Reiki
Reiki is a type of healing described as a universal energy force. You will remain fully clothed and will normally lie down or sit in a comfortable position. Your practitioner will then lay their hands on or near you placing the hands in a number of positions and patterns as they feel appropriate. This gentle approach can help when dealing with the emotional feelings that surround hair loss and help to relieve tension and anxiety. You can also ask your practitioner to focus on your hair and scalp or any feelings you have in this area.
Reiki is becoming more and more popular in cancer units as a therapy to help with all kinds of issues related to cancer. Prices normally start from around £15.00 upwards and sessions are from 30 minutes to 1 hour depending on what is appropriate.
Reiki is a lovely and gentle introduction to alternative treatments and is suitable for almost any one who would like to try it.
“A friend suggested that I try Reiki to help me feel better about my hair loss. I had a good cry during my treatment, but then felt like I had let something go and had a really nice calm feeling” Lisa, 61 Hertfordshire
