Reiki Treatments
Reiki – translated as universal life force energy - is a Japanese method of activating your own internal healing energy to release blockages that may have physical or emotional sources and which are resulting in physical symptoms of all kinds, low energy, depression, feelings of being out of balance or disconnected. Receiving Reiki treatments should help your inner energy, known as Ki in Japan, Chi in China and Prana in India, to flow smoothly, to those parts of the body that require it.On the physical level, Reiki can help to relieve pain and assist in the regeneration of organs and tissue. On the mental level it can promote relaxation, reduce stress, loosen blocked energy paths and help to release the energetic impact of emotional scars. On the spiritual level it can help open the kundalini channels with the aim of accessing different states of consciousness, and union with the Universal Source, Spirit, True Self, One, God. Although it may assist in spiritual transformation, Reiki is not a religion, and does not require any philosophical doctrine or belief.
Reiki is totally non-invasive and cannot do any harm.
Reiki healing was developed (or some would say rediscovered) by Mikao Usui in Japan early in the 20th century. Originally it was handed down to a very small number of initiates or Masters. But in the last years of the 20th Century a number of Reiki healers felt that the earth needed as much healing as possible and decided to widen the number of those initiated or ‘attuned’ to the Reiki energy forces.
It is a completely natural healing energy activated by intention. It works on the physical, emotional and spiritual levels as each individual requires and is ready to receive. It is a holistic treatment promoting the body’s regenerative self-healing ability. It works with the inner physician that each one of us has inside our subconscious, which keeps each of the tiny energy pulses that constitute the atoms that make up our physical bodies vibrating, whether we are awake, asleep, in a coma, dreaming, conscious or unconscious.
Can I explain how it works? No, in 21st century, rational, scientific terms, I cannot. Does it work? Yes it does, and I look forward to giving you that experience.
Just for today I will give thanks for my many blessings
Just for today I will not worry
Just for today I will not be angry
Just for today I will do my work honestly
Just for today I will be kind to my neighbour and every living thing
Craniosacral Therapy
Craniosacral therapy is a subtle yet profound healing form which assists the body's natural capacity for self-repair.It involves the craniosacral system and the craniosacral fluid which is formed in the ventricles of the brain and then circulates around the central nervous system, inside the dura surrounding the brain and the spinal column. It also extends to the fascia throughout the body via the peripheral nervous system.
Sometimes when we suffer from a trauma – at birth, a physical accident or injury, an emotional or mental shock – this trauma can get held in the body’s tissues and nervous system, leading to ill-health and dysfunction.
This is increasingly recognized in the rapidly growing medical field of psychoneuroimmunology, which examines the way in which our thoughts and emotional state influence the chemicals released internally through our endocrine system as well as the response of our sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system, in turn influencing out immune system and the functioning of each cell in our body.
Craniosacral therapy can help to release these deeply held patterns resulting from trauma, both physical and psychological. It treats people and causes rather than symptoms and labeled conditions. The practitioner engages with the client’s underlying energetic vitality, represented in the craniosacral system, and helps the tissues to release any restrictions to the free distribution of this vitality throughout the body.
It is increasingly well recognized for its ability to resolve issues that are not helped by other ‘conventional’ means and it is suitable for babies, children, and the elderly, as well as adults and people in fragile or acutely painful conditions.

Each session lasts around one hour and is usually done with the client lying fully clothed on a therapy couch. I will tune into your system, often through the head or the feet, and thereafter I will take up a light contact on the cranium (the head), the sacrum (the tail-bone) or any other part of the body as appropriate, identifying subtle disturbances to the free motion of body tissues, the free circulation of body fluids, and the unrestricted flow of fundamental energy, potency, or vitality.
Reiki testimonials
I just wanted to say thank you for your help and healing over the past year. The session on Sunday was very unexpected but I do feel even stronger and more excited about life! The sessions have made me realise that I am me again!
When I first met Evelyn I was very stressed and exhausted, emotionally and physically. Within the first treatment I felt hugely better. Amazingly, she immediately pinpointed my energy blockages without me telling her anything about my pains or troubles. This has been the case ever since. I am so looking forward to seeing her every time, she never cease to surprises me with her intuition and healing abilities. Her tranquillity and kindness is infectious and after every treatment I feel invigorated, recharged but also blissfully happy and calm as if I just spent a time with a most caring and giving friend.
I would love to recommend your services - they really have made a difference to my health and overall outlook on life - I feel comfortable and safe when you are treating me, and I think that's pretty important. Though I don't understand the actual mechanics of Reiki, I have no doubts about its beneficial effects in my life and would advise anyone to try it.
I first went to Evelyn in a time of personal and emotional turmoil and no with real concept what Reiki was about. . . since the very first session I have given up trying to rationalise my experiences and now accept and explore them -they have helped me find balance in myself, in my life and I feel in a better, less stressful place. . . my recommendation to anyone reading this is to try it with an open mind and discover for yourself.
Evelyn thank you so much for the Reiki session. I feel it really made a difference in releasing the “lump in my stomach” but also in softening my feminine energies.
It makes me feel very nice and has helped to relax me a lot. I now suffer from fewer spasms than previously caused by my spinal injury.
Last night got home feeling very spacey but had the best night’s sleep I've had in several weeks. . . today feeling much better.
I was new to Reiki, partially sceptical but open to new ideas. I enjoyed the session which was followed by good feedback and discussion about previous physical injuries and ailments that Evelyn detected during the session.
Just wanted to say thank you for my Reiki session yesterday. My head is definitely feeling much more calm and relaxed, and I had a brilliant night’s sleep.
Craniosacral testimonials
'Evelyn’s gentle and reassuring approach made me feel safe and relaxed during her treatments. I did have immediate results with an old back injury and over time helped to prevent further resurfacing of an old injury. There have also been quite thought provoking experiences with some quite astonishing and wonderful revelations.'
'Although I was initially sceptic of the potential of craniosacral, Evelyn succeded in curing my long term back pain where physiotherapy, osteopathy and acupuncture had all failed.'
(From chronic sinusites sufferer) 'I suffer with sinus problems and cranio-sacral treatments have had an immediate effect on healing them. The treatments have also been very successful in curing my hip problem and are also very relaxing.'
