Reiki
Find your way back to clarity, inspiration, and stability.
This energetic healing method helps you to let go of old burdens, relieves you of anxiety, and brings you a new sense of hope.
Perhaps you feel like you’ve hit a wall and just can’t shake whatever it is, even if you’re…
- going to therapy
- working through self-help books
- meditating
- journaling
…you just feel STUCK.
What do you do in this situation? Do you take action or let it fester?
Here’s the story of how I figured out how to solve this problem, and perhaps how it can help you, too.
Back in 2020, when we had a lot of time to reflect on our lives, I realized that something felt very off with me. It seemed like I had reached a plateau in my therapy sessions and self-help methods, but there was still a hole in my heart. I felt stuck.
I knew I couldn’t move forward in my life until I could let go of it. I had an idea of what it was – anger and resentment about former boyfriends – and I was tired of carrying around the emotional burden.
It was time to try something else. I asked around and found a Reiki Master to help me with healing myself energetically.
Back then, I had no idea what Reiki really was or how it worked. I just figured it was worth a shot.
During that first session, it was relaxing, I had some interesting memories and thoughts surface, and felt a renewed sense of self.
Afterwards, the Reiki practitioner even gave me a healing technique to really let go of that anger.
And guess what?
After only one Reiki session and using her technique, things started shifting. I no longer felt stuck and I was able to forgive myself and those ex-boyfriends, finally moving on with my life. I even had more confidence and felt stable for the first time in a while. It was a new ME.
I was hooked, so I kept going for more Reiki sessions.
Reiki helps to uncover pieces of me that were hidden away, and gently release painful memories that have weighed me down all these years.
The miracles I’ve witnessed have made me a big advocate for Reiki healing, which led to my own journey in becoming a certified Reiki Master.
Since then, I’ve worked with many people to help them find balance, get back on their life path, and heal emotional pain.
Imagine your Life….
What would it feel like to be more content with who you are?
You have less chaos in your day-to-day, more control over your life, and that general sense of your feet being firmly planted on the ground.
You are okay with riding the ebbs and flows of life, not getting knocked off kilter by the smallest things.
You feel more empowered to take on a big change or navigate a transition, despite the unknowns and fears that are surrounding it.
You are able to slow down more, be present, and not worry about stuff all the time.
You have an excitement for life and feel the confidence to go out and do what you want to do.
This is what it feels like to have balanced energy. Believe it or not, Reiki can help you achieve this kind of life. Keep reading to learn more.
Healing from the Inside Out
Are you experiencing any of the following in your life?
- depression/anxiety
- cloudiness/problems with focus
- residual pain from an injury
- lack of creativity
- feeling unstable/life is chaotic
If you are, you’re not alone. Many people seek out a Reiki session because they have these symptoms and want relief. Below are three real stories from my clients and how things dramatically improved for them after receiving Reiki – sometimes in just 1 session.
A New Excitement for Life
One client came to me during the Pandemic, feeling very low energy and depressed.
What Reiki revealed: Her energy was depleted – it looked dim and every chakra needed reviving. I helped clear and brighten her energy, as well as worked to bring hope and stability back.
The next day, she told me that she went for a walk outside for the first time in weeks. She felt energized and her zest for life had returned after that Reiki session. She even started doing craft projects again.
Here is her testimonial from 2024:
“I have had several Reiki sessions with Emma, which were conducted long-distance. I am amazed at what she can accomplish from over 1,800 miles away. I find the sessions help clear me of physical and emotional issues. She has helped with some body aches and pains, along with anxiety and depression. I find the sessions to be very relaxing and inspiring. When she is conducting the session, you can actually feel sensations in the particular area of the body where she uses her Reiki techniques. I always feel rejuvenated and much clearer after the sessions and I would highly recommend it to anyone that could use a little extra help in life.”
– Laura, South Carolina
Improved Sleep
One of my clients struggled with restless leg syndrome for years, on an almost daily basis. Because the restless leg happened at night, it was causing him to consistently have poor sleep.
What Reiki revealed: Everything from his hips, legs, and feet gets blocked, which creates the uncomfortable restless leg sensations. He has an old injury in his back, which is the source of the energy block, but he also holds stress and tension in his leg and hip area.
During the session, when I balance the energy out and remove the blocks, he typically feels sensations like electricity moving through his legs.
Afterwards, he reports:
- feeling calmer
- his sleep has dramatically improved
- symptoms from the restless leg syndrome are rare, only happening a couple times a month
Just like maintaining a car or going to a chiropractor, he typically does receive Reiki twice a month, because the blocks do tend to come back after a while.
