What is Reiki?
Reiki is an ancient Japanese relaxation technique that promotes healing in all bodies: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. It comes from the Japanese words Rei and Ki; rei means "universal," and ki means "life energy."
Reiki practitioners act as a conduit between the client and the universal life force energy source. During a session, you'll lie on the table fully clothed as your practitioner gently places their palms down to deliver a warm, light touch, promoting the flow and balance of energy.
Reiki energy flows through the practitioner's hands to the client. Reiki energy may be received through heat, tingling, or emotional release. Sometimes, people have visualizations or can feel the sensations moving through their bodies, while others may not notice more subtle changes. What's important to know is that the reiki energy flows regardless of the client's perceived experience.
In some cases, Reiki is received hands-off with the practitioner working through the auric field as they hover their hands above your body. The Reiki energy is still received even if you fall asleep during your session!
Reiki Information:
Reiki inspires me to be the purest vessel I can be. Reiki is divine love and light. It is universal; it is source; it is God; it is nature; it is whatever you believe in.
I grew up around Reiki, receiving this healing modality from my mom almost anytime I experienced pain, from a headache to a burn. She's been practicing Reiki for over 20 years, and I believe that her Reiki protection helped me in situations that likely could have been worse.
I was attuned to Reiki I & II as a teen, mainly practicing on myself, my pets, and with others in organized "Reiki Shares." In May 2021, I received my Reiki Master Certification and started offering private Reiki sessions in people's homes. In the Spring, I started renting a room to provide sessions in a more professional setting and realized I was ready to share this gift with others.
In April 2022, I hosted my first Reiki I and Reiki II Certification Classes and hosted again in February 2023. After a weekend of energetic immersion and trust, 7 beautiful humans graduated with their Reiki I and Reiki II Certifications. Hosting this 2-day class felt incredibly aligned, and I'm honored to share this ancient healing technique with others.
We are now offering Reiki at Feel Free Yoga & Wellness in Athens, GA.
Members enjoy an hour of reiki for $85; non-members pay $95/hour. Book from the Feel Free Yoga App. Download Here.
My experience with distant Reiki Healing-
Although I was skeptical at first, I have experienced and come to appreciate the power of distant Reiki during monthly Reiki Shares with other Reiki II practitioners. Curious how it works? During the Reiki II Certification Class, students learn the ancient symbol for distant healing. Energy doesn't know limitations...time or space. I even received my Reiki Master Certification virtually through Zoom. I felt like I could deeply surrender to the energy of the training because I was in the comfort of my own space.
How to prepare-
Arrive with an open heart, ready to receive. If you have specific questions, feel free to get in touch with me before our session. Plan to take it easy the remainder of the day after your session.
You can book a distant Reiki Service anytime.
What to expect-
Once we've scheduled our session together, you'll receive meeting details for our distant Reiki session via Zoom. Please wear comfortable clothing, find a relaxing position, and turn your notifications to do not disturb. I'll leave time at the end of our session for us to discuss anything we'd like to. Please be prepared to have your camera on for at least the discussion portion of our call.

"I started to do reiki with McKenzie and eventually became Reiki level II certified through her. McKenzie is so tapped in to her own intuition and she has helped me immensely in listening to my own over the course of our friendship. I have grown so much over the last year since meeting her and I don't think I would be where I am at without her influence in my life. Spirit definitely brought us together in divine timing. She is a strong woman, a beautiful healer, and a very dear friend. I have so much love and respect for the practice that she has cultivated and shares with others."

"I've received Reiki healing through McKenzie, as well as purchased her Chakra workbook. McKenzie is thorough, professional, and obviously well experienced in her metaphysical field of work. The Reiki session I attended with her left me feeling more energized and mentally and emotionally balanced. The oracle reading she did beforehand as part of that session was spot-on! Highly recommended!"

"I have had 2 reiki sessions with McKenzie so far and will continue to integrate these sessions into my regular self care. I went in with an open mind, some previous experience with reiki had a wonderful first reiki. She was so kind and open hearted and held space for me. Our second session was even more impactful, she pulled a card for me during the session and afterwards we had time to reflect. Unprompted, she brought up so many specific and unbelievably validating points. I felt seen and cared for and am truly looking forward to our next appointments. I feel like they will just get better and better! So happy to have found her!"
