What is Reiki?

Energy is at the core of everything around us and is the life force that courses through us all. Our thoughts, feelings, and experiences all carry an energetic frequency. Reiki is Japanese for “Universal life force energy” - also known as Chi, Qi, and Prāna. Reiki is a safe, non-invasive complementary technique that promotes healing and aids in emotional, physical, and energetic balance. Reiki is a spiritual practice, not a belief system. It is not tied to any religion. Reiki is on the frequency of unconditional love and it only serves your highest good.

Energy healing is surprisingly
similar to a good, long hug.

Think of a time where a much needed hug completely shifted your mood. According to Dr. John Gottman, a 20 second hug has powerful benefits to both our physical and emotional health. Both hugs and Reiki are non-verbal expressions of compassion and support. They release oxytocin and lowers cortisol (stress) levels, calm the nervous system, lower your blood pressure, and can reduce anxiety and stress. Think of Reiki as a comforting, supportive energetic hug that can elevate you out of a lower vibrational state.

Meet your Reiki practitioner, Heather Young

Heather is a Certified Usui and Karuna Reiki Master practitioner. She arrived in Philadelphia in October of 2025 after years of soul searching - she was ready to put down roots and find community.Before her move to Philly, she spent many years focused on healing from a painful past with a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR. In the depths of her healing journey, she found Reiki. In 2023, she began practicing her craft at a holistic center where she quickly saw firsthand the change, self-empowerment, and inner strength that Reiki brought into the lives of her clients.Heather practices Reiki daily and finds purpose in holding a sacred space for others to heal.

What does a reiki session with heather look like?

  • You will be warmly greeted by Heather and she will get you familiar with the space.

  • She will explain what you may feel throughout the session and answer any questions or concerns you may have.

  • Heather will check in with you to see how you have been feeling and ask if there is anything you'd like her to be aware of before beginning the session.

  • She will give you time to get onto the massage table (fully clothed) and allow you to settle in.

  • Once you are comfortable, Heather will begin the session with a guided meditation to ease you into a relaxed state. She then will begin channeling Reiki energy and will send it through the chakra system, and intuitively will send the energy where it is needed.

  • Once the session is complete, she will gently guide you back into your body and give you a moment to gather yourself.

  • After the session, Heather is available to answer any questions you may have. She will share her findings with you and discuss any blockages found. if you feel inclined to share what you experienced, an open discussion is always welcome, but not required.
