If you are looking for Reiki Master reviews and considering taking the next step in your Reiki journey, congratulations. The chances are that you have already completed your Reiki Level 1 and Reiki Level 2 training and are now wondering whether Reiki Master is right for you.
Fewer people continue through each stage of Reiki training to Master level, so reaching the point where you are considering becoming a Reiki Master is something to celebrate.
For some students, Reiki Master is the natural continuation of their spiritual journey or something they simply feel called to do. Others want to deepen their Reiki knowledge, teach Reiki to a loved one or perhaps teach Reiki professionally in the future. Whatever has brought you here, your reason for continuing your Reiki journey is personal to you.
I have been teaching Reiki here in Culcheth, Warrington, Cheshire, near Manchester, for over a decade and have taught Reiki students, Reiki therapists and Reiki Masters from across the North West. Students have travelled to Culcheth Healing from Warrington, St Helens, Wigan, Widnes, Manchester, Chorley and across the North West, with some travelling even further.
Not All Reiki Master Qualifications Are the Same
This is particularly important when choosing your Reiki Master training. Some Reiki Master qualifications do not also qualify you to teach Reiki. This can mean that if you decide in the future that you would like to teach Reiki and attune others, you may need to undertake separate Reiki Teacher training.
My Reiki Master training includes the Reiki Master Teacher qualification, giving you the option to teach Reiki in the future if you choose to. You don’t have to become a Reiki teacher. You don’t even have to work professionally as a Reiki therapist. For many students, becoming a Reiki Master is simply the next stage of their own personal and spiritual Reiki journey.
Your Reiki Master Qualification and Reiki Heritage
Before Reiki accreditations became more widely available, an important part of understanding someone’s Reiki training was their Reiki lineage.
A traditional Usui Reiki lineage shows the line of Reiki Masters and teachers through which the teaching and attunements have been passed, tracing that training back to Mikao Usui, the founder of the Usui system of Reiki in Japan.
Today, all my Reiki qualifications are accredited by IPHM. I am also an Usui-trained Reiki Master Teacher, with my own Reiki training lineage traceable back to Mikao Usui. Because of this, your Reiki Master certificate can also include the special words:
“Attunement and training in the Usui Natural Healing in accordance with the Usui Shiki Ryoho tradition.”
For me, those words mean something special. Alongside gaining your accredited Reiki Master Teacher qualification, you become another link in the Reiki heritage that has been passed from teacher to student through generations.
What You are Guaranteed from Your Reiki Master Training
When you train with me, you are guaranteed:
- An IPHM-accredited Reiki Master Teacher qualification
- Usui Reiki training with a traceable Reiki lineage
- To be trained by an experienced Reiki Master Teacher who has been teaching Reiki for over a decade
- To receive training from a teacher who is a leading Cheshire Reiki teacher and North West Reiki expert, who has featured in the UK and Australia on Reiki and other spiritual topics
- To be taught by a Reiki Master Teacher who has also over 10 years experience working professionally as a Reiki therapist and running a successful Reiki practice.
- To receive your Reiki Master attunement and discover the sacred Reiki Master symbol and how to use it
The practical experience of your Reiki Master teacher matters. Books can give us knowledge, but they cannot give us years of experience working with real people. Having spent years both practising and teaching Reiki means I can answer many of the practical questions that arise during training and share the little tips, experiences and lessons that you don’t necessarily find in a training manual.
I am registered member of the UK Reiki Federation at Reiki Master teacher level. I currently put my Reiki training courses through the IPHM as this gives me more scope in teaching style and allows me to answer students’ questions that may extend beyond Reiki into other spiritual areas.
Reiki Master Student Reviews & Testimonials
Naturally, there are fewer Reiki Master reviews than Reiki Level 1 and Reiki Level 2 reviews because fewer students continue all the way through the Reiki levels.
Over the years, students have shared their Reiki Master experiences through Google reviews, Facebook reviews and personal messages. Unfortunately, I lost around half of my Facebook reviews when Facebook changed how its reviews were displayed several years ago.
I have brought together below the Reiki Master reviews and messages that I still have, so that you can read the experiences of students who decided to continue their Reiki journey with me.

