfect setting, with fresh flowers and the smell of essential oils and soft music.  I thoroughly enjoyed the Reiki treatment.  I could not believe just how relaxed I felt during the treatment, with a complete feeling of calm, although invigorated afterwards.  It is definitely something I would do again and I am looking forward to further sessions with Gillian.'

  • ‘I am new to reiki healing and before my first session with Gillian, I was a little sceptical but Gillian’s relaxed approach put me at ease and ensured a wonderfully relaxing experience. I am now very interested in reiki healing and look forward to future treatments.'
