Frustrated. Totally wiped out. Can Reiki really help?
“Energy healing,” or Reiki, might sound like something your crunchy aunt swears by. But here’s the thing: sometimes, the most effective solutions to your problems come from the most unexpected places.
You know that feeling of being utterly stuck? Physically tight, mentally fried, and emotionally drained? You can’t pinpoint the source, just that EVERYTHING feels off. Western medicine often leaves you with pills and a pat on the back, but what if the answer lies beyond the physical realm? Maybe there’s more to it than just putting a bandaid on the symptoms.
In a Reiki session, you lie on a comfortable massage table. The practitioner gently places their hands on or near your body, focusing on areas where energy blockages are believed to be present. The practitioner also analyzes and helps you correlate energy blockages with physical sensations in the body.
Here’s what one of our patients had to say about her Reiki session at Colorado Natural Medicine & Acupuncture:
“A recent experience with Reiki changed my perspective on what it means to heal energy. Here’s the deal: I booked a massage with Kim Masia at CNMA (she’s a licensed massage therapist who also is a Reiki practitioner). Honestly, I was just thinking about some of the holistic self-care ideas Dr. Graves mentioned, not about qi specifically. But after Kim expertly worked out the physical knots between my shoulder blades (seriously, where did all that tension come from?), something unexpected happened.
“It wasn’t just my muscles that felt lighter. It was like a wave of emotional clarity washed over me. A weight I didn’t even know I was carrying lifted. My heart felt lighter, my belly relaxed, and I felt this profound mental clarity. Honestly, it was like a complete mind-body transformation.
“Eastern medicine posits that qi/ chi (energy) flows through our bodies, and qi blockages can manifest as physical and emotional discomfort. Reiki aims to move this stagnant energy, restoring balance. It wasn’t a quick fix, but the combination of physical manipulation and energy work helped me understand the connection between my emotional state and physical tension.”
Intrigued? Skeptical? That’s okay. But if you’re ready to explore a different kind of healing, something that goes beyond pills and ambiguous diagnoses, then maybe you should try Reiki. It might just surprise you.
