	Welcome! Meet your Reiki healer.
	The healer may ask what prompted you to schedule your healing session, and whether any areas need to be focused on.
	In the treatment room, take off your shoes, watch, and any metal jewelry.
	Depending on the setting, you may recline on a massage table or relax in a chair.
	A pillow can be placed under your neck or knees if you want, and a light blanket may be available.
	The lights are dimmed and soft music may be played to help you relax.
Close your eyes to focus inward, and allow your mind to release all thoughts and fears so you can enjoy the present experience. Most clients prefer to quietly relax, but talking and asking questions is fine.
	The Healing Session The healer will tell you he or she is going to touch you, and will gently touch your ankles to create a conduit for extra energy to leave you and return to the Earth. This is the only touching necessary during a regular Reiki healing session.
	The healer will begin channeling Reiki and focusing the energy into your Chakras.
Reiki effects your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing.
Most clients feel very relaxed as the energy flows through their bodies. Some even fall asleep. Others may feel emotional as old, unresolved problems are reached by the Reiki energy. You may experience a shift in consciousness: this is an important part of healing.
	After your Chakras, and any other areas in need of attention, are filled with energy, extra energy is swept away.
	The healer will fluff your aura and then smooth its edges, so you leave the session in a cocoon of Reiki energy.
	When treatment is complete, the healer may tap your shoulder and quietly tell you he or she is done.
	After the Session When you are ready, get up at your own pace. Most people feel both relaxed and reinvigorated. Some feel simply filled with energy and ready to jump off the table!
	Feel free to discuss the experience with your Reiki healer. Did you feel the energy as heat or tingling? Did the healer notice your back problems or pregnancy?
Based on the energy levels the healer detected during the session, he or she may recommend that you schedule future sessions to maintain wellness. You are also encouraged to ask about distance healing.
	For at least 3 days following the Reiki session, drink eight glasses of pure water a day to flush out any toxins the Reiki may have released.
Reiki treatment provides your body with extra energy to heal itself faster. Healing at this accelerated rate may cause some initial discomfort following your session, just as a cut may itch as it heals. In the case of dis-ease, you may wish to examine your lifestyle and make positive, healthful modification.
	When your body has used up the Reiki energy, schedule another Reiki session to maintain your wellbeing. Chicago Healing Studio thanks the beautiful Laura Schuster for her patience and hard work playing the role of client!
