Reiki didn’t work!

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

As you’ve seen, I often post the very positive reviews that I receive from clients.

But have I posted any of the negative feedback? Not until today.

One client came with a strained lower back and butt, so painful that it was hard for him to sit down. His friend had had success with reiki for two physical issues, so he was convinced to come try it. But a few days after the treatment when I asked if the treatment helped, he replied:

‘No, mate. No difference whatsoever’.

Another client has had real problems with energy lately, and we were hoping that a reiki treatment might give him a lift. But a few days after the treatment, he said:

‘I’m still pretty low on energy.  Meh.’

I think in November of last year, a client came for some long-term issues of anxiety but reported after:

‘Unfortunately, I really don’t feel a difference.’

And before that, someone who was fighting flu-like symptoms and some sore body parts:

‘ Unfortunately I feel no better or worse than on Thursday. Everything remains about the same without going anywhere.’

I think most marketers would think it’s a bad idea to post one’s negative reviews, but I think it’s useful to present a balance to the positive reviews.

There are many reasons why a reiki treatment might not help someone. It might not be the right kind of treatment for them. It might help them but in ways too subtle to notice.

The particular issue may need more help than one treatment can give. For example, for physical issues like a bad back or a muscle sprain, I’d recommend going to a good physiotherapist, for example, the great team at Active Physiotherapy in Newtown. For long-term mental health and well-being issues, I’ve been recommending lately for people to check out the Indigo Project. For serious health issues, I’d want to make sure that clients are seeing their doctors, and using reiki to complement other medicine, treatments and therapy.

I also think that clients have more success when their intentions are broad (wanting to feel more relaxed or calm, or to develop their spirituality) rather than specific (to fix a cold, to get pregnant). Then again, some clients have come in to address specific emotional issues, and have come away with resolution and resolve.

I’m lucky and hear back from probably over half of my clients. Of those who don’t write in, I’m not sure whether some of them might have not been happy with the resuts, or whether they are too busy to reply (or my followup email goes to their spam). All of these are possible and likely options.

In any case, my message for you is that your reiki treatment may not work. But then again, maybe it will!

Reiki fixes knees!

The first time that one of my reiki treatments fixed a knee problem was for a client who came in to try reiki in general, to see what would happen, and not for anything specific. She certainly hadn’t planned to fix her knee, which she’d hurt only a day or two before at a picnic with friends. Still, she was hobbling a bit when she arrived.

As soon as the treatment finished, she got off the table and said, excitedly, ‘my knee feels better’ and started to walk quickly back and forth in the room, too quickly, I thought! Slow down, we don’t want to push our luck!

Another client, I only heard about four months after the treatment, when she sent her partner for a session. He told me that reiki had, surprisingly, fixed a long-term knee issue. She wrote to me that:

‘I was really surprised. I had a bad knee before I got the reiki done and when you went over my knees, I felt lots of energy and sad emotions which then continued for the rest of the session. I noticed though the next day in work, my knees weren’t sore anymore and then in yoga I could do poses that I used to not be able to do. It’s crazy how it just was fixed, I had been to an osteopath about it and he said my hips are out of line and I had tight hamstrings and it was affecting my knee. So the pain was a physical thing so I’m baffled that the reiki cured it but very happy about it!’

And then another client wrote just recently, three weeks after her treatment:

‘One really interesting thing to note is that I used to have recurring pain in my right knee during to a horse riding incident, which would make itself known throughout the day and was considerably worse in winter. The reason for this pain, such as maybe a torn ligament or something, never really came up in any x-rays or ultrasounds but since this reiki treatment, this pain has completely disappeared! I noticed the day after the treatment that there was no trace of any pain whatsoever. However, I was curious to see how long it would last and whether the pain would come back, but it’s now been over 3 weeks and the pain has completely gone. I have no doubt in my mind that this healing was because of reiki. It was pretty astonishing! Before reiki, I couldn’t do simple activities such as pick something up from the ground or sit cross-legged without feeling the pain in my right knee and now I don’t even have to think twice about this! Thank you so much!’

My conclusion: reiki can fix knee problems! It’s not something that could be guaranteed, but maybe it’s worth a try. Thanks to my clients for letting me use their words above.

