In the eastern tradition, (oriental medicine, martial arts, etc.) Ki or Chi is the original life force received at the time of conception and is the life force that flows through all living things. In your body Ki travels around a network of energy channels in the same way that blood flows through veins, supporting all organs and cells. The flow of Ki Energy gives you immunity and vitality, impacting on your mind and making you peaceful and bright. When we have a shortage of Ki or blocked and stagnant Ki in the body we may experience fatigue, illness or pain.

What is a Ki Treatment?

A Ki Treatment is a hands-on energy treatment that helps to improve the flow of Ki in the body. It is given by a Ki practitioner who also uses a natural breathing technique to transmit vital Ki Energy into the body. Although based on similar principles to acupuncture, Ki Treatment uses sound and touch instead of needles and has the power to detoxify the entire body, whilst having a calming effect on the mind and emotions. Ki Treatment boosts the energy of the whole body, restoring immunity and vitality. It has beneficial effects on many health conditions, and scientific research has demonstrated its positive effects on the immune, hormonal and cardiovascular systems.

How many Ki Treatments do I need to receive?

It varies from person to person, but generally the longer a person has been ill and the older a person is, the longer it can take to change their condition. Some people receive energy very well and experience immediate results. We recommend an initial course package of five Ki Treatments followed by an assessment of your progress.

What should I expect to feel after a Ki Treatment?

People can experience different effects, but generally most people feel lighter, calmer and less stressed. There is often a relief from pain and other symptoms, as well as feeling energized. Many chronic health conditions including tiredness, pain, depression, anxiety, insomnia and digestive problems are greatly relieved following a Ki Treatment. 

Can I receive a Ki Treatment while on medication or other treatments?

Yes, Ki Treatments do not interfere with medication or other treatments, and in some cases may be complementary. Some medications can have toxic side effects and the Ki Treatments help to detoxify the body.

Are there any side effects from a Ki Treatment?

Most people feel immediately better but it is possible to feel more tired following the Ki Treatment whilst energy fully digests into your system. In some cases, when someone is holding a lot of toxins in their body, Ki Treatment stimulates the movement and the further release of toxins over some days.  This may mean you would get a cold, mild headache or other symptom which would normally disappear in a day or two, but is part of the healing process. 

My body is very sensitive to touch. Will I be able to withstand the pressure?

Even though a Ki Treatment involves acupressure which may cause minor discomfort, the majority of people can withstand the pressure. However, if you are particularly sensitive you need to advise the Ki practitioner treating you to apply a lighter pressure.
