Frequently Asked Questions
What is Reiki, and how does it work?
Reiki is a gentle and non-invasive healing practice that originated in Japan. It involves the channeling of universal life energy through the hands of a practitioner to promote balance and healing in the recipient's body, mind, and spirit. The practitioner acts as a conduit for this energy, allowing it to flow where it is most needed in the recipient's system.
What can I expect during a Reiki session?
During a Reiki session, you will lie down comfortably, fully clothed, on a massage table or sit in a chair if preferred. The practitioner will gently hover their hands over various parts of your body, using their intuition. You may feel warmth, tingling, or a sense of relaxation during the session. It is a peaceful and calming experience, allowing you to enter a deeply relaxed state.
Can Reiki help with specific health conditions?
Reiki is a complementary therapy that can support the body's natural healing abilities. While it is not a substitute for medical treatment, Reiki can be beneficial for a wide range of conditions by promoting relaxation, reducing stress, and creating an overall sense of well-being. Many clients have reported positive outcomes in managing pain, anxiety, insomnia, and fatigue, among others.
Is Reiki suitable for everyone?
Yes, Reiki is safe and suitable for people of all ages, including children and older adults. It can be enjoyed by individuals regardless of their physical condition or spiritual beliefs. Reiki is a gentle energy that works in harmony with the recipient's needs and can be used alongside any other form of treatment or therapy. Per Colorado law, we cannot perform reiki services on children younger than two years of age.
How many Reiki sessions will I need to see results?
The number of sessions needed varies depending on the individual and their specific circumstances. Some clients experience immediate benefits, while others may require multiple sessions to achieve their desired results. The practitioner will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan that best suits your needs, and you can discuss progress and further sessions during your appointments.
Can Reiki be performed remotely?
Absolutely! Reiki can be sent and received remotely. Energy is not bound by time or space, so practitioners can offer distance healing sessions, even when you're not physically present. Remote sessions can be just as effective as in-person sessions, and many clients find them convenient and accessible.
Is Reiki affiliated with any religion?
Reiki is not affiliated with any particular religion. It is a holistic practice that works with universal life energy, which is available to everyone regardless of their spiritual or religious beliefs. People from various faiths and backgrounds can benefit from Reiki's healing energy.
Can I learn Reiki myself?
Absolutely! Reiki is open to anyone who has an interest in learning. There are different levels of Reiki training, starting with Level 1, where you learn self-healing techniques, and progressing to higher levels where you can become a practitioner or even a Reiki master. Attending a Reiki course allows you to develop a deeper understanding of the practice and empowers you to use Reiki for self-care and to help others.
Is Reiki covered by insurance?
Reiki is considered an alternative therapy, and unfortunately it is not covered by insurance.

”Getting a reiki session from Metztli was a truly needed experience. I was a huge skeptic when it came to energy healing but going through this experience was something that made me feel more whole and light, as if i was more grounded. Thank you, Metztli, for doing this and for the love that goes into your sessions.”