Come From Away

When I was in New York City in May I saw an amazing musical, about a small town, Gander, in Newfoundland, that unexpectedly ends up hosting thousands of people from planes diverted from 9/11. The title of the musical refers to what Islanders refer to anyone who is not from there: they’ve ‘come from away’.

I was thinking about this because of the amazing international clientele I’ve had at Reiki Surry Hills. It’s been like this from the beginning but seems to be a bit more pronounced lately. I’ve also noticed that folks from outside of Australia are more like to have studied reiki themselves or have friends or relatives that have done reiki, and they’ve had treatments. Australians are more likely to never had a treatment before. This tells me that reiki is more known outside of this country.

In any case, lately, I’ve had clients from Ireland, India, England, Serbia, France, Spain, Finland, the USA, and Canada. While I’ve had clients passing through Sydney from Hong Kong, Texas, Germany and Cairns, mostly all of my clients are based in Sydney, and have come to live here from all over the world (and all over Australia), just as I’ve come here from Canada.

This gives me a warm and fuzzy feeling, since I like a city where people come from all over, and it’s a nice gift from reiki to be able to meet some of them and marvel at how complex and mobile the world is and how did we end up here when we came from away.

Away: 9 to 23 August 2017

If you’ve come for a treatment, you’ll recognise this as the place where we have a little chat before and after the session.

Heads up! Just a warning that I’ll be away from Sydney from 9 to 23 August.

So, if you’d like to come in before then, get in contact!

Or you can book in advance for when I come back too!

Not that kind of reiki!

As I’ve been explaining to clients, there are a lot of different kinds of reiki out there. Students of Mikao Usui, the founder of the Reiki system, added their own variations of reiki to their teaching, and then from there, with many generations of new students, some reiki practitioners went on to found their own methods and styles of reiki.

Still other practitioners combine what they’ve learned about reiki with other practices or skills: from massage to crystal healing and often clairvoyance and psychic advice. Reiki, particularly in the United States, became associated with New Age practices (and subsequently made fun of in popular media: there were jokes about reiki in Magic Mike 2!). People often combine reiki with reference to the Indian belief in chakras, the seven centres of spiritual power in the human body.

My teacher, Frans Stiene, and the International House of Reiki, aim at focusing on reiki as it was practised and taught by the founder, Usui, to get back to its purest form.

And I’ve followed Frans’s lead…

Lately, different clients have told me about other reiki treatments they’ve had. During one, a client had to remove his shirt, and had crystals laid on him. During another treatment, the reiki practitioner talked during the whole treatment. What I hear often is reiki practitioners who give messages (psychic or spiritual) or diagnoses (saying what part of the body they think is blocked, or if there are imbalances).

So, I thought it might be useful to say: I don’t do that.

  • When you come to the session, you remain fully clothed (except for your shoes) and if it’s cold, or you feel more comfortable, I can cover you with a blanket.
  • If you really have the need to speak during the treatment, then that’s fine (though I think I’ve only had one client talk a bit during a treatment out of nearly 400 treatments), but I will remain quiet once the treatment starts. I think it’s important to not get in the way of the treatment with chatter or noise.
  • The biggest thing is that I don’t do diagnoses, or give messages. What’s important is not what I feel, but what you feel, during the treatment and in the days afterwards. I actually think it can be harmful if a practitioner tells someone that they have a blockage in their heart chakra, or they are imbalanced. How do they really know that, and what does it all mean? Reiki shouldn’t be about practitioners projecting our ideas, assumptions and beliefs onto a client; it is about you taking from the treatment what you need at the time, and then observing how that plays out afterwards.

And a final P.S.: if a person says they are doing reiki and asks you to remove articles of clothing (except for your shoes)… don’t do it. You might consider questioning them… or reporting them.

Andy is super nice, patient and caring. He explains the treatment, he communicates really well and demonstrates a lot of interest in the patient’s needs, thoughts and feelings. It’s like sharing with a friend, a really helpful friend that makes things flow more, brings more clarity and strength!

Reiki treatment

Words can’t describe how i felt after having Reiki with Andy. I have never felt such a shift after my treatment. A+ service.

