Reiki & Tattooing:
Chel uses her study and practice of Reiki during her tattoo sessions to help clients relax, minimise pain and heal beautifully with their new art. The use of Reiki throughout a session creates a sensation of calm, release of negative emotions or blockages and promotes a balanced, clear and vibrant energy environment from which to heal.
Longer sessions can be made with a separate Reiki healing at the end of a tattoo session. This method of healing allows you to wrap up your session with a Reiki treatment and meditation, instead of having it infused into your tattoo sitting.
Chel also offers intuitive design based off an initial Reiki session or meditation. In these sessions you will be taken on a sensory journey through your energy field, together you and Chel will shape a tattoo design based on your experience. Energy artwork is also available from this process.

What is Reiki?
A Brief Overview
Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen life force energy flows through us and is what causes us to be alive, extra to our physical being. If one's life force energy is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.
The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means Universal or Higher Power/Energy (from positive higher forces outside of our own, you may call it the Universe, God/Angels, Gaia etc) and Ki which is life force energy (from your own personal energy). So Reiki is actually close in English to "spiritually guided life force energy."
A treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit. This creates many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing. Many have reported miraculous results.
Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use. It has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and malady and always creates a beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery.
An amazingly simple technique to learn, the ability to use Reiki is not taught in the usual sense, but is transferred to the student during a Reiki class. This ability is passed on during an "attunement" given by a Reiki master and allows the student to tap into an unlimited supply of life force energy to improve one's health and enhance the quality of life.
Its use is not dependent on one's intellectual capacity or spiritual development and therefore is available to everyone. It has been successfully taught to thousands of people of all ages and backgrounds.
While Reiki is spiritual in nature, it is not a religion. It has no dogma, and there is nothing you must believe in order to learn and use Reiki. In fact, Reiki is not dependent on belief at all and will work whether you believe in it or not. Because Reiki comes from The Universe/God/Gaia, many people find that using Reiki puts them more in touch with the experience of their own religion rather than having only an intellectual concept of it.
While Reiki is not a religion, it is still important to live and act in a way that promotes harmony with others. Mikao Usui, the founder of the Reiki system of natural healing, recommended that One practice certain simple ethical ideals to promote peace and harmony, which are nearly universal across all cultures.
The Reiki Principles:
The secret art of inviting happiness
The miraculous medicine of all diseases
Just for today, do not anger
Do not worry and be filled with gratitude
Devote yourself to your work. Be kind to people.
- The founder, Usui Mikao
