Energy Healing & Reiki+
Have you heard of reiki? This is an ancient alternative medicine technique from Tibet and Japan. Connected to our physical body is the energy body, which is not easily seen by the human eye. Emotions and memories can get stuck or become overactive in our energy centers and the energy field around us, correlating with feeling low or stressed, feeling unfocused or easily fatigued, experiencing pain and tension, developing dis-ease in certain areas of the physical body, etc. In the practice of reiki, we move and transmute stagnant or congested energy. Light touch or no touch (hovering) by the palms may be used on a fully clothed client.
Sherri’s energy work has helped children and adults with the following and more:
-
Chronic and acute pain — e.g., arthritis, fibromyalgia, temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain, concussion and traumatic brain injury (TBI), muscle tension
-
Anxiety, depression, grief, stress, insomnia
-
Rebalancing and regulating the nervous system
​
Sherri’s energy healing services can be combined with holistic speech therapy sessions at no additional cost. For reiki sessions alone, these include a combination of intuitive hand placements on your energy body, aura rebalancing, Usui/Tibetan reiki, Holy Fire® reiki, Karuna Reiki®, mediumship, and no-tools oracle readings. Sherri also prioritizes guiding you through reintegration and grounding.
