“This was not my first time doing an energy work session however it was my first time doing an energy work session with somebody who was not close family. Melissa made me feel very relaxed and is so personable I immediately felt very comfortable. I found my reiki session to be really calming, I had been experiencing high levels of stress and feeling disconnected, and taking part in the reiki session has left me feeling connected to my body again and enabled me to put myself first in my every day life. One thing I really liked was how Melissa’s language changed my mindset, I was experiencing severe back pack that day and had purchased a heat patch to help heal the pain, and when Melissa was summarizing she said “I can feel a lot of love toward your lower back” and at the time I was convinced she was feeling the pain and the heat from the medicinal patch, whereas after reflection I saw she had recognised that I was giving love to my lower back by way of the patch. That small comment changed my own mindset from thinking about the pain I was feeling, to concentrating on what I was healing instead. I honestly felt completely rejuvenated the next day, back almost healed and full of beans again! My session was over distance which I really appreciated because I live in London which is a very different environment to where Melissa is in Hawaii, so seeing her home and hearing tropical noises really elevated me away from urban life and definitely helped in my relaxation. Melissa was very professional throughout and after I was delivered back into my body I really enjoyed watching Melissa for a short while as she finished up her practise. Beautiful. Her interpretation afterward really resonated, she picked up on a few personal things I hadn’t shared with anyone and had been stewing over in my head, and having that finally out in the open was really freeing, I particularly enjoyed how Melissa could tell which direction I hula hooped because her hands were dragged around in a circle! I would completely recommend for someone to do a Reiki session, I feel like my mental wellbeing had improved in these few days as well as my physical, and carving out that time for myself has definitely shifted my mood to a happier, positive one. Thank you so much Melissa!” 🐝

"This was my 3rd time receiving energy work, but the other sessions were a long time ago, & Melissa explained the process of it perfectly to me. I definitely went into the session able to really open to the energy and healing after she explained it. I found my session to be really wonderful, relaxing, uplifting and enlightening. One thing I really liked was what she shared with me after the session. She told me what came up in each area as she moved from my head down through my body, and was completely tuned in to me, her intuition is spot on. She brought to my attention certain blockages and shared messages from my body to me, plus ways to work through these things. I also love that she pulled a couple of cards after and these also held very meaningful messages for me. I'm now putting this wisdom into action. I really feel like our session made a difference in a positive way both physically and emotionally, I feel lighter, happier and more focused. I've been putting Melissa's messages and suggestions into action and I feel this is helping me move through the blockages too. yay! Our session was via zoom, and I lay on my bed with my phone on a tripod, I felt like we were in the room together which was perfect. Melissa is extremely professional, and super approachable, she has an incredible way of communicating to put a person at ease and explain things. I recommend someone do a reiki session for the reason of having pure, universal, love energy flowing into your body, it’s a beautiful gift to be able to welcome in at any time, especially now when there's so much confusion and tension in the world. Melissa's wisdom and intuition was impressive, I realize Reiki is allowing the energy to come through, but I feel she is a true healer and by working with Reiki energy she will help facilitate lot of healing and realignment.”

“This was my first time doing a true energy work session with Melissa. I came in with an open mind, not knowing completely what to expect. Although I had friends who had practiced or received energy work in the past, I was a bit nervous before I had met Melissa, as I didn’t know if energy work was for me. As soon as I met Melissa, I felt completely at ease. She welcomed me into the space and I felt like I had known her for years. She answered any questions I had immediately, and any preconceived notions of what energy work was, was completely dispelled. Melissa had a calming presence and I felt at ease to work with her. I found my session to be entirely enlightening. I went into this session with little to no expectations. At the end of my session, I had felt emotions and thoughts that confirmed a lot of what was internalized but not verbalized. One thing I really liked was the specificity of the energy work- I felt refreshed by visiting some of the internalized dialogue that now became conscious thoughts and feelings after the session. I noticed physical shifts as well, including sensory experiences in both my feet and hands. This was surprising, as a newcomer to energy work who had little to no expectations as to what would happen during my session. My in person session was in a professional, yet comfortable and inviting space. The interpretation afterwards resonated so much with what I was trying to verbalize, I was surprised how in tune Melissa was with my internal dialogue. The interpretation was specific and accurate. It was a positive way to take the vague notions I had been feeling and bring them to a place where I could assess how to move forward with personal progression. As someone who had never had a reiki session, and to be honest slightly skeptical of what to expect, I would wholeheartedly recommend a session with Melissa! I think it’s an important portion of my growth to re-evaluate and assess internal dialogue and feelings, and I look forward to my next session!”

