During a Reiki session, you may experience a wide range of physical sensations, or perhaps none at all. Every individual is unique, and your experience can vary from one session to the next.
Through my practice, I have documented 26 distinct sensations reported by clients. While some overlap, they represent the diverse ways our bodies process and respond to the relaxation response.
Click on each of the list below for more information around each sensation and the potential biological or energetic reasons why our bodies react the way they do. This is an ongoing research project, so check back often as I continue to add new insights.
