About the treatment
What is Reiki?
Reiki is a Japanese practice developed in the early twentieth century by Mikao Usui. The practitioner places their hands lightly on, or just above, different areas of the body, with the intention of supporting relaxation and a sense of balance.
There is no massage or manipulation, and you stay fully clothed. Most people simply lie back, close their eyes and rest. Some notice warmth or tingling, and others just feel very calm.
At Soma, Usui Reiki is offered by Emma Foster of Vibrant Being, a holistic therapist and yoga teacher. Her sessions are an invitation to feel heard and held, nourished and relaxed, and they are open to everyone.
