Usui Reiki Master Teacher and Jikiden Reiki® Shihan,
EFT Practitioner Trainer & Matrix Reimprinting Practitioner in Exmouth and Exeter
I understand that everyone feels stuck, overwhelmed or just need a little more support at times.
You might be stressed, anxious, struggling with sleep, or have a physical issue that is preventing you from living life to the full. If this is the case for you, I am here to help.
As a Reiki master with two decades of experience and an EFT (tapping) practitioner, I listen closely to what you need and use established healing techniques to restore balance and calm, bringing body, emotions, mind, and spirit into unison. Releasing tension from your body in this way will help you feel less stressed, sleep better, and have more energy throughout the day. I draw on a range of natural and practical energy techniques to support you to a balance in mind and body.
I am a verified Reiki Practitioner registered with the Complementary Natural Health Care Council.
I offer Reiki treatments in Exmouth and Exeter
These are fully clothed and can take place lying on a massage table or in a chair.
I also offer a range of Reiki courses and workshops.
What Can I expect during a Jikiden Reiki® Treatment?
During a Jikiden Reiki® treatment, you lie fully clothed on a therapy bed (treatments can be delivered seated if required). The treatment is conducted in a calm, quiet environment away from distractions where you can really relax. Jikiden Reiki is generally a hands on treatment Usui Sensei taught this approach as practitioners are able to feel areas of the body that appear to have a build up of toxins that can directly impact on the body's natural healing ability to restore and rebalance. This is known as byosen.
I use cotton cloths (tenugui) to cover your eyes to aid relaxation. I start at the head unless I am treating a specific area/ symptom on the body e.g. physically injury. I place my hands to where the imbalance is found and then channel Reiki energy through my hands to your body, which your body absorbs, this focused channeling of Reiki works to dissipate areas of tension and support better energy flow to promote balance. (Hand placement will be discussed with you prior to the treatment, with any modifications made to ensure you feel totally comfortable with the process). during which time you relax and unwind to some calming music.
Individual experiences of Reiki treatments can differ. However, Reiki is commonly experienced as a gentle flow of energy promoting a deep sense of relaxation, which commonly continues after the treatment has ended. Clients may or may not feel sensations during a Reiki treatment. Benefits reported by clients include deep relaxation promoting a calm, peaceful sense of well-being on all levels, improved sleep and a general feeling of lightness.
Enkaku (Distant healing)
For those who cannot travel to an in-person Reiki treatment. Reiki is still effective at a distance.
As a Jikiden Reiki® practitioner I will use a specific method of using Reiki energy for you as an absent receiver. Although, an in-person hands on treatment has the additional healing power of touch I am still able to feel the byosen (the body’s reaction/sensations from the illness, stress, worry or injury).
Who can benefit from an Enkaku treatment?
- Those who cannot travel to me in person wherever they may be in the world
- Those who may be in hospital
- Those who are struggling with stress, anxiety or worry who may need a little support through unexpected events or news.
What do I need to do?
I will arrange a time with you to speak prior to the treatment for a short consultation. Choose a time for the treatment when you can fully relax and be undisturbed. It is best if you can continue to relax for a short while afterwards.

My work in Reiki
I love offering Reiki treatments here in beautiful Exmouth. I have based my in person practice at the Exmouth Integrated Therapies Clinic.
I also offer treatments to those facing longterm health issues or critical illness. Please contact me if you think I can help.
Reiki is a complementary therapy that supports the body's natural healing. It does not replace any medical guidance and advice. Always keep your medical team informed.
I have also worked with other members of the Jikiden Reiki® UK Association to develop the Jikiden Reiki® Verified Practitioner status awarded by the Reiki Council meeting the standards required by the CNHC. I am one of the first Jikiden Reiki® Practitioners in the UK to gain the award. I am a teacher/assessor for the programme and guide others who also share my passion to enable Reiki to be more widely available in hospitals and other medical settings.
You can be confident you are choosing to work with an experienced passionate Reiki practitioner!
I love to talk about Reiki share success stories, practical approaches and how I live my life with Reiki at its heart. Please contact me if you would like me to give a talk to your group.
How can learning Jikiden Reiki® help me?
- The Jikiden Reiki® courses I run are suitable for complete beginners to Reiki as well as those who have received training in Reiki before.
- This is the ideal course to help you reconnect with your Reiki practice if you are feeling a bit lost. You still have your Reiki. Learning Jikiden Reiki can enhance your Reiki practice and treatments.
- Most courses are a mix of people new to Reiki and those who have had some previous training in Reiki elsewhere.
- Shoden is taught over two days ideally together over a weekend, I can also offer an option on separate days if work or family commitments are a barrier to beginning your Reiki journey.
- At the end of your Jikiden Reiki® training courses, you will receive an official Jikiden Reiki® English course certificate. You will also receive a personalised (your name handwritten in Japanese) Japanese traditional block print certificate, as used in the early Japanese Reiki courses) issued from the Jikiden Reiki® Institute, Japan (these are ordered from Japan) and take a few weeks longer to arrive.
Key things you will gain from taking Jikiden Reiki® Training:
- You will be able to access this powerful natural Reiki energy for life, helping you feel more peace in your life, whenever you need it, wherever you are.
- You will have the ability to create a more relaxed state, reducing your stress levels.
- You will grow as a person, Reiki being the development of mind and body.
- You will be able to help your mental, emotional and physical health and well-being.
- You will have tools to practically support the well-being of your family and friends.
Who else may benefit from learning Jikiden Reiki?
Are you someone who supports or cares for others either in professional practice ( health and wellbeing therapists, yoga teachers, education and health professionals) or in your family role?
I also offer these courses specifically for EFT practitioners and other energy healing practitioners. Traditional Japanese Reiki will add an extra dimension to your treatments and offer you a simple practice to support you in your work to support others. These courses can be taught individually or in small numbers.
This is a wonderful set of techniques for parents to learn as it can help you stay centred and balanced. If you are finding life with newborns, children with high levels of anxiety or Special Educational Need demanding I can support you with sharing these simple techniques.
As a grandmother I often support my children and grandchildren with Reiki for everyday ailments.