PET REIKI: “My little problem kitty has changed so much since our session. It’s incredible really. Her whole demeanor has changed and she hasn’t pee’d in the house since … and I can pat her. She hasn’t dug at screens or displayed any anxious behavior since. I’ve changed my behavior around her too and think that I was able to be conscious and provide her with what she needed ( emotionally) finally”

-Jaclyn

“Melissa answered all of my questions and anything that was happening in my life that was affecting me, we took note of in our session. During the session I really liked having one palm up and one palm down, and I could feel the energy going into my palm that was facing up, it was a very cool experience. The rest of the week I was very relaxed, and I noticed a few days afterward I wasn’t so tense from overthinking or over-analyzing anything. The environment was relaxing, and we were in a cleansed space. Melissa catered to whatever I was going through, and really gave me a relaxing, happy experience.”

-Sofia

“I found my energy work session to be inspiring, nurturing, healing, activating, and informative. It’s not possible to choose just one thing that I really liked… I loved it all, I enjoyed learning about energy healing; and I loved the breath work that we started with which ignited my body, and I felt full of energy. Then, the energy work when I laid on the table was so relaxing- I saw so many amazing colors, and could feel so much warmth coming from Melissa’s hands. Afterwards I felt protected, content, and happy. I really enjoyed the environment as well, we were surrounded by trees and birds, I felt immersed in nature. I definitely recommend someone schedule an energy work session for themselves.”

-Lucy

“It was my first time receiving an energy healing session, and Melissa helped me to understand what to expect from the experience. I found the session to be peaceful and relaxing. One thing I liked was the preparation and guided meditation to relax. I felt so peaceful and my body and muscles were at ease and felt lighter. Melissa was very professional, and even though we did this via FaceTime, I felt I was right there with her. I would recommend a session to anyone seeking spiritual enlightening and/or a very relaxing experience.

-Theresa

“My session was very relaxing. It was a great excuse to carve out some time to spend on myself. After the session, I felt like I had a renewed sense of energy. I felt more patient and able to take on the world! I recommend energy work to help calm your mind. When I felt like my mind was starting to go off the tracks, Melissa’s calm energy helped ease me right back into a meditative state.”

-Amanda

“This experience was my first time receiving an energy work session, naturally I was a bit apprehensive about it and what it would entail. Luckily for me (and my nerves), Melissa answered all my questions thoroughly and I had a better understanding of the process. I found the session to be something that I didn’t know I needed. The entire session was so calming and relaxing. I felt comfortable throughout the entire process. It was a great way to realign my body and mind. I felt a lot more spiritually balanced in the days afterward. It was kind of like this hit my body’s reset button. Melissa is a true professional, and knows exactly how to make you feel at home.”

-Morgan

“I’d no experience of energy healing before my distance session with Melissa, but she guided me through every step of the process, making sure I was comfortable and at ease. We started with a short meditation, which I really enjoyed and will definitely revisit in the future. When reconnecting after the session, Melissa was able to accurately highlight areas of stress and discomfort within the body, and provide insights for working through these issues. She was extremely in tune with me, even working from a distance. I hadn’t expected to receive such in-depth insight, and was very grateful for Melissa’s knowledge and guidance. She approached the whole session with such warmth and compassion that I really loved and appreciated. I would highly recommend Melissa to anyone looking to start their energy work journey, as she will put you completely at ease and surprise you with such remarkable intuition and kindness.”

-Sarah F.

