​Autism, Asperger's, ADD, ADHD

​​​Reiki and EFT (Tapping) are invaluable tools for helping all children with the stresses of school and life choices. These tools will help to empower children and guide them to their highest potential.

Reiki can be used at school for improving the child's concentration in the class or at home while doing their homework, dealing with stressful social interactions, test anxiety, and for taking care of minor injuries from sports and other after‑school activities. The calm state of mind induced during deeply relaxing Reiki treatments facilitates better overall health on the mental and emotional levels, as it reduces stress, relieves headaches, calms anxiety and panic attacks and lessens depression.

EFT/Tapping is a powerful tool that can be used to improve life for children on multiple levels: mental, emotional and physical. It has proven to effectively address issues such as anxiety, stress relief, anger, addiction, chronic pain, fear, trauma, weight control, PTSD and much more. It's also a very easy practice to learn. Tapping works based on the principles of ancient acupressure and modern psychology. Tapping concentrates on specific meridian endpoints while focusing on negative emotions or physical pain. Combined with spoken phrases, tapping helps calm the nervous system to restore the balance of energy in the body and rewire the brain to respond in healthy ways.

Teachers who fill the classroom with Reiki energy or who have used Tapping with students have reported improvement in children with the following:

- Behavioral problems - Anger or frustration

- Anxiety - Low confidence or shyness

Special Needs Children:

​Reiki is not a cure for Autism/Asperger's, but it can help with some of the side- issues that autistic children face such as:

- relaxation - anxiety - stress - tight muscles

- sleep issues - and with a few treatments, even some behavioral changes are often noted.

Reiki is a soothing, holistic treatment for children with Autism, Asperger's ADD/ADHD and related issues. It can be done without even touching the child, as often they may be touch sensitive, stranger-shy, or hyperactive.

While Reiki is recognized as a hands-on therapy, getting an autistic child to sit quietly for a traditional treatment can be impractical, so Reiki can be offered from nearby as the child plays. This is particularly important as autistic children are often averse to touch, are sensory sensitive or have elements of hyperactivity woven into their complex behaviors.

Part of the difficulty with autism is the intense anxiety – worry over social communication, anxiety during transitions, anxiety when dealing with changes of the smallest degree. Reiki can help to calm the fears of these very-anxious souls. Because Reiki is balancing, it can be of benefit regardless of the cause, and can provide soothing moments for teachers, parents and kids alike. Reiki helps children get rid of fear, worry and lack of interest.

Reiki can work without getting in the way of conventional or other alternative treatments prescribed by a medical doctor or naturopath and is a wonderful addition to an overall health plan.

I would welcome an opportunity to teach you Reiki and / or EFT/Tapping individually or in a group with other teachers and parents. I'm also available to present the benefits of these tools to your school staff and parent council.

If you prefer to book a treatment for yourself or child, please contact me to book an appointment.
