REIKI FOR SPECIAL KIDS AND THEIR AMAZING PARENTS.
REIKI
What is Reiki?
Reiki is a healing modality that uses Universal Life Force or energy to help bring balance on all levels and initiate the body’s healing ability. In other words, Reiki energy goes to where healing is needed, to every level of the physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual bodies.
It has no affiliation with any religion or culture and is for all people to experience.
During a Reiki session one simply lies on a massage table, clothes on, and the practitioner channells the Universal Life Force through them and into the client, via their hands. The practitioner is simply a vessel for the Universal Life Force and the outcome of the session is dependent on the client, and how they choose to use the energy either on a conscious or subconscious level.

Children's Reiki
Reiki is a perfect way to help our children. It is one of the very beneficial ways that children can be shown how to help themselves.
Your child may have some special gifts or challenges and is often misunderstood, especially within a school setting. He/She may get singled out by their peers or teachers and so find it hard to make and keep friends, he/she may have become withdrawn or depressed. Your child may have been diagnosed with such things as Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) or Autism.
What our society fails to understand is that there is often nothing wrong with these children. Many are simply unable to cope with the way our present systems are set up. They learn differently and can often operate on many levels at once. They know when they are being lied to or manipulated. They often act out because they feel helpless in the midst of any kind of deception or betrayal. Some of these children tend to shut down because the world is just too overwhelming for their highly sensitive nature. They do not need to be fixed or drugged. What they really need is for us to see that there can be a different way to do things.
Reiki is the perfect way to reduce stress and tension which may be prevalent in your childs life. It will help him/her to relax and rejuvenate where otherwise they may not be able. It will help to bring peace and clarity into your childs life empowering them to make great decisions in what they do.
Reiki is also great for parents to help them reduce thier stress and tension whilst steering their amazing children in the right direction.
If Reiki is used in conjunction with EFT only amazing things will happen!

Reiki and Pregnancy
During pregnancy both mother and baby can benefit from regular reiki treatments. Some of the symptoms of pregnancy that mothers find hard to cope with such as sickness, anxiety, backache, excessive tiredness (to name a few) can be alleviated with Reiki.
Reiki is extremely beneficial for the first time mother who may be feeling extremely anxious about the impending birth and can help to understand the concept of becoming a mother.
Reiki and Labour/Birth
Reiki can be used as pain relief during labour and birth. It can help relieve tiredness and prolong stamina within the mother especially in the case of a long labour. Also great for woman who have had a caesarean birth and would like to try for a vaginal birth, as you are more relaxed and less anxious the birth seems to move more freely letting nature do as it was always intending.
What better environment to introduce your new born to the world than that of a place full of loving energy and emotion. I am a firm believer that babies should be born NOT delivered!!
Reiki and Post Partum Care
A lot of woman experience intense highs and lows as they adjust to life with a new born. Sleep disruption, hormonal levels, other relationships to contend with as well as trying to get on with normal life can all lead to burn out. Reiki is a wonderfully soothing and effective way to look after yourself while you continue to look after everyone else.
Infant Care
Infant care begins the moment your baby is born, imagine your baby having great vital signs but isn’t very responsive, wouldn’t it be much more gentle to let your baby get aquainted with the world through Reiki rather than the sometimes vigorous methods that are used in some hospitals.
Using Reiki on infants is a lot like caring for anyone else – anxiety, sleep problems, pain (wind, colic) all affect infants and reiki can be used with NO contraindications.
Touch promotes bonding and well being and is therefore an essential therapy for parents and babies.
Partner Support
You thought I forgot about your partner didn’t you. Well of course not. Your partner is going through a major change as well, not so much in the physical sense, but very much emotionally. Reiki is a fantastic way to treat your partner as well as yourself, helping them to make sense of all that is happening around them and so making them a better support for when the time comes.

EMOTIONAL FREEDOM TECHNIQUE (EFT)
EFT is a simple procedure based on accupuncture that gently realigns the bodys energy system. Fingers are used instead of needles to tap accupuncture points. EFT goes a step further than acupuncture by addressing the emotional components that often accompany physical issues. To use EFT we tap on these accupuncture points, while telling the body what emotion to release. As we tap, the emotion seems to break up and is released, allowing the energy to flow properly again.
When we experience negative emotions (fear, hurt, abandonment, anger, rejection etc) it causes blocks in our system. Our energy system is similar to the electrical wiring in a house. When there is a short with the wiring, the energy flow stops and something stops working. When we have a block or disruption in our energy system it stops the energy to an area (or areas) in our body and thus keeps it from working properly. EFT removes the block and frees the energy to move properly. We often accumulate energy blocks like the layers of an onion and need to "peel" the layers one at a time.
These energy blocks can cause problems like diabetes, depression, allergies, serious disease, hormonal imbalances to name a few.
To use EFT along with other modalities like Reiki really will allow you complete emotional freedom.

