Questions & answers
Helpful answers about Reiki, remote healing, what to expect during a session and how to book with Healing You.
Reiki is a gentle energy healing practice that supports relaxation, balance and wellbeing. During a Reiki session, the practitioner offers healing energy through calm hand positions or hands held slightly above the body, creating space for you to rest and settle.
You will have time to arrive, ask questions and talk briefly about how you are feeling. You then remain fully clothed and either lie on a treatment couch or sit comfortably while Reiki is offered in a calm, private room.
Reiki can involve gentle, respectful hand placements, but it can also be given with hands held just above the body. If you prefer no touch, please say so before the session and Michelle will work hands-off throughout.
No. Reiki sessions are fully clothed. You only need to remove outdoor coats, shoes or anything that feels uncomfortable while resting.
Session lengths depend on the treatment you choose. Most in-person Reiki appointments are around 60 minutes, with shorter remote healing options also available.
Wear comfortable clothing that helps you relax. Soft layers are ideal because your body temperature can change slightly when you are resting deeply.
Everyone responds differently. Some people feel calm, sleepy, peaceful or lighter. Others notice warmth, tingling, emotions coming to the surface or simply a sense of having paused. It is usually helpful to drink water and take things gently afterwards.
Many clients choose Reiki when they feel stressed, anxious, overwhelmed or emotionally tired because the session offers quiet time and deep relaxation. Reiki is a complementary wellbeing practice and does not replace professional mental health or medical support.
No. Reiki is offered as a complementary wellbeing practice and is not a substitute for medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. Please speak to your GP or healthcare professional about medical concerns.
Angelic Reiki is a gentle form of energy healing that many clients experience as nurturing, peaceful and spiritually supportive. It is suitable for people who are drawn to a softer, heart-centred healing session.
Usui Reiki follows the traditional Reiki approach with calm hand positions and a grounded treatment structure. Angelic Reiki has a more spiritual focus and may feel more intuitive or expansive. Both are gentle, fully clothed and offered with care.
