About Reiki

Reiki (ray-key) is a Japanese word meaning Universal Life Energy. It is a hands-on healing technique rediscovered, after extensive study of the Buddhist scriptures, in the late 1800’s by a Japanese monk named Dr. Usui. This system of natural healing is based on allowing Reiki (universal life energy) to flow through the hands of the practitioner into the body of the receiving client. Reiki has become increasingly popular as a complimentary therapy in the west since 1938 when it was brought to Hawaii by Hawayo Takata. The source of Reiki is the same source as all life on the planet. Reiki works on healing our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual selves all at the same time.

What is a Reiki Session like?

In a session, I will help you get into a calm and restful state with the use of different essential oils, sound therapy, and crystal healing. While delving into a deep relaxation, I’ll have the universal energy flow through my hands as they hover above your body.  The healing energy can help balance the chakras, reduce stress, and help heal trauma in the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual bodies.

“Chona offers the most awesome Reiki healing sessions. I have had several other treatments and am trained myself…hands down (no pun intended) her reiki energy is like a shamanic transmission: deep, profound and beautiful. I walk out of there feeling more open, grounded, uplifted and very still from the inside.”
— C. Orpelli
“I was blessed to receive my first-ever Reiki session with Chona. Though I didn’t know what to expect, all nervousness and fear subsided almost immediately upon entering the room and seeing the sacred space that she creates. Her gifts have helped me re-align myself and heal parts of me I didn’t even know were broken. I highly recommend Chona to anyone who wishes to do the same!”

“I had no idea what to expect going into Reiki for the first time with Chona, and the outcome was something I couldn’t quite have imagined. I left our session feeling transformatively relaxed, both physically and mentally. Reiki with Chona was a revelation of an experience, and left me really in awe of Reiki as a practice and so appreciative of Chona’s session.”

“I had the pleasure of receiving Reiki from Chona. It was toward the middle of a long day, at the end of a long week. Afterward, I felt so energized and clear that it set me up to have a beautiful week.”
