About South Bay Reiki and Wellness

Reiki is...
a gentle, safe, non-intrusive hands-on technique, based on the idea that an unseen "life force energy" flows through us. If one's "life force energy" is low, then we are more likely to get sick or feel stress and if our “life force energy” is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy. Reiki not only treats physical ailments, but provides a holistic balance system for healing and harmonizing all aspects of the body & mind. Working with the chakras and your body's own innate intelligence, it promotes balance, well-being and relaxation.


These are stressful and anxious times and many of us are experiencing the effects. Even if you have a health concern such as insomnia, headache, fatigue, joint or back pain, or face a more serious challenge, you need not suffer. Reiki healing promotes overall balance to help you feel better and function better. This non-invasive practice is safe, and supports any medical treatment or drugs prescribed by your doctor. Can you benefit from Reiki? Yes, you can. Because Reiki practice is balancing, it can help in a wide range of situations. Wouldn't you like more balance in your life?

When you experience Reiki, you will move into a restful state, similar to that achieved in meditation (even those who say they can't meditate!). When the body is in this state, it is easier for deep healing and full relaxation to take place.



A Reiki session, is usually between 45 minutes to 1 ½ hours. Included within this time period is check in and follow up conversation. The client is fully clothed, and can receive Reiki either while lying comfortably on a massage table or sitting in a chair. I often use Young Living Essential Oils during sessions. I find their healing properties enhance the healing and help raise the client's vibrational levels. These wonderful oils are included in your session.

The session is gentle and can feel like a warm, calming and relaxing energy flowing through and around the client. The effects and sensations while receiving a Reiki session (and often for days after), can vary from person to person, and range from being light and subtle to dramatic and profound. Even the most tense person (or even animal!) will feel more at ease and peaceful. Pain relief is often immediate. Often, where negative mental thoughts or emotions are felt by a client, a "shift" can occur and new hope and motivation enters the client's consciousness.

For mild to moderate health and emotional conditions, sometimes one session is all that is needed for the client's body/mind/spirit to recover, balance and feel better. More sessions may be suggested, depending on the client's situation and history. However, this is ultimately the client's decision. Some clients also enjoy having a monthly Reiki “tune-up”.
