Receiving HealingThere is also the opportunity  to receive Reiki at Tollcross Healing Room in Tollcross  community centre on Thursday evenings 6-8:30pm. Basically it is drop-in so all  you have to do is turn up, pay a small donation and wait your turn! It can be  popular so don’t plan a busy evening. A massage therapist is often there too  doing on-site massage. Many of us from ChillOut go there regularly if you want  to have a chat about Reiki or attunements.

Retreats in Roslin Castle: We go on a retreat to Roslin (Rosslyn) Castle, near Edinburgh, once or twice a year, spending time getting to know each other, sharing good food, relaxing, having fun, playing games, practicing massage, healing each other and enjoying a family/community atmosphere which many students miss at university. Places are limited due to the size of the accommodation.

 
Indian Head Massage is a beautiful, relaxing form of massage based on old Ayurvedic techniques involving work on the upper back, shoulders, neck, scalp and face.
Indian Head Massage is used by practitioners to help reduce stress and fatigue, increase mental clarity, and relax and rejuvenate the receiver. A treatment will last between 20 minutes to one hour.

Massage courses and activities run by the ChillOut Society.

HistoryReiki is a very ancient practice, reintroduced by Dr. Mikao Usui in mid  1800’s. Reiki in Japanese means universal Life Force Energy. It is made of two  parts, ‘Rei’— meaning universal, transcendental spirit, and ‘Ki’— meaning energy  or power.
