Reiki originates from Japan and is an ancient form of alternative medicine and holistic treatment called energy healing. The Reiki facilitator functions as a channel for the energy and helps the client activate their flow of energy in the body.
Physical sensations, such as warmth, cold, and tingling feelings in body parts, can often occur during a treatment but it varies from time to time. What happens on the inside during a reiki session is hard to describe and must be experienced.
These experiences you get from reiki, especially from a course where you learn how to work with this practice yourself, are incredible and add so much to our life. If you are interested in wellness, self-development, and helping others, reiki is definitely something for you.
Everyone can learn reiki and it is very easy to practice. My hope is to spread this amazing knowledge and energy work around the world and want to share my passion for this with you through my courses. I have had closer to 100 reiki students in total in step 1 and 2!

Reiki FAQ
The client lies down on a massage bed or yoga mat with clothes on and the facilitator lightly puts their hands on certain areas on the client's body. The client can often feel that the facilitator’s hands are very warm, or cold, and also feel tingling sensations in the body during the treatment. The physical reaction can also result in an energy boost or a very calm and relaxed state depending on what the client needs. Hence, the experience varies and each session is unique.
There are in total three different courses and levels:
Step 1 – “Okuden”
Step 2 – “Shoden”
Step 3 – “Shinpiden”
In step 1, Okuden, we learn how to work with physical reiki and do treatments. We also go through its history, how to create a reiki business, spiritual guidance, how we can work with the chakra system, and more. We learn the first symbol and how to use that.
In step 2, Shoden, we go beyond time and space, and work with distance reiki. You will learn two new symbols and how to use those in both physical and distance treatments. We also go through more tips and tricks, how to use reiki when manifesting, how to go beyond time and send reiki to your past and future etc.
In step 3, Shinpiden, which is the final course, we learn three more symbols and go through everything you need in order to have your own reiki courses. We learn about reiki boosters, the initiation, kotodama, and much more.
No, you can work with reiki already after the first step.
No, you can just use it just for yourself and/or friends and family if you want to.
Yes.
You can always take the steps again, but remember that once we have been initiated with reiki, we never lose it. Once you start practicing and using the energy again, you will quickly feel a stronger energy flow.
Once you’ve taken all three steps, you become a Reiki Master, and once you start educating others yourself, you become a Reiki Grand Master.
You can use it to give this energy boost and dose of inner calm to yourself, friends, family, even animals! You can also use it while working with your clients if you’re e.g. a hairdresser, coach, trainer, etc. The sky's the limit and you can be as creative as you want.
Since we learn how to work with the energy beyond time and space in step 2, you can go back and heal past memories and experiences, as well as give reiki to yourself at any moment in the future.
Reiki also helps us develop a lot personally and many reiki practitioners experience that they feel more calm and centered, as well as improve their psychic abilities the more they practice reiki. It’s common to develop clairvoyance, claircognizance, clairaudience, etc.
No.
Prepare yourself for intense days with a lot of new insights, knowledge, and experience. Hence, if possible, give yourself some time before and after to rest and digest, if possible.
