Experience the Benefits of Reiki
What is reiki?
A calming space to pause, unwind and reconnect with yourself
At Revive Reflexology Hitchin, I offer Reiki sessions in a welcoming, peaceful environment where you can take time out from the demands of everyday life.
Whether you are new to Reiki or have experienced it before, my aim is to provide a comfortable and supportive space where you can slow down, relax and enjoy some time dedicated to your personal wellbeing.
With experience in Reiki since 2006, I welcome you to discover more about this traditional Japanese practice and what a session with me involves.
The benefits of reiki
What is Reiki?
Reiki is a complementary practice that originated in Japan in the early twentieth century. It is based on the traditional belief that a practitioner can channel energy through their hands, either by placing them gently on the body or holding them just above it.
Reiki is often experienced as a quiet, meditative treatment. People may choose a session as an opportunity to pause, spend time in stillness and focus on their sense of emotional and spiritual wellbeing.
Everyone’s experience is individual, and there is no particular sensation or response that you need to experience during a session.
What can I expect from a Reiki session?
Your comfort is important to me. I will explain the session beforehand and give you the opportunity to ask questions.
During a typical session:
- You remain fully clothed and relax in a comfortable position, usually lying on a treatment couch or sitting in a chair.
- I use a series of gentle hand positions, either with your permission to place my hands lightly on the body or by holding them just above it.
- You can let yourself rest quietly, with no need to talk or do anything in particular.
- You can tell me at any time if you feel uncomfortable or would prefer an adjustment to the session.
Some people describe feeling peaceful or deeply relaxed, while others simply appreciate having a quiet space away from their usual routine. Your experience may be different each time.
What to expect during a session
Why choose Reiki?
Modern life can leave little room for stillness. A Reiki session offers dedicated time to step away from everyday distractions and focus on yourself.
You may choose Reiki because you would like to:
- Make time for quiet reflection and relaxation.
- Enjoy a calming, meditative experience.
- Explore a complementary approach to personal and spiritual wellbeing.
- Create a regular self-care ritual.
- Experience a gentle treatment in a peaceful, supportive setting.
Reiki is a complementary therapy, and individual experiences vary. It has not been established as an effective treatment for medical conditions, and I do not offer it as a substitute for medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.

Reiki can be offered using light hand contact or with the hands held just above the body. We can discuss your preferences beforehand, and your consent will always be respected.

Experiences vary. You might feel relaxed, notice warmth or other sensations, or simply enjoy a period of quiet. You do not need to feel anything in particular for your session to be worthwhile.