Here is his testimonial from 2024:
“I had heard about Reiki for a while, but never thought much of it. Honestly, it all seemed pretty “out there” to me. After struggling with restless legs and poor sleep for years, I reached a point where I was ready for an “out there” method. Emma began working with me and I began noticing changes almost immediately, though my sleep data was the real indicator that it was helping.
Before I started receiving Reiki, my watch reported that I had an average sleep score of 33 out of 100, and rarely realized a score above 60. I am amazed to say that, since Emma began helping me, I often see sleep scores of 80-90 and my average sleep duration has increased from 4.15 hours to over 7 hours a night!”
– Tim, Colorado
Increased Clarity and Focus
One client was struggling recently with anxiety, a lack of clarity, and a heavy fatigue.
What Reiki revealed: She had a lot of blocks in her head, heart, and inner authority centers. I helped her to replenish those areas, giving her more confidence in herself. The clouds in her head were removed to help her with focus and clearer thinking. She was going through some life transitions and I used Reiki to release the fears manifesting in her legs/feet, which had made her feel stuck before now.
Afterwards, she reported that:
- She felt immediate relief from anxiety. Weeks later, her anxiety/depression was still often present, but she now feels more confident when it comes up that it will soon pass.
- She has been more productive and focused and less drained
- She has an overall sense of long-term hope and feels less alone in life
- It gave her a new awareness to what can cause energy blocks in her body and what that feels like
- She was able to continue to move forward on her own using the tools that were suggested to further heal after the session

What is Reiki?
You may have gotten this far and been wondering what Reiki even is. Below are some explanations about Reiki, your body’s energetic flow, and how Reiki helps balance it all out.
This is an excerpt from “What is Reiki, Who can Learn it?” on the International Center for Reiki training website: “Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by “laying on hands” and is based on the idea that an unseen “life force energy” flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one’s “life force energy” is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.
Here’s the short answer: this healing method aids in balancing your energy so you can feel more content and stable in life. If you are having trouble with forgiving yourself, letting go of old memories, or just feel like life is sideways right now, Reiki could be beneficial to your healing and getting you back on track.
The Flow of Energy from a Reiki Healer’s Perspective
Now I’ll explain how some energy practitioners (including me) see your energy moving through. Refer to the photo below and think of your body like a series of rivers or waterfalls.
- Energy starts in the top of your head (your crown chakra), and flows down like water through your neck, torso, legs and feet, as well as arms and hands.
- The energy exits your hands and feet.
- If something blocks that flow of energy, it becomes stagnant and can’t flow through the rest of your body. That block could be caused by a painful memory, emotion, stress, or many other factors.
A Reiki healer uses an energetic life force that exits out of their hands. By hovering over different areas of your body, we use this energy to remove those blocks and get your energy flowing again.
Have you ever been to an acupuncturist? They use needles to pinpoint certain energy flow areas and balance your energy. Reiki is similar, but instead of using needles, we work within your chakras and use our hands. There’s a video below that helps explain this even further.
An Example of How Your Energy Gets Clogged
This is something I see very often when working with clients. Refer to the image above.
Say your energy was blocked in your solar plexus, which is the yellow chakra right above your naval. This is your confidence center – how you feel about yourself.
Let’s say your confidence has been low at work lately and that is causing the energy to get blocked up.
Energy is unable to flow past this point, so your
- creativity is stagnant (orange sacral chakra directly below)
- you might feel less stable in your daily life (red root chakra below this)
- you may even be having trouble moving forward with decisions (energy not flowing through your feet)
Using the Reiki healing energy, we would help you let go of some of that resentment and boost your confidence to remove the block (sometimes by bringing up past memories or helping work through the emotion).
This lets energy flow again, thereby:
- bringing back your creativity
- giving you more stability in life
- grounding your feet to make decisions easier
See how it all works together?
Receiving Reiki healing is a great way to balance some things out and help move forward in life. It even kicks up some old emotions and memories so you can get over them easier and become a better version of yourself.
Watch the video for more of an explanation.
Supporting Data
Some studies have been done about the scientific effects of Reiki, but there is still more research to do. This article by Forbes gives a few examples:
“Researchers at Harvard Medical School followed 99 patients at multiple sites to determine the effects of a single Reiki session. The study—a single arm effectiveness study published in 2019 in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine—found statistically significant improvements in anxiety and depression symptoms, as well as pain and nausea.
Additional research suggests Reiki helps with depression and insomnia. A 2012 study in the Indian Journal of Positive Psychology looked at 40 women who suffered from depression and anxiety. Half of the group received a Reiki treatment twice a week for 10 weeks and the other half received no treatment. The women who received Reiki saw significant improvements in both their depression symptoms and sleep quality.”
