Reiki Healing
I have had extensive experience in a hospice with the elderly and infirm. I can offer gentle shoulder and back masssage - if the patient is uncomfortable with this for physical reasons, there is foot, leg, arm, head, neck and face massage.
Improve your health the Tibetan way, whether it’s pain, injury, stress, anxiety or insomnia, Ildiko has a treatment to help you limit the impact of these conditions on your quality of life.
Massage is considered to be one of the most important external therapies. Not only does it contribute to the wellbeing of the patient, but it can also be an excellent therapeutic support and help to treat minor disorders. Massage is an ancient therapy mentioned in the very first texts of Tibetan medicine dating back over 4,000 years.
Tibetan Massage is a holistic treatment, which includes energetic, meridian, lymphatic, anti-cellulite, detoxing and refreshing aspects.
Reiki brings peace and calm with the healing power of touch.
The growing numbers of seniors who have tried Reiki respond quickly to it – most seniors become enthusiastic about the treatment after only one session. Reiki helps chemotherapy patients relax, for example, or feel more comfortable after a surgical procedure. The healing power of touch brings the warmth of Reiki energy into stiff shoulders or sore feet, even for seniors who are normally sensitive to touch.
Most seniors enjoy Reiki and look forward to sessions – the dim lights, soothing music and comfortable atmosphere are appealing. Some seniors say they feel the benefits of Reiki immediately after a session while others say it takes a few days for the therapeutic effects to appear. A handful of seniors say they feel no benefit, but their family members and caretakers can notice improvements in the individual’s physical appearance or mood.
Depending on the individual’s mindset and physical condition, seniors may benefit from short Reiki sessions at first then move into full 60-minute sessions as their body learns how to open itself and accept treatment.
Reiki helps to bring peace and calm to an advanced senior’s or elder’s world, sometimes filled with pain, disability, foggy memory, never-ending doctor appointments, and other problems that make even the smallest activity of daily living seem like a monumental challenge. These challenges have a profoundly disruptive effect on the flow of the older adult’s life force energy and, left unaddressed, can even exacerbate illness and dysfunction. The Reiki technique helps to reestablish proper energy flow to improve health and wellbeing of older adults.
Benefits of Reiki for Seniors and Elderly Care:
Reiki helps loosen muscle tension, stimulates circulation, and soothes the nervous system. Seniors respond to Reiki because of the way it relieves pain from tight muscles, increases range of motion in arthritic or stiff joints, and even improves coordination to reduce the risk for falls and fall-related injuries. Reiki can speed healing from injuries and surgery, ease breathing, boost vitality, and rejuvenate energy and mental alertness.
This complementary therapy can provide benefits in ways seniors may not expect but certainly appreciate, including relief from itchy and dry skin, a more restful sleep, increased vitality, and mental alertness. Reiki can even foster a sense of contentment that can seem out of reach for seniors, especially those who struggle with serious health issues, chronic illnesses, depression, and mental health problems.
