What is Reiki?
Reiki is a powerful ancient Japanese healing art therapy for stress reduction and relaxation which also promotes healing.
It was brought into the west in the 1980s. It was founded by the Japanese Master Dr. Mikao Usui.
Reiki has become very popular and is now widely used in hospitals, nursing homes, health spas and by holistic practitioners and other interested individuals all over the world. It is a non-intrusive complementary therapy, administered by the “laying on of hands” and is based on the idea that an unseen “life force energy” flows through us and is what causes us to be alive.
Reiki enhances the body’s own innate ability to heal itself on all levels. It helps restore balance and harmony to the mind, body and spirit. The energy involved in Reiki healing is the universal energy that surrounds all life. Reiki is used to great benefit throughout the world by people of all creeds and belief systems.
If one’s “life force energy” is high, we are more than capable and able to be happy and healthy, whereas, if one’s “life force energy” is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress.
Reiki is actually “spiritually guided life force energy”. The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words – ‘Rei’ which means “the Higher Power” and ‘Ki’ which is “life force energy.”
Healing / Spirituality is right here in our ordinary, everyday life. Healing is for everyone.
Reiki is a powerful tool to enhance and maintain physical, emotional and mental well-being. It is a very simple process which offers many benefits and which usually produces quite profound effects. It is very important that the person wants to be well and will usually also need to make some lifestyle changes so that the source of stress and negative emotion does not recur.
Reiki does not promise a miraculous cure from disease and conditions that have manifested for years in the physical body, and they cannot be cured in a few sessions.
Bringing the Physical, Emotional, Mental and Spiritual bodies back into balance takes time.

“I was introduced to Antoinette, of Zen Yoga, by a very dear friend of mine, who gave me a gift for my birthday. However, I am not sure that my friend was aware of the wonderful gift that she gave me, as the following sessions with Antoinette have proved to be invaluable to me.
I was suffering with anxiety, like so many others. Antoinette, in a most professional way, but also in a most personal way, helped me on my journey over a number of weeks, by her insight, her understanding, and her relaxed acceptance of where I was in my life’s journey.
She would say that she is a channel of a higher power. I think that once you accept this and are open to exploring what this might mean for you, that it will bring many feelings and emotions to the fore for you to experience but not judge.
She was an amazing help to me in dealing with particular situations and individuals. She gave me a lot of many useful tools to help me with my anxiety in particular situations and I have to admit, that having used these simple tools, that they work!
Antoinette is a most congenial person, with everyday situations in her own life, who has helped me enormously in my stressful situation and I can testify to her caring and helpful guidance and help in dealing with life’s emotions and reactions to same.
I would recommend Antoinette to anyone who is willing to be open and accepting of ways in dealing with, what we perceive, to be difficult situations. Life has a way of throwing us curve balls from time to time, but it is how we deal with them that matters. Antoinette can, most certainly, help you should be you willing to listen and experience.
In grateful appreciation,
Mary Lynch”
“Antoinette has provided profoundly effective distance reiki healings on me. She has nurtured my mind, body and soul with empathy, compassion and love.
Her talents and gifts run through all of her work. She has given me the ability to heal myself also by teaching me relaxation techniques, breath-work, restorative yoga practice and has aided me along my journey of spiritual awakening and awareness.
She is overflowing with an abundance of knowledge and wisdom. Antoinette has a deep understanding for the pain of others and a genuine approach to helping people heal and improve their well-being.
Her heart lies in the centre of her work. I have felt safe and cared for in her hands at all times.
I am truly grateful.”
“After a car crash and weeks of physiotherapy, I was still experiencing pain. As a busy working mother, I felt that this was negatively affecting all areas of my life.
I’d heard of Reiki before but I had really no idea what it entailed. If I’m honest, I was very skeptical that it would actually work, but, desperate to feel like the old me again, I said I’d give it a shot. I never imagined the impact it would have on my life!
The first session was so overwhelming. Dealing with the past is something I’d been too busy to ever do. After just a couple more sessions, I relaxed into it and I was genuinely fascinated by the things I saw during the treatments.
Apart from the significant physical improvements, I was more surprised by how it affected me emotionally. It has definitely made me more relaxed and content. I am much more aware of what’s important to me in life now.
I feel Reiki has helped me start a new chapter in my life and I’m looking forward to the future.
Thank you so much!”
“I received Reiki on numerous occasions with various practitioners and masters in the past. I recently finished a course of Reiki sessions with Antoinette and it was an experience that I would qualify as ‘pure.’
Her treatment room is perfect; the attention to detail through music, smells, candles, a very comfortable table and hand-picked artwork creates the perfect environment for receiving healing. A Reiki Master acts as a channel, a media to facilitate the flow of energy towards the client.
Antoinette’s devotion to this process makes her a very pure channel, thus ensuring a very effective course of treatments. I could not recommend enough such a dedicated and enlightened Master.”
“I have been attending Reiki sessions with Antoinette for over a month now and I have found it to be a wonderfully relaxing experience .
The studio is warm and inviting and Antoinette’s open friendly manner immediately put me at ease.
Antoinette is obviously passionate about Reiki and healing.
I can honestly say that since I started Reiki my health issues have begun to improve and I feel calmer and happier.”
“I have been attending Reiki sessions since November 2014 with Antoinette. I was not familiar with the practice, but personal circumstances and the failings of other remedies led me to try other avenues.
My sessions have been very emotional and powerful and they have given me the strength to deal with many personal strifes that I have faced and to let them go.
Coupled with my regular yoga practice with Antoinette, there is a balance in my life and my mind is clearer and more ready to face life’s challenges.
Thank you Antoinette xxx.”
“I am very satisfied with the results of my Reiki sessions with Antoinette. For some time, I’d been struggling with physical fatigue and also trying to mentally cope with two miscarriages.
I attended four consecutive Reiki sessions, which improved my condition dramatically. The first two sessions were quite tough, clearing the accumulated bad energy.
Then, the following two sessions gave my spirit a fresh boost of positive energy.
It was a unique experience and I would very much recommend it to everyone ready for it.”
“What a fantastic experience! I went from feeling totally overwhelmed by difficult emotions to peace of mind in just 4 weeks.
All the same problems still exist but I now have space between them and myself and can tackle things with ease.
I highly recommend getting in touch with Antoinette.”
