Rediscover Your Authentic Self
Reiki is...
Rei = Sacred or Spiritual
Ki = Life-force or Energy
Reiki is Spiritual / Sacred Energy...In essence we are all Reiki
Everything is energy, we are energy and when our body is in balance, our energy flows with ease. At times we can feel as though something is hindering the flow, this might be emotional turbulence, stress or high anxiety. Life's challenges can leave us feeling depleted, stuck and out of balance.
Reiki is a non-invasive form of ‘palm healing’ or ‘energy healing’ that promotes the natural flow of energy through the body and creates balance and harmony on all levels.
Reiki supports your body’s own healing capabilities and can help to ease pain, anxiety and tension, reduce stress and worry and bring a deep sense of relaxation and calmness, instilling a noticeable sense of wellbeing. Reiki improves creativity and invokes an optimistic mindset that promotes positive life choices for greater inner peace and balance. Regular Reiki treatments support calmer responses to life’s challenges.
Reiki works well with most medical conditions and all age groups, including pregnant women, new-born babies, children and animals. Reiki has no contraindications and works beautifully alongside other complementary therapies and orthodox health care practices.
Relax and rebalance your mind and body, reclaim your spirit
We all hold the key to our own unbinding and our body knows how to heal itself when given the right conditions. At times we need someone to walk alongside us for a while as we find our way, restore balance and return to wholeness.
Your Reiki Treatment...
Before your Reiki Treatment:
Please avoid alcohol, caffeine and/or a heavy meal before your treatment.
During your Reiki Treatment:
Your Reiki treatment lasts for about an hour but please allow a couple of hours in total for a confidential consultation beforehand and time to integrate your healing afterwards and receive the aftercare guidance. I have a cosy and warm treatment room and you will be fully clothed and invited to rest on a warm treatment couch. Generally, there is no conversation during your treatment and soft music is played in the background. You will have your eyes closed and may wear an eye-pillow if you choose. During your treatment I will hover their hands over you, beginning at your head and moving down your body, following the flow of energy and any intuitive prompts, usually finishing at your feet. You may feel a gentle breeze, warmth or coolness, or a light touch; sometimes you may feel nothing at all.
Reiki treatments are deeply relaxing and restorative, and you may drift into a peaceful and restful sleep. All you need to do is be open to receive all you need to receive and let Reiki do the rest.
After your Reiki Treatment:
Reiki can help to detoxify the body and you may feel a little tired, dehydrated or headachy afterwards. It is recommended that you avoid alcohol and caffeine and drink plenty of warm water and/or herbal teas for 24-48 hours after your treatment; you may need to go to the toilet more frequently as your body releases toxins. You may notice changes in your body temperature and emotions as you regain equilibrium: these are all a natural part of the healing process and a good sign that your body is rebalancing. You will receive aftercare advice to support you after your treatment.
Treatment costs:
In Person treatment: £45
*Remote / distance treatment: £40

Reiki Courses
The System of Reiki was birthed in Japan by Mikao Usui in the early 1900s as a
form of self-healing. Its healing benefits were so profound that Reiki is now practiced
world-wide, enabling thousands of people to alleviate the symptoms of many
debilitating health conditions and return to wellness.
My Pathway to Reiki
I stepped onto the Reiki path by receiving a Reiki treatment in June 2001. I was so blown away by the impact on my physical and mental wellness that I had to learn this amazing way for self-healing. I took Level One on my 36th birthday the same year and Level Two a year later and Level Three (Masters) in 2005.
When I became unwell with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS/ME) in 2014 and totally lost my mobility
it was Reiki that helped me to get out of a wheelchair and brought me back into harmony and restored wellness and joy in my life. Through this journey of self-discovery and healing I can safely say that Reiki has changed my life in deeply profound and positive ways. i often wonder where i would be now without Reiki in my life!
Initially training in the ‘Western’ style with the Chakra system I was keen to go deeper and learn more about the 'Roots of Reiki' and the traditional Japanese teachings of 'The System of Reiki'.
In 2021 I repeated Level Three Shinpiden Master-Teacher to integrate the traditional practices and teachings with the intention of sharing with others who “Feel Called.”
It is with this combined knowledge, personal and shared experience that I bring the traditional Japanese teachings to the fore and currently offer Shoden Level One and Okuden Level Two – Practitioner Level, with plans to extend into Level Three Shinpiden teachings later in 2026.

My Reiki experience with Julie...
Luna...
“I had the pleasure of taking my Reiki Level One and Two with Julie Keen last year, and both experiences were amazing!
Julie is highly knowledgeable, and she delivers that wisdom in a clear and understandable way.
Our group had a mix of people, some who had zero knowledge of what Reiki was, and others who had previously done Reiki trainings. Julie was able to cater to all of our individual needs, whilst ensuring that everyone felt cohesive as a group on a journey.
Julie clearly practices what she teaches, and her personal practice is evident in all of the anecdotes she adds in. For me, this is invaluable, as knowledge is just information, but wisdom is when that knowledge is lived each day.
She is a wonderful and caring teacher, and I would recommend her Reiki courses to anyone seeking to further their understanding of energy and self-care".
Sally...
I had the absolute privilege of training with Julie as my Reiki teacher, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From start to finish, the entire experience was thoughtfully organised and deeply enriching.
Julie is incredibly knowledgeable and clearly well-researched in her field. She generously provided us with a comprehensive list of recommended books and resources, encouraging us to explore further and continue our learning beyond the training sessions. The course beautifully balanced theory and practice, allowing us not only to understand the foundations of Reiki but also to truly embody and apply what we learned.
All training materials were shared well in advance, giving us time to prepare and engage fully. The room was set up in a way that immediately felt welcoming and conducive to the work we were there to do. Julie thoughtfully grouped participants in a way that created a safe, supportive space where we could openly share thoughts and feelings.
Throughout the training, Julie offered meaningful opportunities to practice what we were learning with fellow participants, building confidence and connection. She consistently modelled the very best of Reiki practice in her own teaching, which was both inspiring and grounding.
What stood out most was how Julie followed up with us after the training, checking in on how we were feeling and processing our experiences. It's clear that she doesn’t just teach Reiki—she truly lives and breathes it, and that authenticity shines through in everything she does.Julie is a gifted teacher and a true guide, and I’m so grateful for the experience of learning from her".
Joanne...
"Learning reiki with Julie was a privilege. She understands learning and has an innate wisdom to teach.
Julie is a natural healer she allows the time and space for one's mind body and soul to connect with self and Gaia and the Universe to become in a state of embodiment and oneness. She openly shares her knowledge with love and light in all her teachings, bringing profound change to all that comes into contact with her.
We are all interconnected to the universal light and current teaching from consultants of light source such as Julie is a blessing.
I would wholeheartedly recommend Julie as a teacher".
With love and peace to all,
Joanne xxx
