Healing Touch vs Reiki
Healing Touch and Reiki are both heart-centered, energy based approaches that support relaxation and well-being but they differ in the structure and training.
Reiki is a spiritually guided practice that typically involves attunements and symbolic techniques and is often taught in a short time frame. Healing Touch is a clinically developed modality that uses over 30 techniques, a structured multi-level curriculum. It was developed within a healthcare context and emphasizes ethics, scope of practice and professional standards.
Both modalities are effective and accessible.

I blend decades of healthcare experience with Healing Touch, combining evidence-informed intuitive, heart-centered care.
Healing Touch is a formal program grounded in standards of care and whole-person care. Having provided thousands of sessions - and experienced the work personally - I understand the importance of feeling safe, supported, and genuinely cared for during healing work. My role is to create a calm, grounded space where healing, relaxation, and emotional restoration can unfold naturally.
