Every session includes a short check-in at the start to understand where you are physically and emotionally. During the treatment, you lie fully clothed on a table while I place my hands gently in a sequence of positions across the body. Many people fall asleep or enter a deep meditative state. Afterward, we debrief together, and I follow up the next day by phone or text.

For those new to Reiki, I recommend beginning with four sessions over a short period — ideally once or twice a week. This gives your body and mind a strong foundation for healing.

Physical and emotional issues build up over time and don't disappear overnight. During the first session, the body may be guarded. By the second, it begins to open. The third and fourth sessions go deeper and begin to produce the real healing shifts we're looking for. After the initial four, we find a rhythm — weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly — depending on your needs.

I recommend weekly sessions at first, much like any ongoing therapy or healing work. Weekly sessions allow for deeper, more sustained shifts. Once major patterns begin to release, most clients move to every other week, then monthly for maintenance and continued growth.

Each treatment builds on the last. Reiki works through gentle purification — revealing and releasing what has been stuck or weighing you down. The more we release, the more clearly and fully we live.

Reiki releases impurities from the body, mind, and emotions. Sometimes that clearing stirs up old pain, trauma, or stored energies that have accumulated over a lifetime. This is temporary — and it's a normal part of the healing process.

What typically follows is a deeper sense of clarity, lightness, and peace. Think of it as the body processing and letting go. Drinking plenty of water and getting a good night's sleep after your session helps support this process.

Wear comfortable, loose clothing — you remain fully clothed throughout the entire session. Avoid heavy meals right before. Plan to drink water afterward and, if possible, give yourself a quiet evening to integrate the treatment.

Distance Reiki is sent from the practitioner to the client across any distance — using sacred Reiki symbols that connect the energy regardless of physical location. The client rests in a comfortable space at home during the treatment time.

Yes, it works. My distance clients report results that are just as powerful as in-person sessions. Distance Reiki is particularly helpful for those who are homebound, traveling, or in need of immediate support between in-person visits.

Yes. Reiki works in conjunction with conventional medicine and enhances the benefits of psychotherapy, surgery, and prescription medication. Many clients use Reiki as a complement to cancer treatment, recovery from injury or surgery, and ongoing mental health support. Reiki does not replace medical care, but it supports and deepens the healing process alongside it.
