ENERGY WORK SERVICES
60-MINUTE ENERGY WORK SESSION
This energy treatment is designed to bring you down into a calm, relaxed state in order to open and align your energy centers. You'll experience a short talk session with your practitioner before getting on the treatment table in order to identify your current needs and any obstacles you may be currently facing in your life. Once you settle onto the heated treatment table, we will scan your body to determine which energetic centers are out of balance and use gentle hands-on therapy to bring them back into alignment aided by the use of crystal tools and oils. As the body begins to re-align, your aura will be washed and cleansed through a short sound therapy session that may include rattles, singing bowls, drums, gongs, and gentle chimes.
You can expect to leave this session feeling relaxed, heard, peaceful, and whole.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF ENERGY WORK
In a study published in Biological Research for Nursing, 21 healthcare professionals with burnout (a work-related mental health condition characterized by mental exhaustion, emotional detachment, and a lowered sense of personal accomplishment) received a 30-minute Reiki session with an experienced therapist, as well as a 30-minute placebo treatment with an inexperienced therapist who mimicked the Reiki treatment. The two treatments were separated by one week; participants were randomly assigned their treatment order, and they weren’t told which treatment they were getting during which session. Researchers found that heart rate variability was greater following the Reiki session, which suggests (using a very quantifiable physiological measurement) that Reiki may help a stressed nervous system relax.

Research shows that a single Reiki session may help your autonomic nervous system, the primitive part of your nervous system that you don’t need to consciously control (it's responsible for things like heartbeat and breathing), move from a sympathetic-dominant, or “fight-or-flight” state, to a parasympathetic-dominant, or “rest-and-digest” state which helps you to relax.

Reiki & other forms of energy work may also improve mood and sleep: A study published in Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine found that college students who received six 30-minute Reiki sessions reported greater improvements in stress, depression, anxiety, and sleep.

Research suggests that Reiki may lower anxiety, stress, and pain in people undergoing surgery. In a study published in 2017 of patients undergoing knee replacement surgery, researchers separated 46 patients into three groups: One group received three or four 30-minute Reiki treatments throughout their hospital stay; a second group received the same number of placebo (sham) Reiki sessions; and a third group received neither Reiki nor sham Reiki. Every group also received standard medical care. Researchers found that only those who received Reiki saw significant reductions in pain, blood pressure, breathing rate, and anxiety pre- and post-surgery.

Keep in mind that energy work is a form of complementary therapy, which means it works alongside — not in place of — other medical and therapeutic techniques. It should not be used as a substitute for other treatments your healthcare providers have prescribed.
