Frequently Asked Questions

Please dress comfortably and avoid wearing any perfume or cologne.  It is also advised to avoid eating sugar or drinking caffeine at least one hour prior to your Reiki session.  

Your session will begin with a conversation where you'll have the opportunity to speak into the support you're looking for, physically, emotionally, and mentally.  We'll do this over a cup of non-caffeinated tea.   Once you're complete, you will rest on a massage table and remain clothed for the entire session.    

Depending on the session you have booked with me it may include some or all of the following elements.

• A guided meditation
• Vibrational sound healing & an energetic tuning fork gently on your body.  This will help to remove blockages in the body’s pathways and increase the flow of energy, through which healing begins.  Sound waves travel around 4 times faster in water, which makes the body an excellent receptor and conductor of vibrational sound healing.  
• Chakra balancing. Using a variety of stones supporting each chakra they will be placed on your body at your chakra points.  Using Reiki and guided meditation we will release any energetic blocks in your chakras, then open up your chakra for proper alignment.
• Reiki Energy Flow.  I will place my hands in a series of hand positions to channel Reiki energy throughout your body,  raising your vibrational frequency, helping energetic blockages to dissolve and release.  
• Additional sound healing with a variety of sacred sound instruments around and on your body for a final energetic release.
• Optional final pray with cedar

Reiki therapeutic healing energy is gentle and subtle, yet powerful, and is used holistically to restore balance and promoting the body's ability to self-heal. By activating the Reiki energy just as I would in an in person session and setting the intention to send healing energy and your intention to receive healing. These intentions are comparable to the electromagnetic radio waves – energy frequencies we cannot see - that connect cell phones.  For them to work, they have to be tuned in; distant Reiki works the same way. We don’t have to be physically present for you to receive Reiki, just like we don’t have to be near each other to talk on the phone. Distant Reiki sessions work because energy is not limited by distance. Distance is a physical limitation only. It is based on the premise that we are all connected, all made of energy, and all part of a larger whole.

Before your session, we will have a phone conversation to learn to learn what is going on, if anything, and to have you set an intention for your session. I will need a full photo of you that I will use during the session, you can text or email it to me day of.  We will set a time for the Reiki, preferably when you're relaxing.  Your Reiki session will occur during that time using your picture. I will check your chakras to see if any are blocked or closed. I will send Reiki, to each chakra starting at the crown and working my way down clearing and opening each chakra. Once your chakra's are aligned and opened, I will continue to send you Reiki focusing on other parts of your body, for the entire duration of our session.  If you would prefer we can do the Reiki together over FaceTime or Zoom.

It really depends on your physical, emotional, and mental well-being.  Each person is different.  For some, they may need weekly appointments to fully get them back on track and can then move to sessions every 4-8 weeks.  You will know when you need Reiki and Sound Therapy.  You will feel off.  You may also have physical signs such as a lack of sleep, overthinking, overly emotional.  You may have an event that has got you off balance.  The effects of Reiki build up cumulatively, and having a course of treatments helps to produce long-term beneficial changes for you on many levels. I do offer multi-sessions discounts.  Please inquire about this option.

Deep relaxation, heat from the Practitioner‘s hands, tingling, a feeling of floating or sinking, you may see colors, have visions, receive messages, or perhaps nothing at all.
