Reiki (pronounced ray-key), a deeply relaxing method of therapeutic touch developed in Japan, is a powerful means of achieving and maintaining physical, mental and spiritual well being. This healing technique, which involves the laying-on of hands, works directly on the energy field – or aura – surrounding your body as well as the life-force energy flowing within it.

This energy, commonly called "prana," "chi" (chee), or "ki" (key) in practices like yoga and acupuncture, travels through energy centers in your body named chakras and pathways called meridians. Disruptions in this energy flow adversely affect your mind, body and spirit, leading to illness. Reiki restores the harmonious flow of life-force energy.

In the Western world, many people are just beginning to realize how crucial "ki" is to good health, though Far Eastern cultures have understood its importance for thousands of years. Restoring proper energy flow is the aim of not only Reiki, but also acupuncture, T'ai Chi, herbal remedies and other practices relied upon by millions of people.

Personal Empowerment

Receiving a Reiki session is wonderful for relaxation, stress reduction and centering, but there’s no need to always depend on me or another practitioner to provide this kind of treatment.

You can learn the basics in a single day in an introductory class, making a quantum leap in your personal and spiritual evolution. Once attuned to the Reiki energy source through a Master Teacher, you truly possess tremendous holistic-healing power in the palms of your hands (for use on yourself or others).

A registered Karuna Reiki® Master Teacher with the International Center for Reiki Training, I offer both classes and sessions in my home healing studio in Atlanta (Ormewood Park).

Change Your Mind

Also a Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, I frequently employ the power of hypnosis to help clients heal at the deep level of the subconscious.

Sometimes I use hypnosis techniques in conjunction with Reiki to help clients get deeply relaxed and open to healing on all levels of the mind, body, and spirit via guided visualizations and affirmations.

For receptive clients, I also use regression techniques to identify the root causes of problems, helping clear their subconscious minds of all the negative programming that's been holding them back. Energywork is normally a part of these sessions.

You Decide

I, of course, offer sessions that are pure Reiki for clients who want to focus exclusively on that healing modality.

It's all good!
