I will be taking a break from in-person
sessions for the time being

What is it?

 Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. The word Reiki comes from the Japanese word (Rei) which means “Universal Life” and (Ki) which means “Energy”. Reiki is not affiliated with any particular religion or religious practice.  It is a non-invasive and effective form of energy work using spiritually guided life force energy.

 

Reiki is the life energy that flows through all living things. Reiki Practitioners understand that everyone has the ability to connect with their own healing energy and use it to strengthen energy in themselves and help others. It is believed that a person’s “ki” or energy should be strong and free flowing. When this is true a person’s body and mind is in a positive state of health. When the energy becomes weak or blocked it could lead to symptoms of physical or emotional imbalance.

 

A Reiki session can help ease tension and stress and can help support the body to facilitate an environment for healing on all levels – physical, mental, and emotional. A session is pleasant and relaxing and is often utilized for one’s personal wellness.

WHAT TO EXPECT.

A session is typically 60 minutes long. During an initial intake, I will describe the session, give you an opportunity to discuss any particular problems or issues you are experiencing and ask if there is anything you are hoping to achieve from your session. During the session you will rest comfortably on a massage table fully clothed. Loose, comfortable clothing is suggested. A session can either be hands-on, where I will apply a light touch during the session, or hands-off where I will hold my hands slightly above your body. 

 

I connect with your energy and am intuitively guided as to where imbalances, pain, and blockages may be.  You may feel a warming or tingling sensation during the session or nothing at all but sheer relaxation.

 

Your session will be very pleasant, relaxing and rejuvenating.
