Our bodies are incredibly good at holding onto energy we no longer need—energy created by stress, limiting beliefs, life events, trauma, or simply the act of living. If this energy isn’t processed, it can linger and potentially lead to dis-ease, showing up as illness, physical pain, or emotional imbalance. The good news? Our bodies are just as skilled at healing themselves when given the right conditions.

We’re all made of energy (remember atoms, electrons, protons, and neutrons from science class?). Everything around us is energy, and reiki taps into this universal life force energy that connects all living things. As a reiki practitioner, I act as a conduit, guiding this energy to flow where your body needs it most. By working intuitively, I can sense areas where energy feels blocked or stagnant and help restore balance.

Reiki works beautifully alongside your medical care and therapies by addressing the energetic layer of healing, but it’s not a replacement for these treatments. Instead, it complements them, supporting your body’s natural ability to heal on all levels.

As you and I focus on a specific area of your body, we’re more likely to become aware of emotional, mental, or spiritual wounds causing energy blocks. Once we’re aware, we can work to release and clear them. This process is innate in all of us. If you twist an ankle, your natural instinct is to touch and focus on the pained area. Reiki follows that same principle but takes it deeper, supporting healing on physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual levels.

Consider your energy system as a drain. When it’s clear, it flows smoothly. When it’s clogged, things back up and slow. Similarly, when your energy is stuck, it can impact your overall well-being. Reiki helps to “unclog” this flow by working with energy pathways (meridians)that connect energy centers (chakras) in the body, like how the nervous system transmits messages for bodily functions.

Reiki, like many other alternative therapies. aims to address root causes of an issue to promote balance that can ripple through the body in surprising and impactful ways. You may visit a chiropractor to adjust your back, and find your allergies improve because your body is working more efficiently. A reiki practitioner may clear energy from your solar plexus chakra to help alleviate the same issue.

Reiki is also incredibly versatile. It can be done in person or even from a distance because energy isn’t bound by physical space. Whether we’re face-to-face or miles apart, reiki helps clear blockages and encourage the free flow of energy wherever it’s needed.

During a session, people experience reiki differently. You might feel warmth, tingling, or a deep sense of relaxation. Sometimes, emotions rise to the surface, while other times, you simply feel calm and renewed. The best part? Reiki only works with the energy you’re ready to release, so the process is always gentle and aligned with what’s best for you in that moment.

A session is your time to unwind, destress, and recharge. It gives your body the space it needs to enter a state of deep relaxation, where healing can naturally occur. You don’t even need to open your eyes—just hand over the keys, and I’ll take the wheel for a while.

Reiki is also a break from the constant pressure to explain how you feel or figure things out on your own. During our time together, I’ll tune into your body, share what I pick up, and let you decide what resonates and what you’d like to focus on. There’s no need to start the conversation or explain yourself—you simply get to rest and receive.

As your body, mind, emotions, and soul relax, so does your nervous system. This creates the ideal conditions for your body to heal itself naturally. Reiki is a beautiful reminder that healing doesn’t have to be complicated—it’s about creating balance, releasing what no longer serves you, and reconnecting with the flow of life.
