Reiki for Kids &Teenagers
Is your kid or teen overwhelmed, anxious, or struggling to cope with the pressure of school or everyday life?
Reiki sessions offer a gentle space for young people to slow down as Reiki works gently with the body’s own energy to encourage deep relaxation and natural healing.

Why Reiki?
Many kids and teens are carrying a lot and navigate big life transitions between school, exams and friendships.
Between social media and figuring out who they are and what they want to do they can feel anxious, overwhelmed and under pressure.
They can often push aside their own well-being as they have so many other things going through their minds.
Reiki offers a gentle pause from all the noise, a dedicated hour that’s entirely their with no demands.
After the session we can run through some simple self help tools that they can use at home or school.
With every session I also include a little moment of healing for you the parent, as often when you are supported everyone else benefits too.

How Reiki can help kids & teens:
Reiki is a non-invasive practice focused on promoting balance and harmony of the body and mind.
Reiki encourages your body’s own energy to flow smoothly and freely, as we function best when our energy and body is balanced and centered.
This can lead to feelings of deep relaxation, reduced stress, and an overall sense of well-being.
During a Reiki session the practitioner uses light touch or holds their hands near you to facilitate relaxation and energy balance.
The practitioner is like a gentle guide allowing healing energy to be directed to where it’s needed and helps the natural flow of energy.
What happens during a Reiki session?
-
Before the session we have a brief chat to see where the client is at but there is no pressure for them to talk or open up. All they have to do is show up.
-
After an explanation of the session and an opportunity to ask any questions, the client will lie fully clothe on the Reiki table. There is no pressure to remain fully still or to keep their eyes closed. I work with the teenager to make sure they are comfortable.
-
Once the client is settled, I will use calming music and gentle hands-on and hands-off placements starting from the head down to the feet. The only requirement during the session is to try to relax and receive the healing energy without effort.
-
During the session the client may feel warmth, tingling or may feel nothing at all. There is no single way to experience Reiki.
With every teen session I also offer a little moment of healing for the parent (with consent)- as parents can find it a trying time just like the teen and when parents are supported everyone else benefits too.
