Reiki
What is Reiki?
Reiki (霊気) is a traditional Japanese practice that nurtures the natural flow of life energy.
The word Rei (霊) can be understood as "universal" or "spiritual," while Ki (気) refers to the vital energy present in all living beings. Together, Reiki is often translated as universal life energy, but beyond its name, Reiki is a gentle practice of supporting the body's natural balance.
My teacher, Atsushi Kubo sensei, often compared Reiki to watering a plant. We do not force a plant to grow—we simply provide the conditions it needs to flourish. In the same way, Reiki is not about fixing or controlling the body. It is about supporting the natural flow of life energy, creating the conditions in which body, mind, and spirit can return to their own balance.
For some people, Reiki is a deeply restorative experience. For others, it offers clarity, inspiration, emotional healing, or a quiet space to reconnect with themselves. Each experience is unique, because each person comes with different needs.
At its deepest level, Reiki is also a spiritual practice. Like yoga, it invites us to return to our true nature and to live with greater awareness, compassion, and freedom. Whether you come seeking rest, healing, guidance, or spiritual growth, you are warmly welcome exactly as you are.

The way I practice has been deeply shaped by my teacher, Atsushi Kubo sensei, whose emphasis on kindness, humility, and presence continues to inspire every session I offer.
Traditional Japanese Reiki
My practice is rooted in the Traditional Japanese Reiki lineage of Chujiro Hayashi. I received my Reiki training from my teacher, Atsushi Kubo sensei, whose teachings continue to shape the way I practice and share Reiki.
In this tradition, Reiki is more than a treatment—it is a lifelong practice of cultivating presence, awareness, and compassion. While Reiki may support relaxation, healing, or personal growth, it is also a path of spiritual cultivation, inviting us to return to our natural state.
My sessions are offered with a gentle, hands-off approach, creating a space where you can feel safe, respected, and free to simply be. Rather than focusing only on techniques or protocols, I value quiet presence, meditation, and meeting each person with kindness, just as I was taught.