Children EFT session 1/2 hour $35
What is a Doula?
The term “doula” has its origins in Ancient Greece, and it refers to a woman that is trained and has experience in assisting a woman through labour. The role of a doula is to support a woman in labour, wherever she chooses to give birth – a hospital, at home, or in a birthing centre. They provide continuous physical, emotional, and educational support from when a woman is pregnant, to birth, after birth, and when the baby is brought home. It is important to note that a doula is not a midwife, nurse, or medical practitioner. They do not provide medical, nursing, midwifery or therapeutic care, nor will they comment on, interpret, or judge the care that is provided. They are there in a purely advisory and supportive capacity.
The Benefits of Having a Doula
Engaging the services of a doula can make a massive difference to your pregnancy and birth. Studies have shown that doulas can result in:
a 50 percent decrease in the need for a cesarean delivery
a 25 percent decrease in the length of labour for first time mothers
a 60 percent decrease in epidural request
a 40 percent decrease in artificial oxytocin use
a 30 percent decrease in forceps use
a decrease in the use of pain relief medications
Doulas are also able to provide
professional care and assistance at any time
access to resources and information so that people are able to make informed choices about their pregnancy, labour, and childbirth
referrals to classes such as ante natal fitness, birth preparation, lactation classes, pregnancy yoga, and also to pregnancy massage services
assistance in preparing for the birth such as creating a birth plan or a plan of action
post-natal support with breastfeeding or referral to a lactation consultant
support for the father
general support and care for the whole family when the baby is first brought home
Dads and Doulas
Many fathers wonder how a doula will affect their role during labor and birth. The aim of a doula is to strengthen and support that role, never to usurp it. No one can take the place of a loving father. The bond you have with your partner and the love that you share makes your participation in the birth of your child invaluable and unique. However, because a doula is experienced with childbirth she offers a calm objective presence that can bolster a couple’s confidence. A doulas’ job is to mother the father in much the same way she mothers the mother.
It has only been a relatively short time in human history that men have participated in the births of their children. Gone are the days when fathers paced the waiting room anxiously awaiting news of the birth of their child. Today’s fathers are often at the side of their partners offering physical support, helping in the decision making process, and most importantly doing what they do best, loving the mother. A doula can help the father in each of these areas without stepping on his toes. A doula can suggest position changes and physical comfort measures to the father; she can facilitate the communication between a couple and their caregiver by making sure all of the couple’s questions are answered; and she can assist the father in all the physical demands of labor support so that the father is better able to direct his energy towards loving and nurturing his partner.
Some fathers feel that their partner might require more physical and emotional support than they can provide. Often fathers feel uncomfortable in the role of the “birth coach”. This is perfectly healthy and normal; and by no means is it a reflection of the love a man has for his partner and baby! In these instances the addition of a doula to the birth team is perfect because she can offer an extra set of hands to enable the father to focus entirely on loving the mother and being present to witness the birth of his child. He is then free to participate at whatever level he is comfortable with.
When doulas and dads work together a laboring woman is provided for by both a confident birth professional with whom she can relate as a woman and a loving partner who is invested in her life and the life of her child. Doulas and dads make the perfect birth team!

Ear Candling
Ear candling has been used for centuries as a way of naturally cleansing the inside of the ears and head. It is a natural, non-intrusive soothing procedure that can help alleviate the painful effects of chronic headaches, sinus conditions, ear infections, allergies, fungal infections, and itchy ears. Candling gently and pleasantly removes years of built up wax, blocking the ears and harbouring bacteria and fungi, along with congested sinus and lymph fluid
The candle is put into the outer ear canal, the other end is lit thus creating a vacuum, causing a sublte suction effect. At no time does the ear come into contact with the burning end of the candle.
Disclaimer: Ear candling should not be used in place of medical diagnosis and treatment.
Ear candling usually takes 1 hour - $50
