“The longer you’ve played, the longer it takes for your body to recover, and the more I think you need extra assistance, more things helping you recover. A lot of guys get massages, a lot of guys get acupuncture…I think guys should start adding Reiki to that.”

DURING A SESSION
During the session, the person being treated is fully clothed and lies comfortably on a massage table. The session begins with the practitioner placing his/her hands over strategic body positions designed to direct the flow of energy to the joints, energy centers and associated organ and endocrine systems of the body.
​
A Reiki session lasts 30-75 minutes where the recipient typically enters a deep, relaxed state. This allows for the body to come into the rest and repair state that is very beneficial for the athlete.
