5 Tips to Restore Balanced Harmony

Creating a balance of the body, mind, and spirit can be difficult if you are not mindfully aware of what is going on around you, the people who influence your energy field, and the way in which you deal with negativity as it arises.

Think about the different aspects of your life- home, work, family, and other relationships. From time-to-time have you found yourself in a rut? Do you ever feel like you are in a downward cycle? No matter how hard you try, you can’t pull yourself out of it?   

The energy we carry with us combines our past, our dominant thoughts, and our perception of the world around us. As you navigate your way through the world, remember that you have the power to change your personal energy and the energy in the space around you. (Hello, and welcome smudging!)

3 Ways Reiki Can Improve Your Massage

You probably know that massage loosens muscles, increases blood flow through the body, and has a wealth of other benefits to strengthen your general well-being. But did you know that when coupled with Reiki, a Japanese healing art, a great massage becomes extraordinary? Yep, that’s right. Reiki adds a little zing to your massage routine leaving you feeling positive, healthy, peaceful, and energized. Where do I sign up, right?

First Things First. What Is Reiki?
Reiki is a practice that promotes physical, emotional, and mental wellness. It is a non-invasive therapy that is used to restore balance to the body’s energy level while also increasing its self-healing ability.

What Happens During a Reiki Session?
Energy flows from the massage therapist’s hands to your body. The therapist will place their hands near you in a variety of positions and places for about 3-10 minutes. As the therapist goes over you, she will help to free unbalanced energy flow within your body.

Eyes forward because we’re about to blow the top off your experience of massage with just three ways that Reiki will make your next session the best yet.

1. A Deeper Mind-Body Experience
During a Reiki massage, both the client and therapist are focused on specific areas of the body that hold tension so it can be released. You will be invited to take deep, slow breaths and allow your mind to not only connect with your body but also to eventually let go and relax, allowing your mind to drift. With the help of your massage therapist, you will be able to relax and heal from within.

2. More Evident Emotional and Mental Changes
After a Reiki session, many people state that they feel the warmth of their therapist’s hands and that allows their body to feel a gentle release and ease. As they succumb to the relaxation of Reiki, they noticeably feel relief from stress and anxiety and are met with peace. This feeling is said to last longer after a massage session that incorporates Reiki than a normal session.

3. Muscular Tension and Pain Relief
Reiki is sometimes used as alternative medicine for people suffering from tension, illnesses, various diseases, and chronic pain. Reiki can focus on body pain or discomfort, yielding similar results, without the use of deep pressure or invasive techniques. As Reiki helps to harmonize the body, physical issues dissipate.

Additional Known Benefits of Reiki Include:
-lower heart rate;
-strengthened immune system; and
-lower blood pressure.

The beautiful takeaway of a Reiki massage is the effects of balancing energy, releasing tension, and experiencing deep relaxation. If you would like to schedule a Reiki massage or to learn more about it, contact us today!
