The clinic is a place where mums and children of all ages including babies can come and experience reiki and ask any questions related to reiki and healing.
Reiki is an ancient Japanese art of healing through working on the aura and the chakras. It benefits in particular babies, children and pregnant women but of course also animals, plants and any living thing. It has no side effects and you cannot get enough reiki. A child minder has been hired to look after children if Mums want to have a treatment with peace of mind. Donations are welcome to cover for this expense.
The ladies of light also runs a mind body spirit library that can be joined for a fee. Also available for £10 each CDs for reiki self treatment and relaxation, slimming, pregnancy and labour, quit smoking, confidence, revisions and exams, and a specific one for children including three lovely meditations. CDs can also be ordered by post with a £2.50 fee for p&p.
