Reiki + Massage Therapy
Reiki aims to reduce stress and anxiety. Originating in Japan, Reiki also promotes healing in the body, while acting as a preventive therapy.
Energy can become stagnant in the body due to physical injury or emotional pain. In time, these energy blocks can cause illness. Energy medicine, such as Reiki, aims to help the flow of energy and remove blockages. Improving the flow of energy around the body, can enable relaxation, reduce pain, speed healing, and reduce other symptoms of illness.
The Benefits
Reiki is a gentle energy-based service that supports relaxation, emotional balance, and spiritual well-being. Sessions help calm the nervous system while encouraging energy to move more freely through the chakras, supporting a deeper sense of grounding, clarity, and inner renewal.
Inner Clarity
Many people experience greater mental and emotional clarity as energetic noise quiets and awareness deepens during and after Reiki sessions.
Energetic Realignment
Reiki supports realignment of the body’s energy centers, helping restore harmony and a sense of internal coherence.
Grounding Support
Reiki can help clients feel more present and anchored, especially during periods of emotional or energetic overwhelm.
Emotional Release
Reiki can help create space for emotions to surface and move through, supporting release of stored emotional tension.
Sleep Support
By promoting relaxation, Reiki can help improve sleep quality and ease difficulty falling or staying asleep.
Stress Recovery
Reiki sessions allow the body and mind to rest deeply, supporting recovery from prolonged emotional or mental strain.
Your first session begins with a gentle conversation about what you’re feeling emotionally, physically, or energetically. We create a calm, supportive space and tailor each session to encourage balance, grounding, and restoration based on what you need most.
Initial Appointment
Reiki sessions are quiet, meditative experiences that support energetic flow through the chakra system. Gentle energy work is paired with tools like singing bowls and chimes, creating a vibrational space for release, alignment, and deeper connection. Each visit is designed to encourage balance, restoration, and a greater sense of inner harmony.
The Experience
Reiki is often received as ongoing energetic support, helping restore harmony within the mind and body over time. Many clients return regularly as a way to stay energetically aligned, especially during periods of growth, transition, or emotional heaviness.
After a session, it’s common to feel subtle energetic shifts—deep calm, release, or a renewed sense of connection. Giving yourself quiet space afterward can support integration as the body and spirit continue processing the work.
Continued Support & Aftercare
Gentle Alignment, Inner Calm
Each session offers a quiet opportunity to slow down, reset, and reconnect inward. Time is personalized to support calm, energetic balance, and a sense of restoration, with care that gently shifts based on where you are and what you need most in the moment.
The Science Behind Reiki
Reiki works with the body’s energy systems to promote relaxation and reduce stress and anxiety. Through gentle, focused touch, Reiki helps calm the nervous system and encourages a shift into a restorative state where the body can begin to heal and rebalance.
Energy can become stagnant due to physical injury, emotional stress, or prolonged tension. Reiki aims to support the smooth flow of energy throughout the body, helping release blockages that may contribute to discomfort, fatigue, or imbalance, and supporting the body’s natural healing processes.
Moon Rabbit’s Reiki sessions are thoughtfully combined with massage, offering a hands-on approach that supports both energetic and physical well-being. This integrated treatment can help reduce pain, improve emotional balance, and promote a sense of clarity, ease, and overall vitality.

Frequently Asked Questions
During a session, you’ll lie comfortably on a massage table (fully clothed) while the practitioner places their hands gently on or just above specific energy centers of your body. You may feel warmth, tingling, or a gentle pulsing sensation as energy flows. Practitioners may also involve the use of various tools such as singing bowls or essential oils.
What should I expect during a Reiki session?
After a Reiki session, many people feel deeply relaxed, peaceful, and rejuvenated. Some experience a sense of lightness or emotional release. Because Reiki promotes detoxification, mild effects like increased thirst, fatigue, or vivid dreams can occur temporarily. These are signs your body is rebalancing and should resolve quickly.
What happens to your body after Reiki?
Reiki can support a wide range of physical, emotional, and spiritual concerns. It’s often used to reduce stress, anxiety, and fatigue; ease pain and tension; support recovery from illness or surgery; and promote emotional balance. Reiki is not a replacement for medical care, but it can be a powerful complementary therapy that enhances your overall sense of well-being.
What conditions can Reiki help with?
Preparation is simple. Wear comfortable clothing and arrive well-hydrated. Try to avoid caffeine or heavy meals right before your appointment so you can relax fully. Take a few deep breaths before your session and set an intention — whether it’s to reduce stress, find clarity, or simply receive healing energy.
How do I prepare for a Reiki session?
Unlike massage, Reiki does not involve muscle manipulation or pressure. Instead, it works on an energetic level, encouraging the body’s natural ability to heal itself. You remain fully clothed throughout the session, and the practitioner’s gentle hand placements aim to balance energy flow rather than target specific muscles or joints. However, Reiki and massage can be combined into a single session at Moon Rabbit.
How does Reiki differ from traditional massage?
Reiki is a gentle, energy-based healing technique that originated in Japan. It involves the practitioner placing their hands lightly on or just above the body to channel universal life energy, promoting balance and relaxation. Many people report feeling calmer, more grounded, and less stressed after a Reiki session. While scientific evidence is still developing, numerous studies and client experiences suggest Reiki can support overall well-being, reduce stress, and complement traditional medical treatments.
