Reiki Drumming is a specialized method of introducing Reiki energy into a client’s energy field to facilitate deep relaxation and stress relief. As stress is relieved, tensions in the physical body are often released as well.

 

Biofeedback research indicates that even brief heartbeat drumming can double light meditative brainwaves (alpha) and reduce stress. We now know that stress depresses the immune system and has been linked to nearly all diseases.

COMBINING REIKI ENERGY AND SACRED DRUMMING

The perfect marriage, sound and light, utilizing the age-old power of the drumbeat with the beautiful high-frequency energy of Reiki - as a therapy, Reiki Drumming combines the strengths of lots of different healing modalities: sound healing, Reiki energy, shamanic journeying techniques, meditations, chakra balancing, affirmation work and NLP.  

 

The Reiki community has also found the drum a powerful tool for enhancing the effects of Reiki energy. As we change our energetic makeup as a species, more and more people are becoming receptive to healing modalities that use subtle healing energies and sound. The Reiki Drum is effective, sacred, and joyous regarding its healing attributes. 

 

Reiki Drum Healing comprises three core healing methods, each distinct and used for separate purposes. Students and clients who have tried shamanic drumming before experiencing a Reiki Drum session say the higher-frequency energies of Reiki Drumming make for a more gentle, ethereal experience, albeit no less powerful on a therapeutic and healing level. 

 

Reiki Drum Healing involves the practitioner drumming over the client while focusing their intent to allow the drum’s sound waves to carry Reiki into the client’s energy field.  Regular hands-on Reiki follows the drumming.  Clients find the drum beat helps them switch off more easily and drift into a deep state of relaxation, with all the expected benefits of a traditional Reiki treatment, albeit on a much deeper level.  Clients report feeling like the healing Reiki energy reaches deep inside their bodies. 

 

​

Reiki Drumming can treat negative habits or natural tendencies, focus the mind on something important, or achieve a goal.  Drumming facilitates the energetic shift needed to positively affect the subconscious mind.  The client focuses on the issue in question and repeats positive affirmations while the practitioner gently drums over them.  Reiki again follows the drumming for integration.  The repetitive beat of the drum helps people focus on their particular issue, reaching deep into their subconscious mind and preventing their thoughts from straying, thus reinforcing the positive messages.  The mental/emotional reprogramming technique offers its best results if the client can have a series of treatments.

 

The Reiki Drum Journey helps to facilitate altered consciousness so that the client can access information for change in any area of their life.  It can be used to heal personal issues, address career concerns, and resolve relationship problems, as well as to access the client’s inner wisdom and tune into spiritual guidance.  It can be exceptionally empowering and healing on all levels.  Clients have many different experiences.  Some drift into a relaxed state, others see beautiful colours or feel energy pulsating through their body, and many have profound visual and auditory experiences, allowing them deep personal insight.  Some fall asleep, feeling refreshed on awakening and receiving spontaneous, intuitive messages over the next few days.  

 

Energy Healing, Shamanic Practices and Sound Healing are our birthright.  Reiki is fairly mainstream nowadays and practised in hospitals, hospices, and many other institutions.  With the addition of sound and shamanic practices, such as Reiki Drumming, we are opening the Reiki community (and, therefore, the general community at large) to this birthright and bringing these practices back into the mainstream. 

Practically speaking, there are many physical and mental conditions which Reiki Drumming benefits.


Modern scientific studies support what tribal peoples have long known: that drumming for healing can be highly effective. Biofeedback research has shown that drumming can bring the brain into the alpha state (as with meditation), thereby reducing stress. As we know, stress can impact our physical and emotional well-being in many ways, triggering illness and creating tension.

 

Drumming has been linked to immune levels. 

​

Reiki Drumming can also benefit conditions where neurological damage has occurred, as drumming is beneficial in promoting these connections in the brain, for example, in Parkinson's disease and stroke sufferers.

 

Research has also demonstrated that drumming can increase the body's own painkillers and endogenous opiates, meaning that it is a natural form of pain relief. This works on even chronic pain conditions. To date, drumming has benefited the following conditions: cancer, Alzheimer's, Dementia, Stress, Fatigue, Anxiety, Asthma, MS, and Paralysis.


Reiki drums also help with emotional and mental health. Drumming positively influences our brainwaves by taking us into an alpha state (the same as meditation, a state of relaxation, or before sleep) and then into theta (a deeper trance state or during REM sleep). The following conditions have all been shown to benefit from Reiki Drumming: ADD, recovery from emotional trauma, recovery from Alcoholism or drug addiction and other issues relating to self-esteem and autism, as well as helping troubled teenagers.
