In-Person Reiki with Theresa

Step into a dedicated space of healing. Hands-on energy work, held with intention, right here in your community.

What Is In-Person Reiki?

Reiki is a Japanese energy healing practice based on the principle that a practitioner can channel universal life-force energy — Ki — through their hands to support the body's natural ability to heal itself. The word Reiki translates roughly to "spiritually guided life energy," and its practice dates back to early 20th century Japan.

In an in-person session, Theresa works with you in a shared physical space, placing her hands lightly on or just above specific areas of your body. The energy flows where it is needed most — addressing physical discomfort, emotional tension, mental fatigue, and spiritual imbalance all at once.

Reiki is non-invasive, fully clothed, and deeply relaxing. There is nothing to fear and nothing to perform. You simply arrive, rest, and receive.

"Healing is not something done to you — it is something awakened within you. Reiki is the invitation."

What to Expect During Your Session

1. Arrival & intention setting — You'll begin with a brief conversation with Theresa. She'll ask what's present for you — physically, emotionally, or spiritually — and together you'll set an intention for the session. There are no wrong answers. Come as you are.
2. Getting comfortable — You'll lie fully clothed on a treatment table in a calm, welcoming environment. Soft lighting, quiet, and a sense of safety are part of the experience. You don't need to prepare anything or bring anything with you.
3. The healing begins — Theresa gently places her hands slightly above key areas of your body, following the chakra system and responding to what she senses in your energy field. She works intuitively, guided by where energy is flowing freely and where it may be blocked or depleted.
4. Receiving the energy — Sessions typically last 60 minutes. During that time, many people experience warmth, gentle tingling, waves of relaxation, or emotional release. Some drift into a meditative state or fall asleep entirely. All of it is welcomed and normal.
5. Closing & integration — As the session draws to a close, Theresa will gently bring you back to full awareness. You'll have time to rest, reorient, and share anything that came up. Theresa will offer observations from the session and any guidance that feels relevant.
6. After you leave — Drink plenty of water. Rest if you can. You may feel lighter immediately, or the shifts may unfold gradually over the next few days. Energy healing works on its own timeline.

What It Supports

• Chronic pain & physical tension — Reiki supports the body's natural recovery process and can ease areas of persistent discomfort
• Stress & overwhelm — A full-body reset for a nervous system that has been running on high
• Anxiety & depression — Gentle energetic support alongside any existing mental health care
• Grief & loss — A safe, held space to process what words sometimes cannot reach
• Fatigue & burnout — Restoration for those who have been giving more than they've been receiving
• Pre- or post-surgery support — Energetic preparation and recovery support
• Spiritual seeking — For those at a crossroads, craving clarity, or simply longing for deeper connection to themselves

Who It's For

In-person Reiki is for anyone who wants the full sensory experience of energy healing — the warmth of presence, the grounding of a dedicated space, and the intimacy of working with a practitioner face to face. It is especially meaningful for those processing grief, trauma, or major life transitions, where being physically held in a healing environment makes all the difference.

No prior experience with Reiki is necessary. Skeptics are welcome. Curiosity is enough.

Common Questions

Do I need to believe in Reiki for it to work? Openness helps, but belief is not required. Reiki works on the energetic level regardless of the recipient's prior knowledge or conviction. Many people who arrived skeptical have left profoundly moved.

What should I wear? Loose, comfortable clothing is ideal. You will remain fully dressed throughout the session. Remove shoes and any bulky jewelry before you begin.

Is Reiki safe alongside medical treatment? Yes. Reiki is a complementary practice and does not interfere with any medical treatment, medication, or therapy. It is not a replacement for professional medical or mental health care — it works alongside it. As a nurse practitioner, Theresa understands this boundary deeply and honors it in every session.

Will I feel emotional? You might. Releasing stored energy sometimes brings tears, laughter, or unexpected feelings to the surface. This is not a sign that something is wrong — it is often a sign that something is moving. Theresa holds that space with care and without judgment.

How often should I come? Many people find that a session every few weeks supports ongoing balance and well-being. For acute situations — grief, recovery, high stress — more frequent sessions may be beneficial at first. After your first session, Theresa will share what she observed and discuss a rhythm that feels right for you.

Your Practitioner

Theresa Mayo is a Psychiatric nurse practitioner, Reiki healer, and co-founder of Sacred Space 69. She came to energy healing through her own journey — finding in Reiki what clinical medicine alone could not always offer: a way to tend to the whole person, not just the presenting symptom.

Her dual background gives her a rare perspective. She understands anatomy, nervous system function, and the science of the body. She also understands that we are more than our bodies — and that healing often begins in places that can't be measured on a chart.

In every session, Theresa brings both of those worlds. You will feel the difference.
