Reiki for  Autism

I work with children from as young as 5 years to older children who are autistic to help relax their nervous system and balance them.

​

As these children can feel different on a given day, I adapt the sessions according to the child's needs on the day. Sessions are very informal and I find different ways to connect to the child on the day. It is amazing to see how these children are very receptive to the Reiki energy and feel very calm and centred when they leave.

​

Some of the benefits experienced by these children include-

  • Relaxation and Anxiety Reduction: Children who are autistic can have  heightened anxiety and stress due to sensory overload or difficulties with routine changes. Reiki's calming effects will help them to relax and reduce feelings of anxiety and hyperactivity.

  • Supporting Sensory Integration: As Reiki helps them to relax, calm the sensory overload, get balanced , it can help  individuals experiencing sensory processing challenges.

  • Potential for Improved Social Interaction: The unique way in which children with autism connect with me during sessions can offer a different avenue for connection and potential for growth in social interactions.

  • Enhanced Emotional Self-Regulation: Through regular Reiki sessions, children with autism may become more aware of their own energy and emotions, potentially improving their ability to self-regulate and manage emotional states
