FAQs

> Our FAQs will help you to answer any questions you may have.

What does a Reiki treatment feel like?

Reiki healing is generally deeply soothing and relaxing. You might feel energy moving through your body, and some clients feel warmth or tingling sensations. Many clients also fall asleep! When you are in a deep state of relaxation (such as when you’re asleep), the body heals faster, so it is actually a great thing if this happens!

 

What should I expect in my Initial Reiki healing?

Your Initial Reiki Healing is 75 minutes, to allow time for your Reiki practitioner to explain what Reiki is, how it works, and what to expect both during and after your Reiki session.
You will then be asked to lie down fully clothed on the Reiki table. Your Reiki healer will cover you with a blanket, and place an eye mask over your eyes. There will be relaxing music playing in the background.
Your Reiki practitioner will then start to channel Reiki energy through them to you, by placing their hands either on or hovering just above your body.
At the end of the session you will have a debrief, where you can share anything that you felt during the session. Your Reiki practitioner will also give you insight into what they felt during your session, and give you some guidance on where to go from here.

 

What is the difference between a Reiki + Coach session and a Reiki Healing?

Reiki & Coach sessions are more in-depth, and allow you the chance to dive into your limiting beliefs, uncover what might be holding you back in various areas of your life, and start to move forward with more ease and confidence within in yourself.
After taking you through your coaching session, Casey will then give a full Reiki healing. Casey is a Reiki Master, life coach, and an intuitive psychic. If you wish, she will often share messages and insights that come through during your Reiki healing. If you would prefer not to receive any messages, that is totally fine too.
During a pure Reiki Healing treatment, there is no coaching. You will simply experience a full body Reiki healing, amplified by the use of crystals. Both Reiki healing and Reiki & Coach sessions are calming, soothing and healing, and you will walk out of your session feeling lighter, more calm and clear in your mind and body.

 

Is Reiki ok for pregnant women?

Absolutely. Reiki can do no harm, it can only assist your body to heal.

 

Are there any side effects of a Reiki Healing?

You may feel deeply relaxed and calm after a Reiki healing, or even a little tired while your body processes the healing. If you are going through an emotional crisis, or have underlying blockages or other issues, Reiki can cause those things that might be bubbling under the surface to come up so they can clear and heal. It is a good idea to drink lots of water before and after any energy healing, and to rest awhile after a session if possible.

 

How often can I have Reiki?

Ideally you would have Reiki healings about a week apart to allow your body to process and absorb the benefits of each session.

 

Where are you located?

We are located in Elwood, VIC 3184 (the exact address will be provided upon booking).

 

What does the Infrared crystal amethyst bed feel like?

Far infrared is deeply penetrating and very comforting. Clients often experience a rapid, comforting, nurturing, deeply warming and relaxing sensation, which promotes relief from muscle tension, joint stiffness, and pain relief. In addition, this infrared mat is completely filled with first class amethyst crystals. Amethyst crystals are a master healing stone, which also amplify energy. Combined with the power of a Reiki energy healing treatment, you will feel energised, relaxed and restored after your session.

 

What are the benefits to the Infrared Bed?

Infra-red means “below-red” just like ultraviolet (UV) means “above-violet.” These two parts of the spectrum, though they are both invisible, have very different effects on the body. Ultraviolet (UV) light has been associated with many health risks whether it is from laying out in the sun too much or from tanning salons. Infrared light is the exact opposite end of the light spectrum and is associated with many positive and healthful effects.

 

Can I purchase an Infrared Bed for myself for home use?

Yes, absolutely! I can personally recommend the Infrared crystal amethyst mat, and Enlighten Therapies offer not only the massage table bed size, but also various smaller sizes for home use. When you purchase a product, please let Enlighten Therapies you are a referral from Melbourne Reiki and Wellness (Casey)! You can find out more, and order products online here.

 

Do you do Distant Reiki healing?

YES, we do offer Distant Reiki healings sessions! These are great if you live far away, or you cannot travel for some reason. They are also great if you are unwell, and looking for a treatment you can receive from home. Distant Reiki healings are just as powerful distantly as in person. You can book in for a Distant Reiki healing here.

 

How does Distant Reiki healing work?

You will connect with Casey online via teleconference first. Casey will explain how the Distant Reiki session will run and what to expect. She will also check in with you and spend a couple of minutes asking you how you are, and if you would like to focus on anything in particular during your Distant Reiki session.
You will then lie down comfortably on your couch or bed. You will be emailed a music playlist on Spotify prior to the session, and you might like to play this music (or your own) during your Distant Reiki healing. As you lie down and relax, your Reiki healer will send you Reiki energy via Distance Reiki healing. Energy is not bound by time or space, which is why Reiki energy can be sent to anyone, anywhere, at any time.
At the end of the session, you will reconnect with Casey via teleconference again to debrief your session. You will be given the opportunity to share what you felt, and she will give you insight into what came up through your healing, and where to go from here.
Distant Reiki and Reiki in-person work exactly the same way, with the exception of human touch or contact. You can still experience the same sensations distantly as you would in person.

