FOR DISTANCE REIKI HEALING
What is distance Reiki healing?
Distant Reiki healing is a form of energy healing where the practitioner sends Reiki energy to the client without being physically present. The practitioner uses intention and focus to channel energy across any distance, helping to promote healing and loving energies.
How does distance Reiki healing work?
During a distant Reiki session, the practitioner uses a photo or drawing and detailed information about the client to focus their energy. The Reiki energy is sent to the client’s energy field, which can help clear negative energy and promote balance and healing, regardless of physical location.
What do I need to do to prepare for a distance Reiki session?
Find a quiet, comfortable space where you can relax during the session. You may choose to meditate, nap, or simply rest. It's also helpful to set an intention or focus for the session if you have specific areas you want to address.
How long is a session?
Each distant Reiki session lasts approximately 30 minutes.
How will I know when the sessions starts and ends?
You will receive an email from us at the start and end of your scheduled session time. There will be no video call; communication will be via email.
What you should expect to feel during and after the session?
During the session, you might experience various sensations such as tingling, warmth, or cold, and you may have emotional or visual experiences. After the session, you might feel relaxed, calm, or tired as your body processes the healing energy.
How can I book a distance Reiki session?
You can book a session through this link. Please ensure you book your session at least 24 hours in advance. After booking and payment, you will receive an email with instructions on how to provide us with your details and a photo.
Is distance Reiki safe?
Yes, distant Reiki is a safe and non-invasive practice. It is a complementary therapy and can be used alongside other medical treatments. If you have specific health concerns, it's always a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional.
What if I do not feel anything during the session?
Not everyone experiences physical sensations during a Reiki session. The benefits of Reiki can still be present even if you do not feel immediate effects. Keep an open mind and give yourself time to process the experience.
Can I gift a distance Reiki session to someone else?
Yes, you can gift a distant Reiki session as long as the recipient consents to receiving it.
What is your policy on cancellations or rescheduling?
If you need to cancel or reschedule your distant Reiki session, please contact us at least 12 hours before your scheduled appointment. We will do our best to accommodate your request. Please note that cancellations made less than 12 hours before the session are not eligible for a refund. However, rescheduling may still be possible depending on availability.
What is your policy on refunds?
As distant Reiki sessions are a form of energy work, we do not offer refunds once the session has been conducted. If you have concerns about your session or need to discuss any issues, please contact us at contact@gummaae.com, and we will address your concerns to the best of our ability.
What should I do if I have additional questions or need support?
