What is Reiki?
Reiki is a non-invasive, hands-on (or hands-above) healing technique that channels universal life energy to help clear emotional blockages, restore energetic balance, and promote relaxation. Dr. Updegrove uses Reiki in a therapeutic context, creating a serene and grounded space for emotional release, spiritual connection, and physical calm.
What to Expect During a Session
Each session begins with a brief check-in to understand your emotional and physical state, followed by a relaxing Reiki energy session. Clients remain fully clothed, lying comfortably as Dr. Updegrove guides you through a process of energetic balancing using gentle hand placements or hovering techniques.
Sessions may also include breathwork, guided mindfulness, aromatherapy, or simple movement practices drawn from yoga and holistic traditions depending on your preferences and needs.
