ENERGY HEALING
A quiet space for relaxation, balance and connection.
Jo offers Reiki and Reconnective Healing as complementary wellbeing practices, creating time to slow down, rest and experience a quieter kind of therapeutic space.
WHAT DO WE MEAN BY ENERGY HEALING?
A complementary approach centred on rest and awareness.
Energy healing is an umbrella term used for a range of complementary practices in which the practitioner works with touch, near-body awareness or non-contact approaches within a calm and intentional setting.
People choose these sessions for many different reasons. Some are interested in the spiritual or energetic traditions behind the practice, while others simply value the opportunity to lie still, relax and step away from everyday demands for a while.
Jo works primarily with two approaches: Reiki and Reconnective Healing.
TWO APPROACHES
Reiki and Reconnective Healing
REIKI
A gentle Japanese complementary practice
During Reiki, you remain fully clothed and usually lie comfortably while the practitioner places their hands gently on, or just above, different areas of the body.
There is no massage or physical manipulation. The atmosphere is generally quiet and unhurried, giving you space to rest and notice whatever you experience.
RECONNECTIVE HEALING
A non-touch complementary practice
Reconnective Healing is generally carried out without physical touch. The practitioner works around the body rather than following a fixed sequence of hand positions.
The system uses its own language and concepts to describe the experience. These ideas belong to the Reconnective Healing approach itself and should not be confused with established scientific explanations of health or physiology.
WHAT HAPPENS DURING A SESSION?
A calm, simple process.
01
Settle
Jo will explain the session and make sure you are comfortable before beginning.
02
Rest
You remain fully clothed and can simply rest while Jo works with the chosen approach.
03
Return
There is time afterwards to sit up gradually and talk about the experience if you would like to.
WHAT MIGHT YOU NOTICE?
Every experience is individual.
Some people report feeling deeply relaxed or peaceful. Others notice warmth, tingling, changes in body awareness, imagery or simply the experience of lying quietly for a period of time.
Others may experience very little during the session itself. There is no particular sensation you are expected to have and no need to interpret the experience in a particular way.
A complementary wellbeing practice
Reiki and Reconnective Healing are complementary practices. They should not be used to diagnose a medical condition or as a substitute for medical or psychological treatment when that is needed.
Claims made within particular energy-healing traditions about invisible energies, frequencies or specific biological mechanisms have not been established as conventional medical or scientific fact.
Jo therefore presents these sessions as supportive wellbeing experiences rather than as a replacement for healthcare.
You can simply come as you are.
You do not need experience of meditation, Reiki or energy work. You also do not need to hold any particular spiritual belief in order to book a session.
The session can simply be approached as protected time to slow down, rest and reconnect with yourself.
