Reiki Hand Positions
In response to a recent comment.
Thank you.
You are right in that Reiki can be just as effective without actual physical contact between the client and practitioner. I obtained my training through the International Center for Reiki Training. Their instruction indicated that light touch or positioning the hands just above the body, as stated on my website and blog, is equally effective. The Reiki energy itself flows where it is needed.
Reiki practitioners should always be respectful of a clients privacy and their wishes and it is recommended that they always ask a client if they are sensitive to touch before beginning any treatment session. If they are, the practitioner may choose to place their hands just above the body in the traditional positions to conduct the session. This is certainly the case touching any private area and the practitioner may place their hands well above or around these areas for a full treatment.
Please do visit the International Center for Reiki Training at www.reiki.org for additional information regarding formal Reiki practitioner training and frequently asked questions.