 

Are you a medium? Can you see or talk to spirits?

Reiki healing and Reiki + Coaching  sessions are based on healing or rebalancing your mind and body through Reiki energy. Casey will often share what she felt intuitively during your Reiki session, but they are not specifically mediumship or psychic readings.
However, Casey can see and talk to Spirits, and you can request for her to share any psychic or spiritual downloads, insights and messages with you at the end of the session if you wish.

 

Do you offer Reiki House Clearings or Reiki to clear your home?

Yes we do! Reiki House Clearings are a great way to clear your home, workplace, clinic, or any other space of any negative energy, and bring in more vibrant, positive energy. You can read more about our Reiki House Clearing / Blessings here

What should I expect during a Reiki Level 1 Course?

Reiki Level 1 is an introductory course to Reiki energy and Reiki healing. This weekend course run over Saturday and Sunday will give you insight into how energy works, the background of Reiki and our lineage, as well as attune you to Reiki energy itself. You will learn Reiki meditations, how to Reiki others, as well as how to Reiki yourself. You’ll also meet other like-minded people, and have the opportunity to connect and practice Reiki on each other in a supportive environment. After Reiki Level 1, you will be able to practice Reiki on yourself, and your friends and family.

 

What happens after a Reiki Course?

You will receive a 21-day e-course to support you through integration. As your body adjusts to the frequency of Reiki, you may find you experience some shifts in your mind and body. To support and help you through these adjustments, you will receive an email every day for 21 days, with exercises and journal prompts to guide you. You can also email me and ask questions at any time.

 

What is the difference between Reiki Level 1 and Reiki Level 2?

Reiki Level 1 is the initial introduction to Reiki, and in Reiki Level 2, you will dive deeper into your Reiki practice. You will learn 3 sacred symbols to use in your Reiki practice, as well as learn more advanced Reiki meditations. You’ll learn how to send Reiki distantly and online, as well as how to use Reiki to heal and clear past and current situations. There are two Reiki Level 2 attunements, as well as Reiju, a spiritual blessing. There is also ample opportunity to practice hands-on Reiki in different ways. After you have completed Reiki Level 2, you will be able to practice Reiki professionally if you wish. You will also receive a 21-day e-course after Reiki Level 2 to assist with integration.

 

How long after Reiki Level 1 can I do Reiki Level 2?

All my Reiki Courses are accredited with the ARC (Australian Reiki Connection*), and as per their guidelines, there must be a minimum of 3 weeks between Reiki Level 1 and Reiki Level 2.The purpose of this is to allow plenty of time for your body to integrate and get used to the frequency of Reiki, as well as allow time for any shifts and adjustments to occur. There is also plenty of time to practice Reiki on yourself and your friends and family too, before completing the next level of Reiki.

 

What can I expect during Reiki Level 3?

Reiki Level 3 ‘Reiki Master Practitioner’ is now a 1-day course. You will receive and be attuned to the Reiki Master symbol, and learn different ways to practice Reiki with all the Reiki symbols. You’ll learn how to manifest with Reiki, and we will go through how to practice Reiki professionally in more depth. There will also be plenty of hands-on practice, and time for questions and discussion. You will also receive a 21-day e-course for the following 3 weeks to support you through integration.

 

What is the difference between Reiki Master Practitioner and Reiki Mastership?

Reiki Master Practitioner (Reiki Level 3a) is a 1-day course. This is meant as a bridging course to Reiki Mastership. Reiki Mastership (Reiki Master Teacher) is a 12 month mentorship with Casey. You will spend 1:1 sessions with Casey over the course of 12 months, where you will receive two new Reiki symbols, learn how to attune others to Reiki, and how to run your own Reiki workshops. You will learn how to hold space, learn how to give Reiju (spiritual blessings), and be supported in writing your own Reiki manuals. Reiki Mastership can only be taken 12 months after Reiki Level 2, so Reiki Master Practitioner (Reiki 3a) is the bridge in between to keep your Reiki practice going, and allow you to continue to connect deeply with Reiki. Reiki Level 3a can be undertaken 6 months after Reiki Level 2.

 

What is integration?

After you have received a Reiki attunement, you will go through an integration period. Usually after a Reiki healing treatment, it takes around 2-3 days for Reiki to process through your body. After a Reiki attunement, it can take up to 3 weeks. During integration, you might notice shifts in your mindset and how you see yourself and the world around you. You might notice emotional shifts, or emotions bubbling to the surface. It’s also common to experience physical shifts in digestion, possible headaches, changes in sleep, and different food cravings. In addition, you might notice your intuition opens up, and you might have spiritual, psychic or energetic experiences that you haven’t had before. All of these changes and shifts are normal and usually settle down within the 3 week period. It’s important to drink plenty of water, eat nourishing food, and get lots of rest. I’m also available if you have questions or need support during this time.

 

What is a Reiki attunement?

