What types of energy healing are there?

Energy healing encompasses many modalities including Reiki, pranic healing, Therapeutic Touch, quantum healing, shamanic energy work and biofield therapy. Each has its own theoretical framework and techniques, but all work with the principle that facilitating energy flow supports healing. Your choice may depend on which approach resonates with you personally.

Do I need to believe in energy healing for it to be effective?

An open and receptive attitude is helpful, but strong belief is not required. Many sceptical clients have reported positive experiences. Practitioners generally encourage you to simply relax and observe your own experience without judgement or expectations.

Can energy healing replace medical treatment?

Energy healing should be used as a complement to, not a replacement for, conventional medical care. Responsible practitioners will always encourage you to maintain your medical treatments and will refer you to healthcare providers when appropriate.

What should I feel during a session?

Experiences vary widely. Common sensations include warmth, tingling, gentle pulsing, emotional release or deep relaxation. Some people feel very little during the session but notice changes in the hours or days afterwards. There is no right or wrong experience.

How many sessions are recommended?

This depends on your goals and condition. Some people benefit from a single session, while others prefer a series of treatments. Your practitioner will discuss options and typically recommend starting with three to four sessions to assess your response before planning further.
