Client Information & Hold Harmless Waiver

REIKI

I do not make any promises or guarantees regarding the healing success of the sessions.

No diagnoses or treatments of specific health issues are conducted. I do not prescribe or administer medications. Continuation of existing medical treatments, as well as the ongoing use of medications prescribed by medical doctors and/or alternative practitioners, is explicitly recommended. The client is solely responsible for their health condition and medical care, as well as its continuation. The offerings aim to stimulate the body's self-healing powers and promote spiritual development.

Reiki serves to activate the self-healing powers and does not replace a diagnosis or treatment by a physician or alternative practitioner. No diagnoses, therapies, or medical treatments are conducted, nor is any form of healing in the legal sense practiced. The Reiki practitioner is not required to have any medical knowledge or skills, as no medical or alternative treatment is performed.

The sessions cannot replace medical treatment or treatments by alternative practitioners. The Reiki practitioner considers collaboration with doctors, alternative practitioners, and other therapists to be very important. Therefore, ongoing treatment should not be interrupted or discontinued, nor should any future necessary treatment be postponed or completely omitted. The responsibility for decisions rests entirely with the client.

No promises are made to the client that healing will occur. It is their free responsibility and choice to continue or discontinue visits with the Reiki practitioner. Before a session, the client is informed about what to expect during the sessions, as well as how the fees are structured and calculated. Reiki is not a medical treatment and does not heal specific symptoms or replace medication or similar medical therapies. Nevertheless, many report "miraculous healings" and sudden changes in well-being after just one session. I advise my clients to let go of any expectations regarding outcomes and to give the frequencies space to work.

Legal Framework for Spiritual Healing in Germany

With the landmark decision of the Federal Constitutional Court in 2004, it was clearly established that healers are allowed to practice, and that no alternative practitioner license is required for practicing spiritual healing. The Alternative Practitioner Act does not apply to healers, as they fundamentally differ in their methods of treatment, such as through laying on of hands, which aims to activate the client's self-healing powers, from doctors and alternative practitioners in terms of practice and appearance. Healers do not make diagnoses.
