Before undertaking healing of any patient, a healer must consider the following points of queries.
Undertaking the responsibility
First of all, the healer has to inwardly seek the permission to treat the person.
He / she has to consider the responsibility connected with it and determine whether one is qualified to take it. Whenever there is even the slightest reason to assume that the patient suffers from serious physical or mental illness, and the healer is neither a physician nor a non-medical practitioner, he / she should immediately assign the responsibility to other more qualified person.
If reiki has to be applied along with some medical treatment or psychotherapy,
One better know whether and how your client is being treated with drugs and have them ask their physician or psychotherapist if any doubts remain. If that is not possible, one can always limit Reiki work to fewer treatments. As soon as the healer gets the clarity and conviction about the situation one can proceed. It is important to obtain a time commitment from the client.
The healer also has to ask himself : "Are you also willing to commit time? Are you willing to deal with some of your own issues, which may come up as a reaction to the other`s process? Your development may be speeded up as well. Are you ready to take this exciting step in your own development as well? If you make yourself available as a Reiki channel frequently, you can expect a definite acceleration in your own development. Are you willing to take this leap now?"
After all these considerations, one can then focus on Proceedings regarding the treatment. The proper sequence for hand positions according to the client needs are presented in this section, but they may also subsequently be determined in consultation with a physician or therapist. According to the scope of healer`s own qualifications he / she can make his/ her own diagnosis and perform Reiki treatment on this basis.
Considerations for the whole body treatment
After you have clarifying the healer`s position, the forthcoming Reiki sessions will raise further questions which also need to be clarified. The first answer needed is whether you might want to limit whole body treatment. Treatment might be shortened In the case of very weak persons and small children. For example, the total period can last upto about 20 minutes.
One might also apply shorter treatments with fewer positions to persons taking drugs (allopathic medication). In case the client has a disposition for energy build-ups, manifesting as headaches, or as extraordinarily severe complaints during or before the menses in women, certain positions may be omitted and the regions of the body affected by those complaints only given indirect treatment. In other cases you may need to focus on specific areas in conducting whole body treatment and specifically channel Reiki energy to especially needy areas.
Some partial treatment having the effect of whole body treatment, such as chakra balancing or short treatment may be advisable. There is also a possibility that the healer may have to consider specific Reiki work such as emergency measures (first aid), elimination of clearly defined blockages such as scars, or local, limited inflammation, or chronic tension in certain part of the body. Many instance need the support Reiki work by supplementary measures such as the use of precious stones, fragrances, sounds, counseling, bodywork, diet or other therapeutic measures. Here also the healer has to ask whether he / she is qualified to make the respective decision and assume the responsibility for carrying out the appropriate measures.
A Secondary Consideration
The connection between the healer and the patient can be developed by conversation. one might consider a friendly chat with the client before or after treatment. something can be said during sessions if necessary to make the patient more comfortable with the entire procedure. This depends each individual case. On some days silence may be best. One can sense if it is appropriate to speak, but at all times keep in mind the importance of a quiet, peaceful atmosphere.
"Rituals" after the Reiki session
After completing whole body treatment, one needs to again smooth the aura and use the energy stroke. One can also give thanks for having been allowed to transfer Reiki energy, wash my hands and perhaps advise the client to drink more water, shower, avoid alcohol, get more rest or take other appropriate measures.
