 | Consider whether you are more comfortable with a man or a woman ... with
someone who works from home or a health centre. |
 | Ask what approach the Reiki practitioner takes (hands on or off the body,
chanting or silence) and decide whether you are comfortable with that
approach. |
 | Reiki treatments are carried out with the client fully clothed. You
may want to ask for a blanket, though because a slight drop in body
temperature is common when healing is occurring. |
 | If your Reiki treatment evokes an emotional response, do not suppress it.
Most practitioners realize that a person may be moved to tears during a
session. |
 | Accept that it is perfectly normal to remember past traumas, to see images
from your life, or to simply become deeply relaxed. |
 | Go slowly when your session is finished. Take some time to integrate
the therapy. |
 | Drink plenty of water to help your body with any detoxification that may
occur and to help hold the treatment. |
