Reiki is a healing energy practice that originated in Japan in the early 1900’s. Rei means spiritual wisdom or Spirit and ki means energy, so Reiki means spiritual energy.* It does not involve the movement of soft tissue or muscle but is often described as deeply relaxing and restorative.

​

Anyone of any age or health status can benefit from Reiki, even newborn and pre-natal babies or people at the end of life can benefit from the relaxation that Reiki provides.*

​

Reiki energy can not harm and compliments other treatment plans and medications. It can easily be incorporated into other massage styles but feels fantastic to receive as a dedicated session.

​

Reiki is especially helpful for those challenged with anxiety, insomnia, depression and PTSD. I volunteered my Reiki services to the Veteran's Center in Sacramento, CA  from 2016-2019 and my colleagues and I received consistent positive feedback from the recipients and their respective counselors. One of the comments often received is, "I haven't felt this relaxed in a long time."

​​

Each person senses the Reiki energy differently and each session is unique. While receiving, some people sense energy moving within their bodies, some feel temperature changes under my hands, some feel emotions moving through, some see colors or images, some drift off into a dream like journey, some go to sleep and some people don't sense anything noticeable. And even if nothing is felt and the session is quiet, the Reiki energy still goes where needed to balance, restore and refresh.* 

​

Reiki can be received in person or remotely. If you are new to receiving Reiki, I recommend receiving in person first in order to best experience the energy and be able to give each other immediate feedback. If you are familiar with energy work or meditation, remote sessions offer flexibility to receive when you are not able to come in to the studio. This is often a nice option for hospital support before, during or after procedures and for grief support. 

​

In-person sessions: You'll remain clothed during the session, removing shoes, belt and large jewelry. For a combined session with Reiki following Massage, the client remains on the table fully draped during the Reiki portion. I'll place my hands lightly on or just above your body, inviting this healing energy to flow through me into you.  It is called a healing art because I use both traditional hand placements as well as listening to my intuition on where next to place my hands.

​

Remote sessions: We'll schedule an appointment just like an in-person session. Allow yourself a space to receive that is quiet and uninterrupted. It's nice to allow yourself time before and afterwards to relax versus rushing in and out of the session. You may add music, essential oils, eye masks, PJs or whatever creates a comfy restful space in which to receive. You may receive lying down or in a supportive chair. Create a space in which you can fully let go and focus on your breath. Before the session, we'll discuss and agree to work on specific needs or allow a general wellness session. Afterwards, if you'd like, we can schedule time to chat by phone or text to exchange information about the experience. I'll text before and after the session to let you know when I'm beginning and ending the session.
