Create Your Balance

What is Reiki? Reiki is an Energy Medicine Therapy that works directly on the parasympathetic nervous system to quiet the sympathetic overdrive in the body. The Japanese healing modality allows the nervous system to come back to homeostasis, to balance the body’s systems and allow it to self-heal, as we are designed to do. This is healing from the inside out. Benefits include: Reduces stress and anxiety Reduces inflammation Reduces blood pressure, cortisol levels Clearing of old injury, trauma, old patterns, that block your healing Improves sleep Improves digestion Faster healing and recovery time from illness, injury, surgery… Allows for clearer thought processes The benefits are exponential! Who is Melissa? I knew from a young age that I wanted to work with people in some way. I studied Elementary Education and Psychology in school and stepped into the role of teacher after graduation. I then became ill with a “mysterious illness” which was later labeled Fibromyalgia. While I was navigating the pain and many other debilitating symptoms, Reiki found me in 2009. Reiki was the puzzle piece I needed to launch my healing. I was so overwhelmed by the amazing, beautiful healing that was happening to me, that I knew I had to study Reiki to help others heal. In 2010, I began my studies and in 2011, I became a Reiki Master Teacher (RMT). In 2021, I became a Certified Medical Reiki Master (CMRM). Why Me? I am a true believer that people cross paths for a reason. Our personal connection is very important to our work together, as I see each session as sacred. During the Reiki sessions, I receive messages from your body that bring awareness to your barriers that could be holding you back and getting in the way of your healing. These channeled messages bring intuition for action items for you to continue your healing after the session is done. While healing is your responsibility, I will be with you for support and guidance. True, deep healing is a lot of work and is not easy. If you are ready, I am ready.
