What is Reiki?

A gentle guide to Usui Reiki and Reiki crystal healing — what it is, how a session works, and who it can support.

The basics

The universal life energy

Reiki is a traditional Japanese energy healing practice that works with the body’s natural energy to support physical, emotional, mental and spiritual wellbeing.

As a Reiki Master, Leesa practices traditional Usui Reiki, with a lineage that traces directly back to the founder, Mikao Usui. Reiki is used to help clear energetic blockages and rebalance the body’s energetic systems.

A calm, restful moment during a Reiki session
How it works

A gentle, hands-on practice

Gentle hand positions

Hands are placed lightly on or held just above the body in a sequence of positions, guiding energy where it’s needed.

Working with the chakras

Attention is given to the body’s energy centres, supporting balance where things feel blocked or out of sync.

An intuitive pace

Guided by both Leesa’s guides and guardians, and yours, each session unfolds in the way it’s most needed for you.

Although every treatment has its own purpose, larger or longstanding imbalances are often best supported through a series of Reiki sessions, allowing the body’s energy to rebalance gently over time.

Reiki crystal healing

Carefully selected crystals, charged with Reiki energy and placed on or beside the body according to the chakras that may benefit from healing, balancing or clearing.

04

An intuitive approach

Guided by both Leesa’s guides and guardians, and yours, so each session unfolds in the way it’s most needed for your individual journey.

Gentle, age-appropriate sessions to support calm and wellbeing.

Reiki support for your animal companion, in a way they’re comfortable with.

A powerful pairing

Reiki crystal healing

Alongside traditional Usui Reiki, Leesa also offers Reiki crystal healing. The two are woven together within the same session — crystals are chosen according to the chakras that may benefit from healing, balancing or clearing, then charged with Reiki energy before being placed on or beside the body to complement the treatment.

Together, Reiki and crystal healing support the free flow of energy through the chakra system, in a session shaped entirely around you.
