Reiki

Reiki is the transferring of positive, healing energy from the trained Reiki practitioner to the client. People benefit from Reiki in many ways. Reiki can identify and release congested energy. Reiki can elicit a holistic healing effect and Reiki can release emotional blockages. Reiki is healing for our physical, emotional and spiritual bodies.

As a dancer and a dance teacher I have always worked in the realm of body, mind, and spirit. Practicing Reiki came to me when I retired from teaching and wanted to continue to fuel the spiritual side of me, while still connecting my body and mind as well. I have been a recipient of the energetic healing powers of Reiki and am grateful I was able to study under an authentic Reiki Master who attuned me as a Level 2 Reiki healer. My goal as a Reiki practitioner is to offer energetic healing through Reiki to those who feel they want to add to their collection of healing practices. I also plan to study Reiki level 3 in the future. Whether you want to heal the body, the mind, or the spirit, or all 3, Reiki is a practice that can work for you.