I’m definitely more Zen!
Thanks for a great treatment! 🙏🏻

*

I thoroughly enjoyed my reiki session with Andy. I am an energy healer myself who has received many healing sessions by various persons and I am very impressed by Andy’s work. He has a relaxed and comforting vibe and his treatment room breaths beauty and tranquility. During the session I could clearly feel my energy moving, shifting and coming back into balance. I left Andy’s feeling refreshed and vitalised and I am looking forward to more sessions.

*

I couldn’t be more happy with the treatment. I’ve been feeling in a good zone the past few days and I certainly feel in a good place now… I’m still feeling calm, my mind feels pretty clear and I feel relaxed. I certainly feel like you’ve cleared some channels, and I certainly would recommend Reiki to anyone who feels a similar way…
Thank you for the treatment and the effect it has had!

*

I felt happy although tired after the reiki & my happiness continued to improve over the following days. I haven’t felt too much stress or anxiety over the following days…

Bring a friend!

 

My aim during a reiki treatment is to make a client as comfortable as possible.

But I’ve been surprised over the last years when clients have shown up with their partners or friends.

As Reiki Surry Hills is a private space, I don’t have a waiting room that’s separate from the treatment room.

But in the end, I’ve learned that this is obviously the way that the client feels more comfortable, at least for their first session. I understand that it can feel uncomfortable coming into a strange space with someone you’ve never met before to have a treatment, which you may not have ever had before and don’t know what to expect!

I don’t think it’s a perfect situation as an extra person in the room can be distracting, and can take away from the focus of the energy of the treatment, but I guess if it helps to make a client feel more comfortable, this could balance that out!

So, if you’re coming for a treatment, and will bring a friend, please warn me in advance. At least that way I can have time to put out an extra cup for tea! But more importantly, make sure they understand that they will be in a room for nearly an hour, and will need to be quiet and still. If they’d like, they can bring a book, or read on their phone, or simply be quiet and meditate. The husband of one client came, looked uncomfortable and unhappy for the whole treatment, and fidgeted: not good. But another husband was very still and said after that he loved the energy in the room and felt like he had gotten a treatment too!

At the same time, I have been asked if two people can come at the same time, for a treatment at the same time… The answer is no! Although reiki practitioners can give reiki in most situations, and could practice reiki in a group setting, for someone who hasn’t had a treatment before, I really don’t think it’s the best way to have a treatment to have more than one person at a time. It could be distracting and more difficult for everyone, and the aim of reiki is to make things easier!

Latest review: I’ve already booked in my next appointment

I just had another nice review put up on my Bookwell page (that’s the page from where you can do an online booking, as well as pay for a treatment by credit card).

The place was easy to get to and I felt immediately comfortable when I arrived. Andy explained about Reiki and what he does. It was an incredible experience and I felt better straight away and have continued to do so. I have already booked my next session in.

I love happy clients!

Reviews and Testimonials: Reiki Surry Hills

I noticed recently that my reviews page on this website is one of the most read pages. That makes sense. People who are considering a treatment will want to know the possible effects, and whether this Reiki Surry Hills guy is trustworthy and good.

It’s pretty unwieldy to have all of my reviews on the one page, so I am creating this blog post to collect more reviews and testimonials (and will have a link to it from the reviews page):

‘Amazing experience and so happy that I received relief immediately after the treatment as I was suffering from stress related painful migraines. I feel so relaxed, happy and completely zen, balanced and recharged.’

‘When I woke up the day after my reiki session with Andy, I felt like all my negative thoughts and emotions were millions of miles away and I was able to finally let things go. It would be an understatement to say it was amazing… It was absolutely wonderful…’

I’m glad I found you.’

‘I felt really grounded and calm after my session.’

‘I felt great after the treatment… re-energized’

‘Slept better than I have in ages. I feel more balanced and just lighter somehow.’

‘I found it really interesting how I felt wide awake the whole time, but my mind, rather than racing (which it normally does) was very purposefully moving from challenge to challenge, and creating ways in which to solve them.  I felt very focused and calm during this process.’

‘I certainly have noticed a great improvement with my anxiety. Following the treatment I felt my mind was clear and it’s helped me gain extra clarity.’

‘It really felt like everything that wasn’t serving me was just “moved on”

I really liked my first Reiki session. It made me feel so calm, relaxed and lighter during the session and even after… I had a very deep sleep that night and woke up feeling quite rejuvenated… To be honest, I’m not sure if I could feel its effect after day 2 but I’m still amazed with the overall experience.’

