About Reiki TherapyThe Reiki Program is up and running at the Phoenix Community Cancer Center. Reiki is an ancient Japanese hands-on relaxation technique that promotes wellness and can help reduce pain, discomfort and nausea. Sessions are available free of charge to patients undergoing treatment. During a Reiki session, a person is seated or lying down, fully clothed. Soft music is played while the Reiki practioner/volunteer places his or her hands on the person's head, shoulders, chest, abdomen, and legs. People often experience a deep sense of peace and often report reduced tension resulting in better sleep and increased energy. At the Phoenix Community Cancer Center, a Reiki room has been set up that creates a very peaceful, warm feeling with soft lighting, a massage table, beautiful pictures on the wall, a running fountain and music. Patients can treat themselves to a session weekly during their treatment and for up to eight weeks following the completion of their treatment. |
