Sarah Najjar, Reiki Master Teacher and practitioner has supporting residents of Pasco Vale with Reiki treatment since 2009. She has two practices, one is based in Northcote, the other is in Reservoir.
What is Reiki treatment and how can it help you?
Reiki is a holistic system of natural healing that helps you to feel better by balancing your system on all levels:
– physically
– mentally
– emotionally
– spiritually.
Three ways Reiki helps you to feel better:
Reiki treatment support auto-immune conditions
Autoimmune conditions can start when the immune system isn’t working effectively. Your immune system is responsible for protecting you from harmful viruses and bacteria. However, sometimes, the immune system can’t distinguish between foreign pathogens and the body’s own tissues. When this happens, the immune system can attack it’s own tissues, leading to the development of an autoimmune condition.
Examples of autoimmune conditions are:
- Hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid)
- Grave’s disease (overactive thyroid)
- Multiple sclerosis
- Inflammatory bowel disease and
- Rheumatoid arthritis.
In many cases, these conditions are managed with medication. However, Reiki can also help to manage symptoms and you might find that you don’t need as much medication. Reiki relaxes the central nervous system. When the central nervous system is relaxed, healing takes place as well. Part of healing is a reduction in symptoms such as pain and inflammation. A greater number of participants could be used in this study where Reiki was found to reduce pain in patients with rheumatoid arthritis but it’s a start.
Reiki treatment reduces peri-menopausal and menopausal symptoms
Reiki can support you if you’re experiencing peri-menopause or menopausal signs such as:
- depression
- anxiety
- headaches
- hot flushes
- night sweats
- fatigue
- low libido
Reiki relaxes the central nervous system. The central nervous system and the endocrine system are strongly connected. The endocrine system is responsible for the secretion of hormones throughout the body. Reiki creates balance. Part of the balancing effect of Reiki treatment is balancing the central nervous system which then regulates the endocrine system. In this study Reiki helped to support menopausal women. You can receive Reiki treatment in conjunction with, or without, hormone replacement therapy so your experience of peri-menopause and menopause is more manageable.
Reiki treatment supports burnout
Are you:
- overwhelmed
- exhausted
- unmotivated
- sleep deprived and
- experiencing general aches and pains.
Have you been experiencing these symptoms over time? If so, you could be experiencing burnout. Burnout is often associated with an increased workload, however you can also experience burnout as a carer or new parent. Studies show that Reiki treatment can help. Reiki can restore your system so you experience:
- better energy levels
- better sleep
- and less pain joint and muscular pain.

“I’ve been seeing Sarah for Reiki for over 5 years. During lockdown, we moved to online sessions and they are just as amazing as her in person sessions. Her style is nurturing and supportive. She takes care so you’re relaxed and comfortable both before and after Reiki takes place. I turn to Reiki with Sarah to help manage depression and anxiety and to give me energy when I’m drained. I highly recommend Sarah’s amazing Reiki service.”

Distant Reiki via telephone or online is also available. Distant Reiki is as beneficial as in-person Reiki. Distant Reiki allows you to be supported when we are physically separated from each other. Although we are in different suburbs I can still help restore you to balance. Are you intrigued? Sarah was as well.
