Frankville's History...
The story of Frankville goes back a long way to the late 1700 when the present house was built by Mr. Francis Welsh a gentleman who farmed about 200 acres on the fringe of Athboy
Athboy, is a thriving 18th century village in Leinster. It was once a walled town. The walls can still be seen as ruins around the laneways and streets in present day in Athboy.
Originally called Greenville it is thought that Frankville was renamed after Frank and his wife Victoria around 1820. The Earl of Darnley who subsequently acquired the town of Athboy and its lands, used the house for their land agents and a few generations of the Coggle family lives in it until around 1920.
The house then became the home of the manager of the local branch of the Ulster Bank until after 1940. After lying idle for some time, it was taken over by the mercy nuns who converted it into their Convent and built a Secondary School in the grounds and mainted a presence until 1998.
Deg and Josie Geraghty acquired the property in 2001 and transferred their B&B buisness from the far end of the town and started a 5 year-project of restoration and modernising while maintaining the georgian character of the house.

Massage Therapies and Reiki in Frankville House
What is Reiki?
Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by "laying on hands" and is based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get 
sick or feel stress, and if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy.
The word Reiki is made of two Japanese words - Rei which means "God's Wisdom or the Higher Power" and Ki which is "life force energy". So Reiki is actually "spiritually guided life force energy."
A treatment feels like a wonderful glowing radiance that flows through and around you. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit creating many beneficial effects that include relaxation and feelings of peace, security and wellbeing. Many have reported miraculous results.
Reiki is a simple, natural and safe method of spiritual healing and self-improvement that everyone can use. It has been effective in helping virtually every known illness and malady and always creates a beneficial effect. It also works in conjunction with all other medical or therapeutic techniques to relieve side effects and promote recovery.
An amazingly simple technique to learn, the ability to use Reiki is not taught in the usual sense, but is transferred to the student during a Reiki class. This ability is passed on during an "attunement" given by a Reiki master and allows the student to tap into an unlimited supply of "life force energy" to improve one's health and enhance the quality of life. Its use is not dependent on one's intellectual capacity or spiritual development and therefore is available to everyone. It has been successfully taught to thousands of people of all ages and backgrounds.
While Reiki is spiritual in nature, it is not a religion. It has no dogma, and there is nothing you must believe in order to learn and use Reiki. In fact, Reiki is not dependent on belief at all and will work whether you believe in it or not. Because Reiki comes from God, many people find that using Reiki puts them more in touch with the experience of their religion rather than having only an intellectual concept of it.
While Reiki is not a religion, it is still important to live and act in a way that promotes harmony with others. Dr. Mikao Usui, the founder of the Reiki system of natural healing, recommended that one practice certain simple ethical ideals to promote peace and harmony, which are nearly universal across all cultures.
