My mission is to guide people to discover the potential of their own self-healing system.

Reiki is a very simple therapy carried out by placing the hands, with the aim of stimulating the natural process of self-healing and promoting recovery at every level. The original name used to express the concept of Reiki was SHIN SHIN KAIZEN USUI REIKI RYOHO, that is, Usui's Reiki therapy for the improvement of body and mind. Founded and developed by Mikao Usui in 1922, it is a form of treatment that can be used safely in any state or condition.

There are many styles of Reiki. What sets Jikiden Reiki apart are the original Japanese teachings and techniques, which keep a simple, substantial style firmly rooted in the practical side of the technique. Sessions are fully personalised, and this makes them more effective. Jikiden Reiki has no Western influence and can be considered Reiki in its most complete and authentic Japanese form. Jikiden means "directly handed down": it is passed on and practised exactly as it was in the 1920s by its founder and his students. One of the most promising, Dr Chujiro Hayashi, set up a Reiki centre in Tokyo and taught the practice to many people. Among them was a very young Chiyoko Yamaguchi. Chiyoko Yamaguchi practised Reiki all her life, helping a great many people: 65 years of daily experience. In the last years of her life, she and her son Tadao decided to found the official Jikiden Reiki Institute and to teach people in Japan and the rest of the world what she had learned directly from Dr Hayashi in the 1930s.

Jikiden Reiki is known for its simplicity and its focus on physical healing, while Western Usui Reiki offers a fuller system of techniques and symbols aimed at spiritual growth and empowerment. Practitioners can benefit from both forms or from one of the two, depending on their needs and interests.

Treatments are absolutely safe. I simply place my hands on the receiver, who stays fully clothed, focusing the energy on the areas where it is most needed. Reiki supports the natural mechanism of self-healing and promotes deep relaxation. I do not make diagnoses. If there are worrying symptoms, it is advisable to see a doctor. I do not prescribe anything and I do not change any therapy you are following.

The experience of Reiki is unique for everyone. Most people find it enormously relaxing and report a deep sense of well-being. This feeling of inner calm often lasts long after the session has ended. Reiki is usually felt as a gentle, calming experience, and many people feel full of energy after a session.

A Reiki session can last from 45 to 90 minutes. Reiki therapy is a healing process: a course of treatments is usually recommended to support deeper healing. The first step is to try a session.

Reiki can give emotional support to face life's challenges better. It promotes greater balance in the body and creates a feeling of being centred. It offers a sense of calm and peace, useful in times of great stress or when facing long-term health challenges. People turn to Reiki in a wide variety of situations. The most common: when they need to relax, to help sleep, and to handle the difficulties of life and work more easily. In times of great emotional stress Reiki is particularly beneficial, as in periods of grief and for those going through emotional trauma. It is also believed to help the body's natural ability to heal when challenges arise. Many people describe life as simply "easier to manage" when they receive Reiki.

Yes, you can receive Reiki through a distance treatment if you cannot be present in person.

Yes, there is a specific kind of treatment that can be used to help people with addictions such as smoking, alcohol or eating too much sugar. This method can also help those who suffer from anxiety or panic attacks, or who want to overcome a habit: for example when a person cannot stop being overly critical, stubborn or impatient, or when extreme anger comes up in certain circumstances. The treatment helps calm the problem, but it also brings to light what is causing it. Physical Reiki, together with the psychological method, helps the person face and let go of what causes the problem.
