Reiki Healing Sessions
“Let the waters settle and you will see the moon and the stars mirrored in your own being.“
Rumi
What is a Reiki healing session?
A Reiki (pronounced ray-key) healing session is a gentle energy healing technique and completely natural, and holistic, form of complementary therapy. It is in fact one component of an incredible system developed by a man called Mikao Usui in the early 1900s – a system (also including meditations, for example) designed to guide people to rediscover their true self, beyond their worries, fears, anger, and emotional pain.
During a Reiki healing session, Reiki (translated as “universal life force” or “spiritual energy”) is guided into the body to support the natural flow of energy within; flow which can become imbalanced and stagnated as we go through life, impacting on our wellness and wellbeing. Reiki sessions can gently clear any energetic imbalances, helping to create inner balance and harmony, while stimulating our natural healing abilities.
In essence, Reiki healing sessions can support our wellbeing on physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels. It may seem like these “parts” of us are separate to one another – our minds doing their own thing, while our bodies do another, and our feelings and emotions do another – but in fact these are all intrinsically and innately connected, united in a delicate dance. Together, they create the beautiful whole of who we are. Reiki healing sessions work with this interconnected whole and can positively impact every aspect of our lives and every level of our being. Through the wider system of Reiki, of which Reiki healing sessions are just one part, we can become more deeply connected to ourselves on all these levels, cleansing, harmonising and re-uniting body, mind, and spirit so that our innate inner light – our true self – can shine brightly for all the world to see.
With Reiki in our life, we can be supported on our journey to wholehearted self-love and healing.
It is a beautiful gift, which you wholeheartedly deserve.

What happens during a Reiki healing session?
In-person sessions
A 1hr-1hr15 session including consultation at the start and end of the session, energy balancing and a mindfulness meditation to help you relax.
An in-person treatment with me takes place at the blissful Millers Way Project in Shepherds Bush, West London; an alternative therapy centre with private treatment rooms, where you can treat yourself to the full experience.
An opportunity to relax and unwind, I recommend laying down on a massage table (with a blanket to cover you if you like), but there is also the option to sit, if you are more comfortable this way or have difficulties lying. Either way, we will make sure you are comfortable.
For the next 45 minutes or so, I will place my hands on or over energy centres within your body, or where I feel intuitively guided, and channel Reiki to you. While this is happening, you may feel tingles in your body, warm or cool sensations in your arms and hands, or twitch as the energy works to harmonise. You may drift off to sleep, or you may feel nothing at all which is normal as well – Reiki will still be working.
Once the treatment is over, we can talk through after-care, and I can answer any questions you have.
Sessions last 1-hour to 1-hour 15 minutes.
Distance or “remote” sessions
A 1-hr session from the comfort of your own home, including energy balancing.
If you are unable to attend a Reiki treatment in person, then distance healing is a powerful and equally as effective alternative.
For a distance or remote Reiki treatment, all you need to do is find a quiet, comfortable place in your own home, where you can sit or lie and relax without being disturbed. This is precious time for you. Choose some peaceful music, light a candle, and relax. We can have a call before the session, and afterwards too.

About me
Hi, I’m Katie. I qualified as a Reiki practitioner in 2019, almost a decade into my own journey of healing. I am dedicated to deepening my understanding and practice of the Japanese system of Reiki which focuses on personal development, healing, and spirituality. I practice the system of Reiki on a daily basis, including but not limited to hands-on healing on myself, breath work, and meditation, ensuring my own healing evolves in such a way that I can hold space for my clients and be a clear and open channel for life force energy to flow during a session. I recognise that personal healing must come first, before we can help others.
I have been meditating for over ten years and am a qualified meditation teacher, member of the UK Reiki Federation, and alongside my professional practice, provide Reiki healing sessions on a weekly basis to lovely residents at a nursing centre.
How do I book my Reiki healing session?
Your journey begins here, and I’m so excited for you.
Please complete the following form and I’ll be in touch so we can book in your treatment.
I’ve had several beautiful Reiki treatments with Katie and have cherished each one. Nothing helps me to truly relax and let go of whatever is happening in my life at the time better than Reiki. Katie creates such a loving and welcoming environment and I felt safe and supported from the very beginning. She gives energy readings and feedback after our treatments in a very kind and considerate way, and what she says always strongly resonates. It’s the best part of my self care ritual.