“I am so grateful to have had my first experience of energy healing with Melissa. I was always curious about what an energy work session would be like because I’ve heard so much about it. Melissa created a really beautiful and sacred space that felt comfortable and relaxing. She was very attentive and attuned. She asked me questions that made me feel at ease and she listened to me very carefully. She was genuinely curious about how I was feeling. I felt that she listened to what I needed in the moment, and she even created a gentle movement and release practice before beginning the session. While peacefully resting on the energy work table, I would feel warm sensations in different areas of my body. After the session I felt calm, relaxed and peaceful. If you’ve never received an energy work session before, or are curious about having a session, I highly recommend booking with Melissa!”

-Haunani

“This was my first energy work session and Melissa did a great job explaining everything to me and making me feel comfortable. She spent a lot of time talking with me beforehand, and made me feel at ease and like she cared about my overall well being. I found my our session together to be very relaxing and peaceful. I felt like it was a great addition to other types of self care that I have in my life. One thing I really liked was the debriefing afterwards about the experience. It was cool to hear what Melissa noticed during the process and to compare that to what I noticed. Afterwards I felt lighter, both physically and mentally. The environment and professionalism were both excellent- it was a very peaceful experience. I would recommend someone do a session for themselves as a form of self care. I could feel the healing benefits of working with someone who genuinely cares about others. I also appreciated the sense of peace and lightness that I felt after my session. I would 100% recommend seeing Melissa for an energy work session.”

-Sarah

“I had never experienced an energy work session before so when my longtime childhood friend, Melissa was offering them I jumped at the chance. The one concern was the distance. I live in N.Y. Was it possible for energy to be transmitted miles and miles away via technology? As it turns out… YES! My first session I was a little nervous not knowing what to expect. Mel intuitively offered a grounding meditation to start. It was just what I needed. I felt as though my initial experience was to get comfortable with just allowing the energy to settle and be. So I scheduled a second. This time I fully fell into a space where I was able to receive Melissa’s talent. (Even with my outdoor house construction going on!). It left me with a feeling of peace that lasted days after. Melissa’s innate ability to know exactly what her client needs in each moment grants you, the recipient, the gift of expansion with comfort and safety. I can’t wait to see what my next experience holds.”

-Jennifer

“Melissa has always been someone very open and accepting of all thoughts and people. Even though I was already comfortable with her, she made me comfortable with this being my first energy work session. Our chat beforehand let me know what to expect and there were no pressures weighing on me. The session was so moving emotionally in my experience; incredibly cleansing and healing. The part I’ve really been hanging onto is our discussion afterward. She relayed the feelings she’d received and they were exact thoughts I had during her work. I left our session feeling lighter and focused on the goals I’d set prior. I’ve already bought a gift certificate for a loved one and can’t wait to have another session. Melissa is truly one of a kind as a human being and her devotion to this work is unparalleled. 10/10 would recommend.”

-Alexx

“This was my first energy work experience but I couldn’t dream up a better practitioner to begin with than Melissa. As with many firsts for me, I was a bit anxious and didn’t know what to expect. She explained it beautifully and I felt comfortable to let her know what was going on with me (personally, physically and all around wellness). Using that she was able to hone in on specific areas she knew I needed help with. By the end I felt so calm and serene in a way I never have before. Not to mention, she has you pull a tarot-type of card that ended up being scary relevant to my exact situation! I can’t recommend Melissa enough. We did a follow up distance (FaceTime) session that was equally as rewarding. It was nice to be able to do some healing from home in my own bed. I would definitely suggest a session with her! Thank you Melissa!!”

-Nicole

“Melissa is a freaking gem! She and I had a session during the full moon right before I started my second semester of grad school, and I was feeling all tangled up and was being overpowered by negative self talk. Melissa held space for exactly where I was; she helped me get comfortable with a gorgeous guided meditation, and connected to me and my energy through the session. We debriefed after, and she validated so many of the physical, emotional, spiritual things I felt while in the session. She helped me learn to lead from the heart, and unlocked parts of me that I didn’t even know were locked in the first place. You will absolutely benefit from spending time with this wonderful healer.”

