Care for your energy. Co-create your experience.

Something shifts in a Reiki session that is difficult to describe until you’ve experienced it.

A settling.

A release.

Like something that has been held for a very long time finally being allowed to rest.

This is not magic - it is your body’s own intelligence being supported to do what it already knows how to do. And when that session is held by a licensed clinician who also reads energy, the container is different.

Deeper. More precise.

Reiki at Essential Essence is not a stand-alone modality. It is one thread of an integrated healing practice -informed by over a decade of clinical expertise in trauma, the nervous system, and the body’s wisdom.

Reiki is gentle, non-invasive, and non-pharmacological - designed for wellness, stress relief, and alleviating distress through compassionate, soothing presence.

It is a complementary therapy and can be used alongside other medical and psychological treatments.

Effective for: stress, anxiety, restlessness, mood, worry, sleeplessness, fatigue, chronic pain, and more.

Treatments may include:

  • On-the-body and non-touch energy treatments

  • Removal of stagnant and low-vibrational energies

  • Vibrational work with crystal grids

  • Ancestral and lineage clearing

  • Distance treatments

  • Animals or pets

The process

Your care, comfort, and presence are the foundation of every session.

1. Sacred Listening - We begin with an initial conversation to learn about you, your needs, and your intentions for care.

2. Mutual Agreement - When collaboration feels like a good fit, we complete mutual agreements, scheduling, and payment.

3. Session Protocol - We meet and design your healing protocol together.

4. Treatment- We open sacred space for protection and connection. You will typically rest on a massage table under fresh linens. Reiki is received fully clothed, with the option for hands-on or hands-off treatment. Ashica layers multiple holistic, energetic, and evidence-based therapeutic practices to meet your healing intentions.

5. Integration - Post-session review, aftercare recommendations, and complimentary home integration guidance.
