course overview
This is the first step to begin your Reiki journey. This two-day course will introduce you to the incredible Life Force Energy. You will learn how to use this natural healing energy, and immediately after receiving your ‘First-Degree Attunement’, you will be able to begin to use Reiki energy to enhance your life and the lives of others close to you.
Although many Reiki Practitioners dedicate themselves solely to this work, you will also gain knowledge of how Reiki can compliment any other forms of therapy you may practice.
Reiki is practiced both ‘Hands-On’ or ‘No-Touch’ methods. We teach in a very ‘Hands-On’ way but if you prefer to stay ‘Hands-Off’, we will totally respect your decision and adapt your experience to suit your wish.
