Reiki

Reiki is a healing therapy which helps to deeply relax the mind, body and spirit, reduce stress and heal the body. Reiki energy is channelled via the hands of the practitioner to the recipient using a number of hand positions on the body. Reiki energy comes from life force energy that is all around us and reiki practitioners simply channel this energy. The hand positions used cover all of the seven main charkas (energy centers in the body) and the major organs. When a person’s energy flow becomes blocked or weakened, this results in emotional or health problems. Imbalances can be caused by many things such as negative thoughts and feelings, a bad lifestyle and emotional or physical trauma. During a treatment reiki healing removes any energy blockages, encourages the recipient to let of negativity, tension and stress and creates a deep feeling of relaxation. The energy also helps to rid the body of toxins and to increase positive energy flow. Reiki is completely natural and safe and can also be used on children and animals. To receive a reiki treatment the recipient lies on a treatment bed and relaxes. Alternatively the treatment can also be given whilst sitting on a chair.

If you are receiving a reiki treatment for a specific condition then it is recommended to have one session per week or one every two weeks until the problem is alleviated. It is then advisable to have one session every month as a top-up in order to maintain well-being and good health.

Hopi ear candles are hollow and once fitted in the ear and burnt act like a vacuum drawing out any impurities and compacted wax.

The ingredients of the candle release healing vapours which travel down into the inner ear and a have positive effect on the auditory canal. There is also a positive effect on the respiratory system as the ear, nose and throat are all connected.
