Frequently Asked Questions:

Is this offering for me?

Life is stressful. We are so accustomed to living fast-paced, busy lives. We take care of our families, run errands, go to meetings, and check things off our to-do list. But when do we find time for rest and relaxation? When do we give ourselves the chance to recover and restore? Allow me to make space for your well-being.

If you feel like you’ve strayed away from the best version of yourself, this offering is for you. These sessions provide a space that prioritizes your well-being and are designed to promote balance through release, relaxation, and rest. When you take the time to rest, you can be at your best.

What does each session include?

Each session is a blend of Reiki, Restorative Yoga, and somatic sound healing (metal singing bowls played on or around the body) and is personalized to support your needs. A pre-session questionnaire is sent to you to fill out before your appointment date. This questionnaire is the first step in the creation of your own personalized session. It includes choosing a hands-on or hands-off session. When you arrive, we start with a check-in and a review of your questionnaire, and then we go straight into your session.

Where will these sessions be held?

Sessions are in-person in South San Francisco, CA. I will provide the exact address after your session is confirmed.

What is Reiki?

Reiki is a Japanese technique for reducing stress, relaxing, and promoting healing. “Rei” refers to universal spiritual wisdom and “Ki” refers to life force energy. When a person has low life force energy, they are more susceptible to sickness or stress. A practitioner administers Reiki by laying hands on a person (both hands-on and hands-off options are available) and channeling energy to them. Reiki treats the whole person including body, emotions, mind and spirit. It creates many beneficial effects including relaxation and feelings of peace, security and well-being.

What is somatic sound healing?

Sound Healing combines different healing sounds, music, and sound healing instruments to improve our well-being. These sounds come together to create a beautiful and awakening experience in the body, mind, soul, and spirit. Sound Healing is highly effective at triggering our relaxation response, which counters the many symptoms caused by chronic stress while helping to balance our whole being. Singing bowls are played on or near the body to promote release and relaxation.

What is Restorative Yoga?

Restorative yoga is a mindful practice that prioritizes slowness, quietness, and stillness to encourage release and rest. This mindful practice involves using props to support your body in a comfortable pose for an extended time. Restorative yoga activates the parasympathetic nervous system, which signals our bodies to relax, rest, and process. This practice releases body tension and encourages deep rest.

What do I wear? What do I bring?

These sessions are clothes on and shoes off. Wear clothing that feels comfortable and non-restricting when lying down. Socks can be worn during the session for warmth. During the session, you will also be covered by a blanket. I can provide additional blankets for coverage and warmth if desired. I recommend bringing water to keep hydrated.

I have more questions. How can I contact you?

Private Session Testimonials

“I really enjoyed the energy healing session! You created a relaxing environment - the bed set up was super comfy and the lavender oil was a really nice touch and helped my clear my mind from the get go. You also set a tone of calm and ease - you never seemed rushed and your voice was calming. I liked getting to pick from the different sound bowls - it adds a feeling of being in the moment. Your touch was gentle yet powerful with the intention to heal. I left with a sense of well-being and realignment. Absolutely wonderful!”

-Anonymous

“ I enjoyed the entire session. I liked the feeling of collaboration. For example, I had the opportunity to choose three, metal bowls; choice of touch vs. no touch; there were verbal "check-ins" throughout the session, the aromatherapy was nice, but I really liked the weighted eye mask. So much that I purchased one that day. I definitely felt the muscle tension slip away during the session, which was my ultimate goal. Thank you and I do hope you offer these sessions in the future.”

-Linda S.

“It was great!! I really enjoyed the session. You did a great job of being flexible and adjusting things during the session. I was comfortable and at ease.”

-Anonymous

“The offering was very relaxing. My favorite part was eventually being able to turn off my monkey mind. I wasn’t aware - until that moment - that it was something that I needed to do. Your offering helped me to realize that.”

-Will S.

“this was my first rieki session and certainly won't be my last. Nirel, spent a few minutes discussing what reiki was and the squence of events that included lavender oils, gentle reiki touch and singing bowls. as the session commenced i felt instant relaxation, reduction of stress and anxiety i've been feeling from my work. after the session i felt like i'd awoken from a deep sleep, feeling relaxed and energized. Nirel is an excellent reiki/ yoga teacher and practioner.”

-Kenneth C.

“The offering is wholesome in a calming environment. I felt more refreshed. I really enjoyed on-body Reiki touches, which are very warming and soothing, and the extra-comfortable massage table. I really appreciated the virtual check-in for preferences (on-body vs. off) - because I'm sensitive to vibrations.”
