The most common experience is an almost immediate release from stress and a sense of deep relaxation.
Reiki
is cumulative and even people who don't notice much the first time tend to have progressively deeper experiences if they continue. During the Reiki session, clients can feel waves of subtle energy that move smoothly through their body. Others may experience warmth or coldness in the practitioner's hands and may even see comforting colors or visions.While these are normal responses, it is also completely common to “feel nothing during the session, but still be left with a feeling of deep relaxation, general well-being and inner peace. What's important to remember is that Reiki works on all levels, so even if there isn't a physical sensation, the energy could be working on a deep emotional or spiritual level. Having warm hands is supposedly a credible sign that the tune worked and that you are now officially a Reiki channel. When Reiki is extracted from the palms of your hands at a faster rate or in greater proportions than you are used to, you may experience the vibration of your hands.
Reiki can be placed on any object by holding it in your hands and allowing Reiki energies to pour into it. Because Reiki is a holistic form of energy healing that helps create balance in mind, body and spirit, it is possible that while the client seeks relief from knee pain, deep emotional release will occur. Although he did not confirm an increase in doctors using reiki, he acknowledged that if there were, it could have to do with an industry-wide interest in finding alternatives to opioids.

The fact that you can feel Reiki flowing, whether you are giving or receiving it, is a verification that energy is being welcomed. Reiki is very experiential and because each of us is very unique, it is quite difficult to explain what can happen during your session. Some people are more in tune with their bodies than others and will be able to share fantastic stories about how to feel the different sensations that occur when using Reiki. Speaking in these terms can bring fear to the Reiki session and also make the client feel less empowered.
It also seems that, as with the practice of certain types of meditation, some practice of reiki could aggravate anxiety in those prone to it. This dispersion of technique can be a source of frustration for those who have been trained in the specific method developed by man generally accepted as the founder of modern Reiki, Mikao Usui. While Reiki can be used for anyone regardless of age or medical diagnosis, it is important to emphasize that Reiki is not a substitute for traditional medical care. The role of the Reiki practitioner is to facilitate the healing process, not to diagnose or determine where there may be energy blockages.
If you routinely feel tired after giving Reiki to another person, this is an indication that you need to focus on self-treatment for a while.
