How Reiki and Massage can help with Overwhelm

Overwhelm and the often associated feelings of helplessness, loneliness and exhaustion can affect anyone. However, there are solutions. Here is how I helped a recent patient to my clinic.

The patient
Female, 40’s – feeling overwhelmed with family issues, including concerns over her elderly Mother.  Feelings of helplessness and loneliness, as, although she has friends and family around, she feels the need to stay/appear strong and can’t open up to anyone, even close relations.  This has resulted in physical tension, emotional exhaustion and energy imbalance.

Therapies used
The client felt the need for safe, comforting and unconditional touch through Massage, which we agreed to combine with Reiki to assist with energy rebalance; the session allowed her to safely and freely release both emotional and physical tension and to talk confidentially around her concerns when these surfaced during the session.

How I Work
I offer  individual sessions of each Therapy (Reflexology, Intuitive Therapeutic  Massage, Reiki and Holistic Hypnotherapy) and also encourage, where  appropriate, integrated and intuitive sessions where a combination of  techniques may be adopted and/ or a programme of sessions advised.   My strengths lie in facilitating a state of relaxed awareness where  you can feel safe to recognise and let go of tension and constrictions, and BE YOURSELF.
