Reiki


I have worked with Christine for many years as colleagues in the yoga and healing profession. I have had the gift of receiving reiki from her in person and distance many times for both acute injuries and conditions and for general well-being. Christine is a wise and mature practitioner with a nurturing spirit and well developed intuition. Her sessions are powerful and she provides an ideal balance between holding space for the client to have their own experience and providing useful and affirming guidance for integrating the session and moving forward. She has helped me heal from back pain, recover from sickness, and make spiritual progress.

Reiki means universal life force energy and is a Japanese hands-on healing modality that can decrease stress, mitigate pain, and promote healing. Reiki can bring balance to one’s physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health.

In traditional Eastern medicine, it is said that each person is born with a certain amount of energy. Over time we use up part of that energy in the natural course of living. It gets further depleted or restricted by stress, poor nutrition, and environmental factors. When energy is depleted or stagnation of energy occurs, chronic illnesses can develop. Reiki introduces new energy into a person’s system and, as a consequence, is a healing practice for restoration, preventative care, maintenance of health, and continued personal and spiritual growth.

Benefits of Reiki:

  • Brings balance according to the individual’s needs at the time

  • Works specifically in affected areas/conditions/issues

  • Reduces stress by relieving pain, relaxing the body, and calming emotions

  • Releases patterns and blocks to suppressed emotions

  • Strengthens immune system

  • Treats symptoms and causes of illnesses and diseases

  • Promotes natural self-healing

  • Enhances personal awareness and spiritual growth

What to expect:  

Reiki is a complementary therapy that is safe for any condition. Sessions are gentle, non-invasive, and are typically given on a massage table where the recipient remains fully clothed. The Reiki practitioner serves as a conduit for the healing energy, which flows from from the universe through the practitioner’s hands, and to the recipient’s body, mind, spirit where healing is most needed. Enhancing energy flow and removing blockages in the physical and subtle layers enhances physical wellbeing and promotes spiritual clarity to see the essence of our true selves. The Reiki healing continues beyond the session.

With Christine, each Reiki treatment incorporates health and wellness guidance from her Yoga Therapy practice and includes post-session care. Read more about Comprehensive Self-Care.


Distance Reiki 

Reiki energy transcends time and space and can can be sent to any location, anyone, and at any time without physical contact. Distance Reiki can feel different but works the same as an in-person session. There's nothing you have to do, except find a place and time where you will be undisturbed and can position yourself in a comfortable posture. Distance Reiki allows you to be in the comfort of your own home or space of choice. Click here for more information and to schedule a session.
