Reiki in Tampa 

Reiki is a therapy that I have seen produce great results. I am very proud to support and practice Reiki in South Tampa. 

My mission is simple: to share the Reiki experience.

I do this through my Reiki Circle, trainings, and sessions that promote Reiki as a practice for stress reduction and symptom management. Below you can find more information about what Reiki is, how it facilitates health in the body, and how I train people interested in Reiki to become Reiki practitioners.

What is Reiki?

First and foremost, what is Reiki!? Let's break it down. Reiki is from Japan. Reiki is a name for the energy flowing through all things. It is also the name of a practice that cultivates proper energy flow in the body to facilitate health.

Cultures around the world understand that proper energy flow creates health in the body. Traditional Chinese Medicine uses Acupuncture, Yogis use Pranayama, Polynesians practice Huna, etc. Under many different names each culture has created a practice of restoring energy flow for health, healing, and stress reduction. Reiki is one of those methods.

Reiki is a non-invasive tool to calm the mind and relax the body, it is being used in Hospitals, it is featured in major medical publications, and is part of a growing interest in holistic preventative care.

One of the best ways to help you understand Reiki is by experiencing it first hand, which is why Massage Redefined formed the South Tampa Reiki Circle. I encourage you to join us on a Wednesday from 6pm to 7pm to experience the relief Reiki can bring first hand. But for now let's continue to describe how Reiki works.

How Reiki Works

Reiki is a form of energy work, which means the practice of Reiki revolves around restoring proper energy flow in the body. Reiki practitioners balance the energy flow of the body through gentle touch, this gentle touch is also very relaxing which helps trigger a meditative state which is shown to reduce stress and help the body heal. 

A Reiki session can be given by friends, family, or a Reiki professional. Reiki can also be learned so you as a Reiki practitioner can give yourself and others daily Reiki treatments, this is the true potential of the Reiki system, that anyone of any age, background, or condition (even pets!) can receive a treatment and learn to share Reiki because of its simplicity, backed by its results.

How Reiki Brings a Community Together...

Reiki's ability to strengthen family and community is another benefit of this system. Easy to learn and practice, every age group can participate because there are no known contraindications for Reiki.

Families can practice Reiki together, friends can trade Reiki sessions, Mothers can Reiki their children at all levels of development (pre and post-natal included), and spouses and partners can give a Reiki session at the end of a stressful day. Reiki's possibilities in daily life are endless. 

Reiki is strictly an energy flow technique with no religious affiliation so there is no faith that is excluded from practicing Reiki or from being a part of Tampa's Reiki community. Reiki furthermore does not need to be believed in to be effective, sceptics are encouraged! The first hand experience of Reiki is what makes it so popular.

Massage Redefined holds a
Reiki Circle every Wednesday for Reiki practitioners and those interested in Reiki. We discuss the foundations of Reiki practice, engage in Reiki treatments, and share our personal experiences. If Reiki is something you would like to experience feel free to attend one of the upcoming meetings to find out more about how other people use Reiki in their daily lives.

Reiki Training

It is the constant practice of Reiki that makes a practitioner more experinced in the art of energy flow. Each of the three levels of Reiki training imparts different lessons and techniques of the Reiki practice, each building on the previous level. 

I am approved by the Florida Board of Massage Therapy to teach all three levels of Reiki for Licensed Massage Therapists (CE Provider #50-13417).

I take pride in teaching Reiki in a practical and professional way. Reiki trainings are held throughout the year and one-on-one training is also available upon request. 

(more on learning Reiki and the 2012 Reiki Training schedule here)

So many lessons are learned through the system of Reiki. I encourage everyone to learn and practice Reiki for themselves, their friends, and family.

If you are interested in learning Reiki check out the Reiki Circle too, the group loves to share their Reiki experiences.
Now that I know about Reiki, What now?

You have been given a glimpse about the practice of Reiki and the ways Reiki can help benefit you, so now what do you do? There are a lot of options. Check out the following states of mind and see which course of action would be best for you:

I think I would like to do it, but I'm not sure...
If you're at this stage then you're making the first steps towards a potential Reiki practice. We would suggest that you come to one of our Reiki Circle meetings to talk to other Reiki practitioners, share your thoughts, ask questions, experience Reiki first hand, and learn a little more about what Reiki has to bring to the table.

I've been thinking about this for a while, now I'm ready...
Great! We are so glad you've found us at the right time. Please feel free to attend our Reiki Circle to start practicing some of the fundamentals of Reiki. In the mean time you can check your schedule and book your Reiki Level One training online, you can choose between the next Reiki group training and one-on-one instruction.

I've been trained in Reiki, but haven't practiced for a long time...
That's ok, we're here to help. Your confidence in the training your received will determine where you should go from here. Do you feel like you got the right amount of training or do you need a refresher? Based on your answer we can set up a review of any of the levels or you can jump-start your practice by joining our Reiki Circle.

Many of our Reiki practitioners who attend our Reiki Circle in South Tampa have had previous training and are looking to get back into their Reiki practice. Massage Redefined's Reiki students also attend, and we make sure that everyone feels welcome regardless of practice level. 

I would like to experience Reiki, but I'm not sure that I want to learn how to do it...
Reiki sessions are always available. Once you receive a Reiki session you'll be able to better gauge what role Reiki can play in your life. Being a Reiki Master is not for everyone, but training in Reiki Level One to have a solid foundation in Reiki self-treatment can be very beneficial.

Individuals who would like to come in for multiple Reiki sessions to help facilitate stress reduction and symptom management are encouraged to learn the self-treatment techniques of Reiki One because of the increased results we have seen in facilitating treatment goals. Regardless of your ultimate decision we are here to support you.

 

I'm still not convinced...
That is absolutely fine. We appreciate healthy skepticism and are always open to giving you more information about Reiki so you can make an informed decision. Below is current research on the practice of Reiki. If it's testimonials you crave then come to our Reiki Circle, or if you would prefer to talk with our Reiki Master Sam feel free to give us a call at 813-831-9420, if he is in a session then he will give you a call back as soon as he can. 

Reiki is an experience and results driven practice, if it didn't work for us we wouldn't offer it to you, please let us know if we can help you with any questions, comments or concerns.
