We want you to feel your best after every session. It is important to drink plenty of water, get plenty of sunshine outdoors, and eat light and healthy. Treat yourself to juices, soups, warm sea or Epsom salt baths, steam baths, or saunas. Overall, give your body the nourishment it needs to do the job of healing it knows how to.
In some cases, clients may have seemingly undesirable such as flu-like symptoms, headaches, joint and muscle pain, body aches, sore throat, general malaise, sweating, chills, nausea, itch, extremely sleepy, and in some cases diarrhea. In pronounced cases, this is called the Herxheimer Reaction. This reaction occurs because the Reiki treatment has activated your body's natural healing processes. Much like a deep tissue massage, dry needling, or acupuncture, toxins are released. As a result, it should be seen as a positive sign of the effectiveness of the treatment. If this happens, we recommend that you drink plenty of water and get plenty of rest after your session. This will help to flush toxins from your body and aid in your body's natural healing process. In addition, please contact your practitioner so they can make note of it and give you recommendations specialized to your session.
Discontinue reiki sessions for a day or two to allow the energy to fully settle. We are committed to your well-being and look forward to helping you on your healing journey.
