Jikiden Reiki

What is Jikiden Reiki?

Jikiden Reiki is a traditional, Japanese form of Reiki that has been passed down without alteration. "Jikiden" means "directly taught" or "directly passed on" in Japanese. This form of Reiki is preserved in its original simplicity, just as it was taught by Chujiro Hayashi to Chiyoko Yamaguchi and her family. The Jikiden Reiki Institute, founded in Japan by Chiyoko Yamaguchi and her son Tadao Yamaguchi, ensures the purity of the practice by maintaining the exact format used in its original teachings.

Unlike Western forms of Reiki that stem from the lineage of Hawayo Takata, Jikiden Reiki retains its deep connection to Japanese culture, history, and healing philosophy. It emphasizes practical treatments and the use of Reiki for physical, emotional, and psychological wellness in its most authentic form.

Reiki Treatments – Physical Healing

Jikiden Reiki treatments are gentle, hands-on sessions that facilitate the flow of Reiki energy through the practitioner’s hands into the recipient’s body. Treatments are noninvasive, non-manipulative, and deeply relaxing. Clients remain fully clothed, and no oils or substances are applied.

During a session, the practitioner places their hands on key areas including the head, face, upper body, back, feet, and any specific areas of concern. Reiki can be applied through clothing, bedding, casts, and bandages. Sessions typically last between 60 and 90 minutes.

Practitioners follow the concept of Byosen, using subtle hand sensations to locate areas of the body needing the most healing. While some conditions respond to just a few treatments, chronic or deeply rooted issues may benefit from a longer series of sessions. Reiki complements both Western medicine and other holistic approaches.

Benefits of Physical Treatments Include:

  • Pain relief

  • Accelerated healing

  • Deep relaxation

  • Emotional release

  • Improved sleep

  • Revitalization

Clients often describe feelings of warmth, tingling, comfort, and emotional peace during sessions.

Mental, Emotional & Psychological Healing

Jikiden Reiki also offers powerful support for emotional and psychological well-being. These treatments can be deeply beneficial for addressing:

  • Stress and anxiety

  • Depression

  • Addictions

  • Trauma

  • Fears and phobias

Treatments may range from 20 to 90 minutes and can be done in person or remotely. These sessions are often integrated with physical treatments, creating a holistic and nurturing healing experience.

While results vary by individual, even long-term emotional issues may begin to shift with consistent treatment. This modality supports the body and mind in gently releasing patterns that no longer serve.

Session Rates

In-Person Reiki Healing Session

60–90 minutes | Sliding scale: $90–$110


Held in a peaceful, sacred space, these sessions support deep healing on the physical, emotional, and energetic levels. Using the traditional Japanese method of Jikiden Reiki, I follow intuitive guidance and Byosen (energetic feedback) to focus where your body and spirit need it most.


Please choose the rate that feels aligned and sustainable for you within the sliding scale.

 Distance Reiki Healing Session

Distance sessions are equally powerful and often deeply relaxing. You can rest quietly at home while receiving the energy, or simply go about your day knowing Reiki will meet you where you are. If desired, I’ll share intuitive reflections or impressions after your session via email.

A Note on Accessibility

Healing is sacred and should be accessible. I occasionally offer community sessions or pay-what-you-can options. If you’re experiencing financial hardship, please reach out — we’ll find a way together.

🐾 Animal Reiki (Volunteer Offering)

In addition to offering Jikiden Reiki for people, I am currently training in Animal Reiki, a gentle, non-invasive method of energy healing that supports animals experiencing stress, injury, illness, or transition.

As part of my training and devotion to animal well-being, I offer Animal Reiki sessions on a volunteer basis — free of charge — for pets and animal companions in need of energetic support. Reiki for animals is always offered with consent and respect, and sessions are held in-person when possible or sent distantly with follow-up communication.

If you have an animal in your life that could benefit from Reiki, please reach out. It would be an honor to support their healing journey.
