WHAT IS
VIBROACOUSTIC REIKI HEALING?
Maybe you have heard of Reiki but you don't quite know what it is. Maybe you're considering trying Reiki but are not sure whether it is right for you. Or maybe your doctor has suggested Reiki as a form of therapy complimentary to your existing medical treatments.
Reiki is an energy healing technique that promotes relaxation, reduces stress and anxiety through the transfer of universal energy from the practitioner's palms to the client. This helps improve the flow and balance of your energy to support healing. Reiki is used all over the world in hospitals and hospices to compliment other forms of health treatments.
​
Here at The Mended Willow we are excited to provide an elevated form of Reiki known as Vibroacoustic Reiki. Our specially designed sound table allows gentle low frequency sound waves to pulsate though your body during your Reiki session. These vibrations are designed to help you relax and heal. Vibroacoustic Therapy or VAT has been studied by researchers worldwide including the National Institue of Health(NIH). The NIH has reported on the benefits of using Vibroacoustic Therapy for Parkinson's, PTSD, anxiety, physical injuries, brain function, COPD, Asthma and much more.
