What is Reiki

Reiki is a gentle, non-invasive healing technique which originated in Japan, having been discovered and introduced by the spiritual teacher Mikao Usui and is now used all over the world.

Reiki works holistically on every level of our being: physical, emotional and spiritual, by releasing blockages from the body’s main energy centres (chakras) thereby allowing the pure universal life energy of Reiki to flow freely through us, calming and healing us as it goes. Reiki is channelled by a qualified practitioner and may be performed using gentle touch or no touch at all. You will remain fully clothed throughout.

Reiki is widely acknowledged to promote deep relaxation, strengthen the immune system, enhance emotional well-being, reduce stress and aid better quality sleep. It cannot cause harm and is suitable for everyone. This includes pregnant women, the elderly, those undergoing chemotherapy, children, babies and of course animals.

Reiki is a complementary therapy and should never replace conventional medical treatment.

What to expect during a Reiki session with me?

Serene Path Reiki is located at my cosy cottage near the river in Maidenhead, Berkshire, where I offer a peaceful and serene space, perfect for healing and reconnecting with your authentic self.

At your first appointment, I will ask you to complete a New Client Form, which is both mandatory and confidential. We will spend a little time exploring and discussing your needs and wishes for your treatment. I will then invite you to make yourself comfortable, typically on a Reiki/massage table with blankets for comfort if you wish.

During treatment you may experience feelings of warmth, light tingling, a gentle pulsing or you may feel nothing at all. More typically though, you may feel deeply relaxed and it is also quite common to feel the sensation of emotional release. You may see colours or images in your mind. All of these are perfectly normal but vary from person to person.

Please note that my treatment room is on the first floor of my cottage, up one flight of stairs with a handrail. If you feel access is of concern to you, please contact me to discuss.

Private driveway parking is available.

I am a member of the UK Reiki Federation and I am fully insured.

“I’d like to express my sincere gratitude to Janice at Serene Path Reiki for her incredible reiki sessions. One in particular stands out. I had mentioned I was struggling to write for a project. The session was as always wonderfully relaxing and I could feel the energy flowing through me. Afterwards Janice suggested I do some writing later that day as she had set a specific intention to help me write freely. That evening when I sat down to work on my project, I quickly realised something had shifted. I found myself far more focused and my writing just seemed to flow from my pen with ease. Janice truly has a natural gift for energy healing, and I am deeply grateful for the positive impact her sessions have on my life.”
