Training at Reiki Master level is a significant step in a Reiki Practitioner's journey.  Embarking on a Reiki Master’s course is not something to be decided upon lightly. It should not be taken just to gain the title of Reiki Master. We never master Reiki it masters us. Being a Reiki Master doesn’t mean you know it all, we are all continuously learning, I don’t believe we will ever know it all.

A prerequisite for training at Reiki Master Level is that you have completed Level 1 and 2 and have been self-healing daily. You should be working regularly giving Reiki treatments to clients (or friends and family if you don’t have a Reiki business) for at least a year after your Level 2 training. A Reiki Master would be expected to have a good degree of expertise and experience in treating others. 

Training at Master level has many benefits, but it is essential to carefully consider your motivation and intention for pursuing this level of training. It’s not just about acquiring additional skills, but also embodying the principles of Reiki, and being committed to a path of lifelong continuous personal and spiritual development. Being a Reiki Master carries a greater responsibility, both in terms of personal practice and when working with clients. You should maintain high ethical standards, continue learning and be an ambassador for Reiki.

This level of training expands and strengthens your healing ability and enables you to develop your personal, professional, and spiritual potential as a qualified Reiki Master.

At Master Level practitioners learn advanced Reiki techniques and symbols that can deepen their healing abilities. Master symbols carry specific energies and meanings which can be used for healing, protection, and spiritual development.

The Reiki Master attunement received at this level opens and aligns your energy channels, allowing for a stronger more refined flow of Reiki energy. 

Level 3a Reiki Master Practitioner

The Reiki Master Practitioner course is for those who want to move forward with their practice and commitment to Reiki at Master Level but do not wish to teach at this stage. A minimum of one year of experience of treating others is needed before taking this course.
