What to expect during a Ear Acupuncture Treatment

Ear Acupuncture is a very powerful yet subtle treatment. It can help with many different conditions both physical and emotional.

Most clients report feeling relaxed after treatment as well as grounded, the mind is quieter, less busy then prior to treatment. Ear Acupuncture can also effect the clients breathing allowing deeper breathing which ultimately allows a depper level of relaxation. Some clients say they feel scatty and giddy after a session. It effects different people in different ways but the above is mainly what my clients have reported back to me.

Prior to starting the treatment I discuss the condition or particular issue the client wants the treatment for with them. Generally 5-6 needles are then placed in each of the patients ears. Mostly this isn't painful however if there is a lot of blocked energy in a particular point it may hurt a little bit, but not for very long. Its not any where near as painful as having your ear pierced! I encourage clients to breathe in and out and on their out breath I place the needle in to their ear. Putting needles in the ears is very quick and takes about 5 minutes.

I often give clients a cup of detox tea during a treatment and I encourage qi gong which is very similar to meditation to help the client to really focus in wards and relax in a quiet space.

The session usually lasts for about 45 minutes, if the treatment is done in a group session the client will sit quietly with others in an upright position in a chair.
If the session is a one to one session ( By that I mean me the practitioner with one client) I put the client on a massage table on their back and leave them to relax for the same amount of time.

Before the end of the session the needles are removed and 1-2 magnets are taped on to ceratin pressure points. The magnets help to keep stimulating particular points which are useful in treating the client, for their particular condition they are having the sessions for. The magnets genearlly stay on for about a week.

What To Expect During Indian Head Massage Treatment

This is a wonderful treat of a treatment, the massage works on the top three chakras which are crown, brow and throat. The actual treatment works on the top of the back, the arms, the neck, the head and the face. Its a great teatment for stress because of the body area it covers. Lots of different types of massage movement are used throughout the treatment making it varied and different to other types of massage.

Oil can be used in the hair if the client wants this, oil is very good for healthy hair and a healthy scalp.

5 minutes of Reiki take place towards the end of the treatment to help blance the top three chakra's. Both the physical massage movement and the Reiki balancing can leave the client feeling in a very relaxed/blissful state. Having a head rub really encourages this blissful feeling too.

This is the perfect treatment if you want to relax, go into yourself and let go of some of the stresses from your daily life.

What To Expect During A Reiki Treatment.

Reiki:
During a reiki session most clients feel really relaxed and may even fall asleep during the treatment. Falling asleep is a great way to receive Reiki, if we are asleep our conscious mind is switched off allowing our subconscious to really take in the positive Reiki energy and take it to the area in the aura where it is needed by the client.

Some clients report seeing vibrent colours during the treatment usually the colours that are seen are one or more of the colour of the chakra's. In my experience even clients that don't know what the chakra colours are will see some of these colours.

Some of my clients have cried during treatments, some report old memories coming back to them things they may have forgotten all about.

Sometimes if there is blocked energy it is possible for a body spasm to occur or eyes to flicker I've seen this happen myself with clients. I myself experienced my arm flying backwards out of my control when I had my first Reiki treatment.

Basically each individual experiences Reiki very differently, on the whole though its a deeply relaxing, gentle experience which works on different levels of the aura to help release blocked energy and provide some healing for us all.
