Bodywork Counseling
Bodywork counseling combines Reiki with principles and techniques drawn from Process Work and Existential Psychology, hypnotherapy and shamanism. It is an integration of verbal therapy within the context of a Reiki session where the practitioner follows the movements and direction of the client vs. expertise of the practitioner, based on the impressions and insights that arise as the client tunes into their body during the session.
This is a powerful modality which allows the client to go deeply into parts of their body, allowing focus and intention to be brought to these parts where chronic resistance exists. The combination of using Reiki and encouraging the client to share the thoughts, visual images, stories and connections can create profound shift with issues that may not have responded to other treatments, for example, talk therapy alone.
This modality was developed by Eileen Wurst. You can visit The Reiki Training Program for details of her teaching and healing practice.
