Does Reiki really work at a distance?

It's a fair question, and the answer is: Yes. Nothing that Reiki proposes gets lost in distance. Over the course of the sessions, the effects become increasingly clear.

Why you are here

I sleep more but still feel exhausted and drained

And it's been months

Your nervous system might be locked in "fight or flight" mode. And you lack the energy to even look at the roots of it all. Reiki works gently to normalize and align what is dysregulated beyond the physical.

In traditional Reiki, chronic exhaustion is seen as the stagnation of Ki (vital energy). Think of this energy as the fuel for your vitality. Sleeping relaxes the muscles, but if there are blockages generated by continuous mental tension, the "tank" doesn't fill up. Reiki works by unblocking this flow, stimulating your body to return to its natural state.

An hour where nothing is asked of you

A Reiki session is an hour where you lie down, in your own room, without needing to explain, perform, or decide anything (you've already decided to give yourself the session as a gift). I work on my end while you rest. You can leave the camera off. You can sleep.

You are in your place of trust, with nothing unfamiliar around you. I am merely a channel so that the vital energy, which has always belonged to you, can meet you again through the Reiki technique.

What changes

Reiki for anxiety: what people actually report

Nothing mystical. Physical things you can check, usually within a day:

This is not a medical treatment, nor does it diagnose or promise a cure. It stands alongside your doctor and therapist — never in their place.

How the hour works

How a distance session really works

Three parts, in this order.

  1. We introduce ourselves briefly

    We meet on video for a few minutes. You can share a bit about where you are right now and why you'd like to use Reiki — or say nothing at all, which is also a complete answer. Then I will guide you to lie down in a comfortable place, wearing comfortable clothes, with my playlist or in silence, and notifications off. We end the call. I center myself and hold the session from where I am.

  2. I work. You rest.

    Until the end of our hour, I channel Reiki with sustained attention on you, moving remotely through the usual hand positions in the same order I would use if we were in the same room. You rest with your eyes closed. Most describe pleasant sensations during the session or the night after. Again, momentary sensations do not mean it worked or didn't.

  3. We wrap up calmly

    Coming back (waking up and getting up) slowly and gently is essential. Usually, after the session, I will send you an account of how it was for me, and you can share what you felt. After a Reiki session, it is important that you drink water, take some notes if you wish, and take your time getting up. If you can, take the rest of the day to be more in solitude, or in contact with nature, prioritizing lighter, healthier food. I call this grounding the session. If anything continues to intrigue you in the following days, you can write to me — that is included, not an extra.

The simplicity of the method (What I don't try to dress up)

Some people look for complex concepts and external theories to try to prove the invisible. I won't do that. Trying to explain vital force by borrowing vocabulary from other sciences is seeking an artificial authority that Reiki doesn't need. What I point to is a much more direct path: a time of absolute quiet. It is an hour where you can lower your weapons and defenses, receiving full presence without the obligation to give anything in return. An exhausted mind and a body trapped in a state of alert tend to find their natural axis in this silence. You are welcome to lie down on the table with all your skepticism intact, simply accepting to receive Reiki energy. Almost everyone who goes deeper into this path arrived on their first day doubting it.

Before you book

Questions people ask before booking

In practice, people report the exact same things remotely and in person — warmth, heaviness, their shoulders letting go, sleeping through the night. What distance removes is the commute and the strange therapy room; you are on your own couch or bed, which makes it easier, not harder, for almost everyone to let go. I can tell you what happens during the process and let you judge it against your own experience.

It is unique to each person and each session. However, many report a shift in the temperature of their hands, chest, or legs, a pleasant heaviness in their limbs, and a slow untying somewhere they didn't realize was tight. Some people fall asleep. Some feel almost nothing during the hour and then sleep for ten hours straight. Everything is valid, but neither extreme means it worked or didn't.

Every session is 60 minutes long. One starts at $55. The price adjusts to the country you access from, so the value shown is already in your currency. The same hour shouldn't cost an entire grocery trip in one place and a cup of coffee in another. Rescheduling is free. And if you'd like to slow down before paying for anything, the guided breathing/meditations are free and require no sign-up.

Believing, in my opinion, is a strong word, but being willing and doing your best to surrender to the silence of the session is fundamental. Belief is not a requirement that I can verify.

No. Reiki is not a religion, and nothing in the session asks you to believe or abandon anything. It was born in 1920s Japan as a hands-on healing practice, not as a faith. I see Catholic, Evangelical, Umbanda clients, people of all religions and none. The five principles I share are closer to daily intentions than to doctrine.

No, and please do not use it that way. It does not diagnose, does not treat, and promises no cure for anything. It works alongside your doctor and your therapist. Many people feel they reach something therapy left untouched — but that is in conjunction with therapy, not instead of it. If you are in a crisis, please seek emergency services in your city.

A place where you can rest alone for an hour. A blanket and comfortable clothes help. You'll receive a video link via email that opens right in your browser. Nothing to install, no forms to fill out.

Then you needed that sleep, and the session continues exactly the same. Falling asleep is common and doesn't interrupt anything.

When booking, the times appear in your own timezone, and I work with almost all of them. The sessions are in English, Spanish, or Portuguese — you choose when booking.

Almost everyone starts with one and decides from there. I recommend doing a session every 7 to 10 days in the beginning. Something usually shifts in the first session; whether that shift holds is the question the second one answers. For something ongoing, 4 sessions within 40 days is the standard pattern. But you don't need to commit to a package right away.

Sixty minutes, in your own room, in English, Spanish, or Portuguese. If the time no longer works, write to me and we will change it.