A Reiki attunement is a sacred initiation process whereby a Reiki Master Teacher will initiate and attune a Reiki student to Reiki energy. This is done through a specific process where the Reiki student will sit with their eyes closed, and the Reiki Master will open up the students energy channels, and attune or align them with Reiki energy. It’s a beautiful process, and students can experience a range of shifts, emotions, visions, and more. It is advisable to drink plenty of water and eat nourishing foods during a Reiki Course to support your body through these processes.

 

What is Usui Reiki?

Usui Reiki was founded by Mikau Usui, a Japanese monk in 1922. This form of Reiki is the most common and widely known form of Reiki. Reiki is also known as universal energy, or even unconditional love. It’s a powerful form of energy that is channelled through a Reiki practitioner to client through hands on touch, or even hands off distant healing. Read more here

 

What is Seichim Reiki / Sekhem Reiki?

Seichim Reiki or Sekhem Reiki is an Egyptian form of Reiki, rediscovered by Patrick Zeigler in 1980. Seichim (saysheem) comes from the Egyptian word Sekhem, translated to ‘The Power of Powers’. This Reiki is ancient and sacred, and is an advanced form of hands on healing that includes sounds and symbols. Seichim is a multidimensional light energy, and has links to Goddess Sekhmet, and Goddess Kuan Yin.

 

What is the difference between Usui Reiki and Seichim Reiki?

Usui Reiki and Seichim Reiki are different energetic frequencies. It is said that where Usui Reiki leaves off, Seichim takes over. Seichim is another dimension of the Reiki system. Usui Reiki is considered masculine, while Seichim is considered the embodiment of the feminine. Both together can work to unify the masculine and feminine to balance and harmonise the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual bodies. Seichim is unifying and strengthening, reminding us that we are all one, and ALL LOVE.

 

When can I learn Seichim Reiki?

Seichim Reiki is stronger and more powerful, therefore you must have completed Usui Reiki Level 2 before doing Seichim Reiki Level 1 (prerequisites).

 

What can I expect during Seichim Reiki Level 1 Course?

Seichim Reiki Level 1 is undertaken over a weekend Saturday and Sunday. You will be attuned to Seichim Reiki, and be gifted 6x sacred Seichim Reiki symbols. You’ll learn how to use these symbols and the energy behind them, and there will be plenty of meditation and hands-on Reiki practice. You’ll also learn more about the masculine and feminine energies, how to cut cords and ties, and processes for forgiveness and atonement. You’ll also receive a 21-day e-course afterwards to support you through your practice and integration.

 

How do I choose the right Reiki Teacher to learn from?

Trust your intuition with whom you feel drawn to! I would also encourage you to book in for a Reiki healing with the person you are considering learning Reiki from. That way you will get a sense of their energy, their style, and whether you click with that person. If you would like to book in for a Reiki Healing or Reiki + Coaching session with me, you can do so online here. If you’d like to read more about Reiki Level 1, click here. If you have any further questions about my courses, feel free to contact me here.

 

How do I find people to practice Reiki on?

The best person to practice Reiki on first, is yourself! Regular or daily self-Reiki practice is important for you to understand your own energy, how Reiki works, and feel the difference within yourself of how Reiki can help you. You can also ask your family and friends if you can practice Reiki on them, even if it’s a simple 10 minute Reiki practice. You can also practice on your plants, your house, your crystals, and literally anything else. I would also encourage you to come along to our Reiki Healer Community Circles. These are great opportunities to practice Reiki on other people, ask questions, and exchange details with other like-minded people with whom you can potentially do Reiki swaps with too!

 

Do I have to become a member of the Australian Reiki Connection?

The ARC offer two types of memberships – a non professional membership (for those who are not practicing Reiki professionally) and a professional membership (for those who are practicing Reiki professionally). It’s up to you if you would like to become a member or not! All my Usui Reiki Courses are accredited with the ARC and are in line with our lineage (Usui Shiki Ryoho).

What is a Reiki Practitioner Certification?

A Reiki Practitioner Certification means that you can practice Reiki on yourself and others. There are three levels to Reiki training in Melbourne, including Reiki Level 1 ‘Shoden’, Reiki Level 2 ‘Okuden’, and Reiki Level 3 ‘Shinpiden’. At Melbourne Reiki & Wellness, Reiki Level 3 has been broken down into two levels: Reiki Level 3a ‘Master Practitioner’ and 3b ‘Reiki Mastership’.

You will need to complete at least Reiki Level 2 to be able to practice professionally on others, as well as learn and practice Distant Reiki.

 

Do I need to have prior experience?

You don’t need any prior experience to book into Reiki Level 1. However, you will need to have completed Reiki Level 1 to then book in for Reiki Level 2. You will need to have completed both Reiki 1 and 2 to book in for Reiki Level 3a. All these 3 levels are prerequisites for Reiki Mastership.

At each level you will be given a Reiki Certification, and you will need to provide this in order to book in for the higher levels (especially if you have completed you Reiki Level 1 with someone else). This ensures the Reiki lineage is protected. Additionally, our Reiki Courses at Melbourne Reiki & Wellness have been approved by the Australian Reiki Connection (and must be undertaken in person only). Please note that Reiki Courses online are NOT approved by the Australian Reiki Connection.
