What to expect in a session

At the beginning of your session, Nyssa talks with you to determine what you would like to address during the session.  You may have a specific issue or may just be there to relax.  You will then lie down on a comfortable massage table, fully clothed.  Nyssa will give you a Reiki session while you relax and listen to soothing music.  At the end of the session, Nyssa talks with you about your experiences during the session.

History of Usui Reiki

Dr. Mikao Usui is the founder of Usui Reiki.  He discovered a method of healing while on a retreat on Mount Kumara.  Dr. Usui studied many subjects over the years, gaining knowledge in medicine, psychology, and spiritual development to name a few.  He became the secretary of Shinpei Goto, who later became the Mayor of Tokyo.  While on a 21-day retreat on Mount Kumara, he received the knowledge and ability to heal others without depleting his own energy.  He had an enlightening experience.

Usui started using Reiki on himself and then family members.  In 1922, he founded “Usui Reiki Ryoho Gakkai” (Usui Reiki Healing Society).  He launched a clinic, where he gave Reiki treatments and taught students Reiki.  Usui and his students went around after the Kanto earthquake giving Reiki treatments to those who were affected by the disaster.  Usui was recognized as someone who saved many lives after the Kanto earthquake, in 1923. Usui ended up teaching over 2,000 students and trained 16 teachers in his lifetime.  He died in 1926 at the age of 61.