‘I’ve felt quite calm and more balanced after my treatment. I did feel quite floaty afterwards but also had a great sleep that night…  I’m finding myself in a more positive frame of mind after the treatment, so my dealings with stresses seem not as chaotic as they have been…  Thanks again for the treatment, and I’m sure I’ll be in touch when I need another one!’

‘I thoroughly enjoyed my experience. To be honest afterwards I felt quite tired and had a very stressful day. But today I feel so much more relaxed and like some of the pain of my relationship has lifted, that sick feeling in my tummy is much lighter.’

‘I really enjoyed the reiki session, I feel really good and noticed I am not over thinking things which I sometime do at work. I’m Not allowing myself to get stressed out.’

‘When I came into you yesterday I was stressed .. After the treatment I came out feeling extremely relaxed and had a very good day.  I also sleepy extremely well last night and when I woke up I had a feeling in happiness inside me instead of the feeling of anxiety… My day so far has been relaxed and good.’

‘Yesterday I was super productive, steaming through everything I had to get done. Today I’ve been a bit whacked out and lazy… So hopefully will find a happy medium over the next few days.’

‘Everything felt relaxed and free and that feeling went into the night and over the few days.’

‘ I’m a happy girl. Feeling completely back to normal and even a better version of myself. The pain is gone, I’m sleeping better, and I feel stronger emotionally… Immediately after the treatment I was so aware of my senses and felt like I was walking on the moon. I think I felt naturally high it was so nice and that feeling has subsided since… Several hours later I felt very drained and exhausted and the following day I had a very mild sore throat for a short time… I feel great now and I intend to come back soon to maintain this new found inner strength.’

‘The experience was amazing! I feel more connected with myself!’

‘After the treatment I did feel a sense of relief and going home that evening I did sleep well and have done so apart from this morning when I began to feel a lil anxious again… In terms of my confidence and negative thoughts I did feel like something left me that day (only way I can describe it) that I let go.’

‘I’ve been feeling much better and sleeping well after the treatment.’

‘Ya I’m feeling really good now but the day or two after the reiki I felt terrible, I was anxious and really short fussed and snappy… I’m feeling amazing now just really happy with my life and were I’m at… 
Thank you again for the reiki it was really beautiful and important for me too I think! I have also noticed my my knees have been really good and they were really sore before the reiki and when you touched them during the reiki I felt lots of energy.’

‘I feel the same, not much difference, I slept good which is great but still have anxiety and have it near bad today but don’t know why….. Thanks for checking up.’

‘I am definitely feeling more relaxed after the session on Saturday. I think the reiki sessions would be a great long-term investment for my personal wellbeing.’

‘I definitely felt a shift in my energy for sure. not such a heavy burden weighing on my shoulders… I will definitely come back for more Reiki in the future. It can only be a positive thing.’

‘I didn’t feel anything huge changed in the next few days, more so I felt super relaxed and a bit spacy – kinda like a natural drug :)’

‘Last night I felt great, like I didn’t have a care in the world, and that all this baggage and heavy energy I suppose I’d be carrying around was gone. Later in the evening I was able to communicate more calmly and clearly with my partner about things I’d been bottling up or hadn’t been able to express properly in the past.’

‘I have definitely been feeling better and somewhat lighter. Yes, I would agree that I have been feeling a sense of lightness to my thinking the last couple of days. Another way to explain it, it is in the last couple of days I feel like I have not been getting so caught up in my thoughts – perhaps thats why you were feeling heat when touching my head! … Overall I definitely enjoyed the process. I really appreciated your warm and gentle nature, you made me feel very comfortable.’

‘I really enjoyed receiving the reiki treatment from you. I found afterwards my mind was clear when it would usually be running with thoughts. I also felt as though my vision was clear.. the best way I can think to describe it is to say my eyes/vision was a dirty windscreen which was cleaned.. might sound a bit strange but that’s how it felt.’

‘I had a good Thursday evening, but found sleep hard to come by the next three nights… However I am continuing to feel clearer in my head, and also more energy in my physical self.’

‘I’m feeling good today, energized and I loved my hour out. I did feel deeply relaxed yesterday and it was so special. Loving having an hour out for myself.’

