Reiki Respite in Barnsley - Reiki, stress management, life coaching, hypnotherapy and holistic healthcare massage

Maggie Irwin of Reiki Respite offers clients in and around Barnsley a complementary and holistic approach to improving physical and emotional health using a variety of complementary therapies.

The treatments take place in an informal and relaxed atmosphere at Maggie's home in Barnsley - and her support and encouragement combined with a range of complementary therapies have helped many clients find health and wellbeing.

What is Reiki?

Reiki is a gentle, yet powerful hands on complementary therapy. There is no manipulation and it is completely non-invasive - but it can help with a variety of health problems, easing pain and calming heightened emotional states of mind such as anxiety and panic attacks.

It has been described as a form of universal life energy which is channelled through the complementary therapist's hands to the recipient. It certainly helps to harmonise body, mind and spirit.

A Reiki session is extremely relaxing and soothing - the energy flows wherever it is required and is felt as a warm sensation or tingling. It can only be received as something positive and can have beneficial results on many ailments, such as:

• Anxiety and panic attacks 
• Depression 
• Insomnia 
• Cancer 
• Digestive problems 
• Nervous tension 
• Respiratory problems 
• Poor circulation. 

Reiki can also strengthen the immune system, enhance personal awareness and release blocked and suppressed feelings.

Tera-Mai™ Reiki & Seichem

Reiki is a Japanese word meaning 'Universal Life Force Energy'. It is an ancient system that is thought to have originated in Japan in the late 1800's.

Tera Mai™ Reiki & Seichem is an expanded form of Reiki. With Reiki, I work with the earth element. With Seichem I can also work with the energies connected with fire, water, air and ether, therefore using a larger and more complete energy system.

Tera-Mai™ Reiki is often used for self-healing, emotional healing and distant healing and can heal and protect with positive benefits to your health and wellbeing.

Stress management

At Reiki Respite in Barnsley, we use meditation and relaxation to aid healing. Meditation and relaxation techniques are the product of diverse cultures and peoples around the world - and indeed are rooted in the tradition of the world's great religions.

Mindfulness meditation, autogenics, progressive relaxation and stretching can all aid stress management. Meditation can help you to let go of all sensory input and find complete relaxation.

Stress management techniques are beneficial to health and can aid asthma, relieve insomnia and generally help you to cope with the stresses of everyday life. Meditation is a safe way to balance your physical, emotional and mental state.

Stress management with Reiki Respite can involve the following techniques:

• Massage therapy - manipulating skin, muscles and ligaments to relieve muscle tension 
• Progressive muscular relaxation - tensing then relaxing the body's muscle groups to decrease muscle tension 
• Autogenic training - a relaxation technique which uses vasodilatation to specified body regions 
• Mental imagery - using the imagination to create images that replicate peaceful scenes and replace less desirable behaviours with more healthy ones 
• Visualisation - consciously creating images of success, healing or relaxation.

"After three sessions of Reiki with Maggie, I was pleasantly surprised. After having pain in my neck for years, I have not experienced that pain for several months now."

Mick Salter, Wombwell, Barnsley.

Hypnotherapy

Maggie Irwin is a fully qualified Clinical and Therapeutic Hypnotherapist and a member of the Clinical and Therapeutic Hypnosis Association

Hypnosis relaxes the conscious thinking part of our mind and makes the unconscious part more accessible. Within this lightly altered state a client can receive 'positive suggestions' to modify behavioural habits.

Hypnotherapy can be used to help with many problems or habits which an individual may wish to address including:

• Smoking
• Interview nerves
• Panic attacks
• Fears and Phobias
• Depression
• Insomnia
• Low self esteem
• Stress related ailments

The number of sessions required will vary for different people and different conditions but the objective is to bring to a client a moment of enlightenment to bring about lasting release from symptoms and to enable them to clarify and achieve goals in order to move forward.

Hypnotherapy can often help a client overcome phobias, detrimental habits and a life long unexplained pain.

Maggie has put together a list of frequently asked question and her response to explain more about Hypnosis and its potential benefits to health and wellbeing.
