The Combined Reiki and Shiatsu Package

Reiki and Shiatsu are healing therapies from Japan that are gentle to receive, but powerful in what they can enable the body to achieve….. and this is the key, working with the person to encourage their systems to make significant, long-lasting improvements to their health at a pace and in a way, which is appropriate for them as individuals.

These special forms of energy work take place with the client fully clothed and can help give much needed support to aid recovery from a wide variety of conditions. They work in a truly holistic way having the ability to connect in on physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects of the person. When an individual does not make a full recovery from a particular incident or event in their lives, it is often the case that there is some deeply held protection or “energetic blockage” within the body that needs support in order to release. This is where Reiki and Shiatsu can often be most helpful.

Feeling calmer and more relaxed is often the result of a Reiki or Shiatsu session, so people may experience relief from the commonly-seen symptoms of stress and anxiety. People often comment that they also feel more balanced, more in the “here and now“, more energised and more supported and stronger internally after a session.

Recent, independently-assessed research lends weight to such energy work and we cite three examples just to give a flavour:

1. 1. Hartford Hospital, Connecticut, U.S.A. carried out research into using Reiki to reduce anxiety and pain in patients from a number of departments, (Cardiology, Oncology, Orthopaedics etc.) They found a ‘statistically significant decrease in anxiety and pain regardless of the speciality area’.

2. Another hospital-based study in the USA, from 2006, studied the effects of Reiki on women post-hysterectomy. The findings indicated that the Reiki group of women reported less pain and less anxiety than the control group, (and required fewer analgesics).

3. Findings from The European Shiatsu Federation research study carried out by Professor Andrew Long at Leeds University in 2005 concluded:

• 89% of Shiatsu receivers felt calmer and more relaxed
• Up to 60 % of regular Shiatsu receivers slept better.
• 86% said Shiatsu was effective in treating stress and tension, structural and postural problems, low energy and fatigue.
• Overall Shiatsu receivers adopted a more relaxed, healthier and balanced approach to life and had a reduced use of conventional
