Reiki with Betsy

“Betsy has given me Reiki on many occasions for healing.  She is a caring, committed, compassionate healer and Reiki certified through the lineage of its founder Dr Usui Shiki Ryoho.”
-Barbara McKenzie-Tervo

“My Reiki session with Betsy can only be described as magical. When I lay on the table, I was emotionally weak, tired, and mentally exhausted. Betsy asked me to set an intention. I focused on “be calm and focus.” As she placed her hands on my head, I felt the fire of love and compassion taking the stress out of my body. I wish I could get a session with Betsy every week to re-balance my energy. She is a channel between the great healer and the body. I felt so comfortable under her care that I dosed on and off several times. Thank you Universe for aligning Reiki with Betsy on my path.

Reiki is the Japanese word for universal life force energy. This Natural Healing Art involves light hands-on touch that supports wholeness and enhances deeper awareness. It is an anchor into Source and acknowledges the body’s innate capacity for healing.

Reiki promotes peace, calm, relaxation, rejuvenation inner quiet, stress reduction, clarity, pain relief, trauma/toxicity/negativity release, connection to self, sleep, and nourishment. By supporting the mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual bodies, Reiki recognizes the profound effect energy has on all aspects of being. In an increasingly fast-paced, yang society characterized by force, taking, and output, Reiki reconnects us to the slow spaciousness of yin energy defined by gentleness, allowing, and receiving.

Betsy completed her Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki training with Ann Ehringhaus on Ocracoke Island. Mikau Usui founded Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki over 100 years ago in Japan. To find out more about Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki, visit The Reiki Association.

“This was my first time receiving Reiki, and I felt as though the session began before I even lay on the table. The way Betsy spoke to me with such tenderness and kindness exuded genuine care and I could tell right away that she was devoted to my well-being. Buoyed by her soothing field of safety, my body relaxed and I was able to receive her healing touch. I could feel the vibrations within my heart return to coherence. The tension in my muscles relaxed and I experienced a felt sense of being held. It's as though my nervous system reset into a state of equanimity. Unbeknownst to me there was a blockage between my upper and lower body and Betsy seemed to intuit this as she concentrated on that part of my belly. Her hands are light yet powerful and she appears to be guided by a force from beyond. I left my session feeling happy and lightweight. I could breathe down into my diaphragm and I felt invigorated by this newfound oxygen flow. My mind, body, and heart felt aligned. From Betsy's authentic place of empathy arises great intuition for her technical skills to shine. I would recommend Betsy without reservation to anyone considering Reiki, and I look forward to returning to her myself!”

"Betsy's every action, every breath is compassionate. Her presence assisted me in grounding and fully relaxing into a state where healing and wellness can thrive. When she finished offering reiki, I immediately went into a sleep state and rested for quite some time to integrate all of the energy that had shifted during our session."