“We learned so much from Julia and not all of it is taught in text books – it comes from Julia’s own knowledge and experience, which is priceless.
The day was thoughtful, entertaining, and so enjoyable you forgot you were on a training course sometimes ! Julia holds her training sessions in her home and it is a beautiful calm healing place – what a complete pleasure it is to be there, being looked after by Julia.
All four of us passed the Reiki Master level and I just know we will all meet again at another of Julia’s training sessions in the future. I really fancy the Angelic session myself so might just book myself onto that one! I’ve already heard good things about it.
The Aura one I did last year was brilliant! (as all of Julia’s courses are) xXX” Lorayne Sept 2025

There are so many avenues available to us in order to grow, and Julia is always at hand to help develop them.
She has a lovely way of ensuring all students feel supported and relaxed… with lots of tea, biscuits and giggles along the way!
I cannot recommend Julia enough. She is a true Light-worker🌟🌺” Lindsey, June 2024

“I have taken a few courses over the last few years with Julia, I started with Reiki I & Il, today I have taken Reiki Masters course with her.
Julia is very understanding, very passionate about what she teaches, she explains everything in detail. From start to finish you feel at ease, she is always happy to answer any questions asked.
The courses are very intense at times but Julia (with her love of life attitude) makes learning fun. I hope to attend others in the future” Michelle February 2023
“Since my Reiki Masters training, I realise how truly blessed I am to be on my new journey, with the help of Julia. She has been an inspiration to not only me, but to so many other people.
I completed Reiki 1 and 2 in the last few years with Julia, who is an excellent teacher. I would definitely recommend her. I cannot thank her enough for all she has done x” Jan, Reiki Masters Student 2023
“I took my Reiki I and II with Julia 4 years ago and I came back to her recently to do the Reiki Master course and train as a teacher. Julia is passionate about Reiki and energy healing and that love comes across in her teachings. She has many years of experience both as a practitioner and as a teacher, and her insights into the practice and the teaching are of incredible value. Taking on the Reiki Master Teacher training can feel challenging for some of us but she gets you at levels that other people can’t, she’ll put you at ease and make you feel that you belong there, with all your ‘imperfections’. And the whole process becomes natural, unforgettable, and enjoyable. She’s caring, kind and has an amazing ‘love, live and laugh’ attitude. Be prepare to learn lots, experience deeper and to have fun ❤️ Inma x” Inma Reiki Masters Student 2023

“Julia was a very welcoming host. She went to great lengths to make all comfortable and relaxed. The course was great value , others often charging double her price.
The recap of levels one and two allowed everyone to be in the same place reminded of things you did years before. There were many differences in my previous courses but Julia explained the differences and I felt I was learning so much more than I expected. This showed me her courses are very comprehensive. I picked up so much.
The Masters component was taught using thorough notes (which you need). Again ,another added bonus was the teaching element, which these days most trainers do separately charging for more days. Julia covered this with numerous demo’s of each level. We were all well trained in how to attune others.
I was called to do this course and to me it fit so well that it was a sign to trust your guides. It was perfect with another added bonus of the lineage, including all the top previous Reiki masters. By the end of the day we were told to contact if we needed any other help. As I walked away, I felt so proud of my new Reiki lineage, and felt so happy I had or my guides had, chosen Julia. I will always be grateful.” Jackie November 2022
You Don’t Need a Perfect Life to Become a Reiki Master
Reiki Master doesn’t mean that you have mastered life. None of us has. We are all mastering life on a daily basis. Sometimes people wonder whether they are spiritual enough to become a Reiki Master. They look back at their younger years, mistakes they’ve made or times when they were perhaps a bit of a wild child and wonder whether that somehow makes them less suitable. It doesn’t. Even Phyllis Lei Furumoto, granddaughter of Hawayo Takata and an important figure in the continuation of the Reiki tradition, described herself as rebellious during her younger years before Reiki became such an important part of her life.
- You don’t need to arrive at Reiki Master training with a perfect past or a perfect life.
- You don’t have to be a professional Reiki therapist.
- You don’t have to become a Reiki teacher.
- You simply need to decide whether continuing your Reiki journey to Master level feels right for you.
Sometimes becoming a Reiki Master is about you; continuing something that has become an important part of your personal and spiritual journey. It’s about radiating a little more light and joy into your own world and allowing that to ripple out to the people around you. All I would say is: choose the Reiki Master Teacher who feels right for your journey.
Thank You to My Reiki Master Students
To every student who has continued their Reiki journey with me and taken the time to leave a review, send me a message or recommend my Reiki training to somebody else – thank you.
Over more than a decade of teaching Reiki, I have had the privilege of watching students begin at Reiki Level 1, continue through Reiki Level 2 and, for some, eventually become Reiki Masters themselves. Some have gone on to practise professionally as Reiki therapists and some have chosen to teach and pass Reiki on to others.
Your reviews don’t just support me and Culcheth Healing. They may be exactly what another Reiki student needs to read when they are wondering whether they are ready to take that final step.