Additionally, the article states that over 15% of U.S. hospitals offer Reiki to patients as a complement to medical care.
About Emma
I am certified Usui Holy Fire Reiki Master, trained by Mary Fielder from the Reiki Place, certified through the International Center for Reiki Training.
After seeing the profound impact that Reiki has had on my own life, in 2020, I decided to become certified and help others find healing. It’s been amazing to see the transformations that clients have had after receiving Reiki. It really does help them navigate a difficult time of transition, and let go of past memories and patterns of thinking that have been dragging them down. Life starts turning around and they start to feel more confident in who they are and what they can do.
You’ll benefit from my intuitive/clairvoyant skills which give me insight into what might be holding you back and put you on a path to move forward. These abilities will give you new information that can aid in your healing and pinpoint the cause of some of your distress.
Most Reiki sessions offered are long-distance. This allows you to receive the healing while in the comfort of your own home, and from anywhere in the world.
Could your energy be out of balance or blocked?
If you are feeling any of these things for a couple days:
- Unstable
- Anxious
- Depressed
- Low confidence
- Depleted
- Cloudiness or lack of focus
- An extreme emotion that you can’t pinpoint
This could be a cue that that your energy is out of balance, but you may have additional or different symptoms not listed here.
Is it time to find more balance in your life?
If you are ready to find your way back to clarity, inspiration, and stability, Reiki could be beneficial to your healing and getting you back on track.
- Have less chaos in your day-to-day, with a feeling of your feet being firmly planted on the ground.
- Be okay with riding the ebbs and flows of life, not getting knocked off kilter by the smallest things.
- Bring back that excitement for life and the confidence to go out and do what you want to do.
I have witnessed the dramatic impact that Reiki healing can have on someone’s life, and am confident that it can help you, too.
Embarking on a journey of emotional healing can be the best gift you give yourself.

Testimonials

Case Studies with Clients
The following case studies are actual accounts about my clients before, during, and after having a Reiki session.
Concern: Arm/shoulder pain, creative blocks, and feeling worn down.
Blocks: In each session, she had blocks in her arms and shoulders, which made it so energy couldn’t flow through. There were often blocks in her head, which indicated trouble with clarity and some possible depression. Her heart was blocked for a few sessions, but by the end that had cleared up. There was fear lingering in her shoulders/arms, legs/feet in the first couple sessions, but that went away.
What they experienced after: After the sessions, she would sometimes have interesting dreams or memories come up. During the sessions, she would sometimes have messages pop into her head about living life well or she would remember people from her past. She was able to forgive herself in many ways for regrets and start having a new perspective on her life.
Interesting anecdotes: We did 4 sessions over 2 months. I noticed as time went on that her energy was becoming very clean and the blocks/issues she was working through in the beginning were no longer a concern – in fact, they were energetically very strong. She also was feeling much better, more confident, and inspired creatively towards the end of the sessions. Her arm and shoulder pain have been relieved.
*Note: this person was also going through physical therapy and acupuncture. She used Reiki as an additional tool for pain relief.
Concern: Depression, fatigue
Blocks: Main blocks were in her solar plexus, head, inner authority, throat. She has too much responsibility, which was clogging up her head (making her think and stress out too much about others). Her inner authority needed to be revived, helping her to know herself more. It was clear that she is not operating within her own voice or inner guidance and doesn’t trust herself, which was contributing to blocks in her throat, inner authority, heart, and solar plexus (confidence center). I also helped to clear some issues in her root chakra, making her feel more stable.
What they experienced after: She had sensations during the Reiki that felt as though I was grounding her into the Earth – like vines and tree roots were wrapping around and helping her to feel more stable. She also noticed feelings like growth of plants and life-giving sunshine, water, peace. Since then, she has found more inspiration for life, more at peace, and a better perspective on life.
Interesting anecdote: I’ve done a few sessions for her over the years, and one session in particular sticks out. During the pandemic, she was feeling low energy and depressed. I noticed in the Reiki session that her energy was depleted – it looked dim and every chakra needed reviving. I helped clear and brighten her energy, as well as worked to bring hope and stability back. The next day, she told me that she went for a walk outside for the first time in weeks. Her energy and zest for life had returned after that Reiki session.
Concern: Lack of clarity, hard to focus/feeling cloudy, depression/anxiety, fatigue
Blocks: Her head was very blocked so no energy could flow in. Her heart and inner authority areas were blocked as well, and was needing to discover how she wanted to transition into a new career path. The challenge of this transition was causing low confidence and fear of moving forward (which manifested in the legs).