‘After the session I still felt a little anxious and sore… On a plus side, today I feel surprisingly ok given I’ve had no sleep, of course tired but not nearly as bad as I was expecting for such a bad night. I have also let go of my anger and disappointment that I had before the session…’

‘The treatment has definitely had some profound impact, I’m alternating between feeling energized and really drained…  I can still feel little streams of energy running through me and I do feel like I’ve experienced some sort of a shift…  I’m looking forward to seeing how this feels over the next week, and how it settles.’

‘Am feeling so much more grounded & connected to the person I know and am.’

‘With the energy I felt, I definitely felt something surge through my body – almost like a light vibration…’

‘I am feeling more centred emotionally which is nice – I had the flu when I came to you , I woke up yesterday feeling not as sick which was nice… Really enjoyed the treatment. I hope to come again shortly.’

‘I loved it… thank you again for the treatment, I have felt amazing since I walked out of your front door!’

‘I still feel great! There is a lot of emotional stuff/fears coming up but I am able to work through it and love the process even if it feels like a roller coaster right now 🙂 But I am sure I wouldn’t have been able to do it without your help.’

‘ I feel a great sense of piece & relief. Still a bit stiff & sore but that’s ok, I am dealing with that. Intuitively I know your reiki treatment accelerated the process for me to get to this stage. Andy, I feel blessed to have met such a professional & gifted healer like yourself, especially during this part of my journey.’

‘I have been feeling a little more grounded and focused – certainly focused on my health with a greater resolution to do right by my body.’

‘I loved my treatment. I felt very centred and focused for a few days after. Really helped me to realise that I’m on the right path.’

‘Yesterday afternoon I did notice I had a strong feeling of “lightness” in my mood. Definitely positive. That’s continued through to now.’

‘I felt quite light and free when I walked out of your amazing place in Sydney.’

‘I wanted to firstly thank you for my reiki treatment and although it was my first it won’t be my last. My results were nothing short of impressive and include:
 
–          Feeling happy
–          Feeling of Wellbeing
–          Clearer in my thoughts
–          More clarity at work
–          More energised

‘I actually had a very deep sleep on night after the treatment, which as I mentioned I generally don’t sleep very well.’

‘After my second treatment I felt really relaxed and slept well again… I’ve felt really positive and energetic over the past few days… I think apart from the physical sensation of having more energy I feel more ‘clear’ … I feel really great after the treatment – I think the word that would sum up the feeling would be ‘content’.’

‘During the session I felt very relaxed, safe and centred, I also felt my sinus clear when you put your hands near my face. It’s not something that’s easily articulated but I felt my energy open during the session as I drifted in and out of sleep. I definitely felt my energy was very open straight after our session and I took some time to be alone in a quiet space to feel the effects of the session. I felt I wanted to be alone in nature and near water… Since [the treatment], I’ve been feeling very connected and present, and also very tired which usually happens after I have a shift or release… and I’ve been able to connect with myself more easily than usual.’

‘Reiki has done good to me… I’m still having some mild problems with falling asleep, but there are no thoughts, no fear… I’m really calm and relaxed, but just only little bit excited, but nothing that I experienced before reiki. You have helped me to get my energy flowing again and I’m just so amazed by this…’

A review from a first-time client: Reiki Surry Hills

Here’s a nice review from a first-time reiki client:

I really liked my first Reiki session. It made me feel so calm, relaxed and lighter during the session and even after.

I had a very deep sleep that night and woke up feeling quite rejuvenated.

To be honest, I’m not sure if I could feel its effect after day 2 but I’m still amazed with the overall experience.

As I’d explained, how long you feel the effects of the treatment is quite variable (and varies between session and person). Some people only feel the effects during the treatment (hopefully a positive feeling of how the energy is moving around, and usually feeling deeply relaxed). Others feel the effects for the rest of the day or into the next day. Some people seem to feel the effects into the next few days, or the treatment is the marker of a turning point, getting past a bad issue or the start of healing.

As I mentioned in one of my other blog posts, there’s also the phenomenon I’ve noticed lately that is happening with a big minority of clients (maybe one-third!) where they have a period after the treatment of feeling either run-down or tired or more emotional. All that energy stirred up can take a while for the body to adjust. But then, happily, afterwards, they feel better than before.