-Suzie

“My session with Melissa was so warm, safe and comfortable that I didn’t even realize that two hours had passed. We began the session with a guided relaxation that allowed me to unwind and drop into a healing space after a hectic day. This was my first experience with a session through FaceTime. The deep relaxation and comfort created felt as if I was with her in person. After a guided meditation Melissa performed energy work and then brought me back with the sound of a singing bowl. This sound radiated through my body leaving me feeling as though everything was back in its rightful place. I appreciate the gentle energy of this session, it allowed me to work through some complicated thoughts while also remaining grounded. Melissa is a great conductor for holding a space of love and acceptance. Our human experiences leave us sometimes with stress and fear and this session was a reminder of the peace and love that is ever abundant in this world. I feel so grateful for my experience and look forward to my next session.”

-Delilah

“This was my first energy work session. Melissa informed me of what to expect before hand and made feel very comfortable. I found my our session to be relaxing, soothing, and healing. I really liked how gentle and nurturing Melissa's touch was when she did use touch. When she was working energetically I could feel her healing energy without touch! I could actually feel the warmth of her energy; afterwards I felt a sense of lightness and general wellbeing. We met in-person, our session was on the beach at sunrise which was very peaceful. I can not recommend energy work in general because I have only had a session by Melissa. But I would recommend Melissa as a practitioner because I really felt a big sense of energetic opening from my session. With Melissa I felt completely safe and cared for. Can't wait for my next session with her!”

-Anna

“This was my first energy work session and it was done over distance. I found my the session to be a very peaceful, comfortable, and relaxing experience. Afterwards, I had a feeling of comfort and contentment, and just a pleasant feeling for the rest of the day. During the night when I would wake up, the feelings of worry or past regrets that normally trouble me at that time, were replaced by feelings of inner peace. The following day, I wasn’t bothered by my leg pain, good stuff! I would recommend a session to anyone needing or wanting to feel relaxed and to have a wave of comfort wash over their bodies.”

-Joe

“I had the most beautiful energy healing session with Melissa. Although I’ve done energy work for a long time I’ve never received much Reiki and it was a beautiful session. As someone who is very energetically sensitive Melissa’s beautiful flowing energy was the bath of nurturing I really need to drink up. I felt the energy move through my system and create a whole new spaciousness I was seeking. After processing a bit more the last couple of days I feel more peaceful and centered in my heart and open to the new pathways opening up in front of me. Thank you so much Melissa. You have a real gift for holding the space for healing. “

-Georgia

“I received a beautiful distance healing session with Melissa. She first guided me into a somatic experiencing session, where she gradually led my awareness into my body. Taking the time to tune in and acknowledge what was present in my body felt like an opening of the door to receiving the healing energy. During our session, I noticed vibrating energy beginning to flow freely within my body, especially in my arms. I felt safe and nurtured in Melissa’s presence as I floated between waking and sleeping. I love how she brings the practice full circle with a gentle debriefing and card pull at the end. I left the session feeling uplifted and energized, as though I had shifted any stuck energy that was formerly present in my body. If you feel called to receive a guided and supported reiki healing session, I highly recommend connecting with Melissa.”

-Steph

“I have only had a few energy work sessions in my life, and really didn’t know what to expect from my session with Melissa. She immediately put me at ease with her thoughtful consultation where we were able to clarify an intention for the session, and how she would be guiding me throughout. The energy healing itself felt so magical to me- the scents, the music, and the moonlight, along with her healing energy, was such a beautiful treat. I had gone to see her feeling so energetically scattered and left feeling so deeply nourished. Thank you so much Melissa!”

-Tara

“The energy work session I had with Mel felt super relaxing and safe. She really helped me understand more of what my body needs, which I need to hear sometimes! Her interpretations were spot on and also helpful. I’d recommend her to anyone- especially those that need that nurturing love, she’s the one!”

-Margaret

“After one session with Melissa, my back pain went from a 7 to waking up the next morning with ZERO pain. I have been skeptical of Reiki in the past, but Melissa has such a relatable way of approaching it that I was drawn to work with her. Her healing touch helped relax and heal my back, as well as my energy. So grateful to have found her!”
