It depends. Your energetic body will determine what needs healing but Reiki has been known to help with anxiety, stress, guilt, headaches, body aches and pains, digestion, insomnia, and chronic illness, among others. Again, your body will decide what is needed and where it is needed.

No. You and I will not speak during the session unless there is something that needs tending to. After the session is complete, you and I will discuss your and my experience, at which time you can ask questions.

No. Reiki is nothing like a massage because physical contact is not required for Reiki.

We are all made up of that same life force energy. However, I have received an attunement from a Reiki Master, which deepened my energetic system. This allows me to be a greater conduit for energy, and thereby connect your life force energy to the greater life force energy, wherever you are located.  

It depends. In general, a consistent Reiki practice is the most beneficial, which can be weekly or bi-monthly. If there are substantial energetic blocks, more sessions may be required to work through each block. Ultimately, you and your body will know what you need.     

It varies. Some people will observe colors or images during their session, while others can become so relaxed and calm that they fall asleep. Other common sensations are tingling, stomach rumbling, and cold or hot sensations in the body.

Reiki is an ancient practice with roots in Tibetan Buddhism but, it wasn't until the late 1800's that Reiki was advanced by Dr. Mikao Usui as a method to heal oneself and others. Dr. Usui's teachings were enhanced by Chujiro Hayashi in Japan and then brought to the United States by Hawayo Takata, and these combined teachings are what the western world know as Usui Reiki. 

Reiki specific hand positions cover the front and back of the body, but are not used on any personal areas of the body. All hand positions can be performed with or without physical contact. Any physical contact is light and static, but is, again, not required for Reiki. The hand positions are intended to align with your seven major chakras, and are thus at or near each of your chakras.
