Reiki is a Japanese energy-based practice in which the practitioner places their hands lightly on, or just above, the client's body in a series of positions, from the head to the feet. The client lies fully clothed on a treatment couch. Practitioners describe channelling energy to promote balance; there is no scientific evidence for such energy, but clients consistently report feeling deeply relaxed and calm.
It is one of the gentlest therapies available and is offered in holistic centres, spas and some hospices and cancer support services, where it is valued for comfort. It suits people who do not want massage, or who find touch difficult, since it can be given entirely hands-off. Reiki is taught in levels or "degrees", and many centres also run training courses.
A 60-minute session usually costs £40 to £70, and distance sessions are often offered by the same practitioners. Look for membership of the UK Reiki Federation or registration with the CNHC. Reiki should complement, never replace, medical treatment, and a reputable practitioner will not claim to diagnose or cure.

The Northern Quarter has the independent yoga studios, sound bath collectives and holistic practices, often in converted mills and warehouses above shops and cafés. Deansgate and the City Centre hold the hotel spas, with rooftop pools and thermal suites aimed at weekend visitors and pre-night-out spa packages for groups. Salford Quays has the waterfront: open-water swimming in the docks, floating saunas and cold plunges that sell out on weekend mornings.
