Have you heard of reiki therapy? It could be the perfect option if you are looking for a way to alleviate stress and anxiety.

At our massage studio in Kansas City, we offer reiki therapy sessions to help you return to a place of peace and relaxation.
A Quick Refresher — What is Reiki Therapy?
We did a complete overview of Reiki therapy in a recent blog, so we'll do a quick recap here.
Reiki therapy is based on the idea that the human body has an energy field that can be manipulated to promote healing and relaxation. During a reiki session, our licensed therapist will place their hands on or near your body, allowing energy to flow from their hands to your body. This promotes relaxation, reduces stress, and can help alleviate physical and emotional pain.
A range of techniques is used during a reiki therapy session, including our therapist placing their hands at specific points on your body or using symbols and mantras to enhance the energy flow. Different techniques may be used depending on your individual needs and preferences.
How Does Reiki Therapy Help with Stress and Anxiety?
Reiki therapy effectively treats stress and anxiety by calming the body and mind. This natural approach to healing has a range of benefits, including:
Decreased cortisol levels: Cortisol is known as the 'stress hormone,' and elevated levels can lead to various adverse physical and mental health effects. Reiki therapy has been shown to reduce cortisol levels in the body, which in turn can help alleviate stress and anxiety symptoms.
Improved sleep: Stress and anxiety can make falling and staying asleep difficult. Reiki therapy can help alleviate stress and anxiety symptoms, leading to better quality sleep.
Enhanced relaxation: Reiki therapy can leave you feeling deeply relaxed, calm, and centered. This relaxation can help alleviate stress and anxiety symptoms and prevent further long-term damage.
While there's no one-size-fits-all answer to how many reiki sessions are needed to achieve these benefits, you should start to feel better even after your first session.
The Experience of Receiving Reiki Therapy
If you consider booking a reiki therapy session, you may wonder what to expect during the experience. So – here's a brief high-level overview of what you might experience during your session with one of our Reiki therapy practitioners.
You'll start by discussing your needs and goals with the therapist. They may use essential oils or other techniques to promote relaxation, including calming music or a quiet and private space. During the session, you'll lie down while the therapist uses different hand positions to direct energy to areas of your body that need it. Many clients feel deeply relaxed during a reiki therapy session and may fall asleep. After the session, you may feel more centered and calm, with a greater sense of inner peace.
