My Code Of Ethics

 

MY PROMISE TO YOU:

 

As an ethical, professional Reiki Master, I promise I will treat all healing sessions as an honor and a privilege that are taken very seriously. As your Reiki healer, I will serve your best interests without causing or intending to harm. I will be open-minded, honest, and non-judgmental. My goal is to use Reiki to help empower you to take charge and make your own path in life.

 

THE CODE:

1. The health and well-being of the client/student is my prime consideration.

​

2. The client is entitled to truth, confidentiality, and the respect of their human dignity.

​

3. The client has the right to accept or refuse any form of treatment.

​

4. I will not refuse a client on the basis of sex, race, religion, sexual orientation, or political belief. However, notwithstanding this clause, I reserve the right to refuse a client for reasons of personal safety and/or other reasons, which do not contravene the aforementioned item.

​

5. I will retain accurate and up-to-date records on my dealings with my clients. These records will be maintained in a secure location and are considered confidential. No information contained within the records will be released without the written consent of the client.*

​

6. I will dress in a professional manner conducive to the holistic service being provided and be neat and clean in my own personal hygiene.

​

7. I will ensure that my professional conduct is beyond reproach. I will not take physical, sexual, psychological or financial advantage of the client. I will not interfere in the client's personal affairs.

​

8. I will not practice or teach Reiki if I am in any condition, which compromises the quality of their services, such as inebriation, or if my mental faculties are lessened for any reason whatsoever and I shall never offer liquor to my clients.

​

9. I will never ask a client to disrobe and will not allow such action to take place, nor will I touch the genital area or anal area or the breasts or areola of my clients, nor will the client be allowed to touch me in such a manner.

​

10. When the client has given permission for “hands on” therapy, I shall use light hand pressure when placing hands on the client’s body. There will never be a need to rub or manipulate of any body part. If the client has not given permission for “hands on” therapy, I will complete the entire Reiki session with hands above the body at all times.

​

11. I will not refuse or withdraw services without justifiable cause. Such reasons include but are not limited to conflict of interest between myself and a client that jeopardizes the professional relationship or illegal or unjust or fraudulent actions taken or proposed by the client.

​

12. It recognize my limits of competence and will not undertake issues for which I have no training. I will not claim that Reiki can cure, nor will I diagnose any medical problems or prescribe, nor will I ever advise a client to stop taking medications, unless qualified to do so. When it is in the client's interests, I will refer them on to another practitioner or organization that has the training appropriate to their needs.

​

13. I continually make an effort to improve my knowledge and professional skills. I will also encourage you to become educated and informed about the practice and teaching of Reiki and about the development of a health-enhancing lifestyle in general.

​

17. I acknowledge that a code of ethics cannot cover every case of what is ethical and what is not. Therefore, it is understood that I must behave in accordance with the ethical standards of the province and country in which I reside.

​

CONFIDENTIALITY:

*All information shared or discussed during readings will remain confidential unless otherwise requested by the client or required by law or court order.