What they experienced after: She felt immediate relief from anxiety and has been more productive and focused. The Reiki provided a sense of long-term hope and helped her to feel less alone in life and less drained. Her anxiety/depression was still there but she felt more hopeful it will pass. It helped bring awareness to what was being blocked in her body, and the resources that I gave her helped to move forward through and observe when things are out of balance.
Interesting anecdote: She’s had a couple sessions so far, in addition to working through a Rosa Joy program. During the second session, there was something significant blocking her head, which was causing a lot of issues with clarity and focus. Once that was removed, she’s felt much more clear-headed.
Concern: feeling like life was chaotic and unstable, also experiencing some nausea and arm pain.
Blocks: Energetically very blocked through the body. The main areas were in the solar plexus (confidence center), sacral chakra (creative center), and root chakra (stability/feeling grounded). It was clear that she’s in a time of transition and has some decisions to make about her current and future career. There was also a block in the neck area, which was causing nausea.
What they experienced after: This person did not tell me she was feeling creatively drained until after we discussed what I noticed. I told her I saw that her creative center was dried up and it seemed like her heart was longing for new creative projects. She confirmed that this was true and that she had lost confidence in herself and work, and needed creative inspiration. Since doing the Reiki, she has found new inspiration and excitement to dive into new creative projects. She also had a lot of relief in her arm the following day. Things felt a bit more stable for her as well.
Interesting anecdote: I’ve done Reiki for her a few times. During our first session, I noticed what appeared to be something angry in her left leg that wouldn’t let go. Afterwards, when I told her, she was shocked that I witnessed this in her leg, since she didn’t tell me anything prior to the session. She explained to me that she’d fallen on ice and banged her left knee a few days before, which had been causing a lot of pain.
Concern: Restless leg syndrome (nearly every night) and not sleeping well.
Blocks: Energy was completely blocked and could not flow through legs and feet. The source comes from a back injury (coming from here and spreading down). Also holds stress in these areas.
What they experienced after: Restless leg issues have gone from every night to maybe 3 times a month during a time of stress. He’s been tracking his sleep patterns on his watch, and the graphs show that his sleep score has vastly improved over the last several months. He typically feels much more relaxed after a session.
Interesting Anecdote: Been treating 2-3 times a month for the last 8 months. Sometimes he experiences sensations of tingling through his legs, or seeing a blue light, in the middle of a Reiki session.
Concern: Cancer in left front leg and back right leg – limping. Low energy, not eating much and sleeping all the time.
Blocks: Pain emanating from legs under elbows and energy not flowing out through her paws – it’s getting stuck and causing circulation issues as well. Once in a while, energy is getting stuck in her stomach area as well, and can’t flow out through her root, which could be causing her to not eat.
What they experienced after: She seems to love the Reiki and purrs through each time. Her appetite increases, she almost instantly is more mobile and has energy to move around and wants to be near us again.
Interesting anecdotes: She’s being treated every other day. I can feel the pain radiating from her front leg and it shows up visually to me as fire. I use Reiki to neutralize the pain and flow the energy through. Releasing the stagnant energy helps increase the circulation as well. It isn’t a cure for the cancer, but is one tool to give her temporary relief from the pain.
FAQ’s about a Reiki Session with Emma
Q: How Do I Prepare for the Session?
Send Emma any concerns (physical or mental) that you are experiencing.
Find a quiet space in your room to lay down. Be sure you are undisturbed for 45 minutes. Turn off your phone notifications/ring tone and any other distractions. Pick out some calming music to listen to during the session (The Insight Timer app has some great 1-hour song tracks). You can light a candle or use essential oil if you prefer.
Q: Do I Need to Do Anything During the Reiki?
After settling in, you get to relax! Don’t worry about doing anything except laying quietly without distractions. Thoughts or sensations may come up. Don’t dwell on them, but do take note of what happens. You may even fall asleep.
Q: What Happens After?
When the session is over, it is helpful to debrief with me over a phone call or virtually for 15 minutes or so. We can talk about what you experienced, as well as what I noticed while I was doing the Reiki for you. During this time, we will discuss next steps you can take along your own journey, such as meditations, books, or activities that may help you with breakthroughs.
Q: What Do I Need to Do the Next Few Days?
You’ll want to drink plenty of water for the next couple days to help flush out the stagnant energy we released during the Reiki. You may have interesting dreams, memories, or revelations surface. Your mood might even be different. This is part of the healing. Let them go.
Overall you should be feeling better – more peaceful, grounded, and clear-headed. If you have a bit of a mood swing show up at first, that’s okay. It will go away. Please reach out to me if you have questions about what’s happening.
