About Joy

“It felt like finding the name for something I understood.”

I didn’t discover this way of living. I grew up in it.

I was born in Calcutta, India, and moved to the United States when I was nine. I was raised in my culture with spirituality, repetition, affirmations, and meditation as key parts of a healthy life. You could say that long before I knew the name of my future practice, I was already working with divine awareness and energy.

What drew me to Reiki was my sister-in-law asking if I would go to a Reiki seminar with her. When I looked into it, Reiki didn’t feel like something new. It felt like finding the name for something I understood.

I began my Reiki journey in 2005, as a young mother with two beautiful kids. Reiki helped me ground myself and take care of my family, and I was able to teach my kids how energy works, including working with different stones for chakra healing.

In 2011, I was diagnosed with Chiari malformation and a tethered spinal cord, and I had brain surgery that year. Afterward, I had lost my connection with my body. I knew I had the tools to reconnect with my energy, but I needed to put everything I knew into practice. Slowly but surely, as I recovered, I reconnected with that part of myself.

In 2021, my sister-in-law and I took the Usui Holy Fire Reiki Master class together. It was so profound that it brought me to the highest plane. I found my center, and I found my purpose.

Now everything I have learned has led me to this moment. As I begin my Reiki practice, my vision is to help others experience the same sense of healing, clarity, and balance that Reiki has brought into my own life. I look forward to serving my community with compassion, intention, and an open heart.

Joy

What is Reiki

A gentle practice, explained plainly.

Reiki is a Japanese practice that began in the early 1900s. During a session you rest on a padded table, fully clothed, while I place my hands lightly on or just above you, moving slowly from head to feet. The room is quiet. Most people simply describe it as deeply relaxing.

What it is

An hour of stillness, light touch, and focused care. Time set aside for you to rest.

What it isn’t

Medical care. I don’t diagnose or treat conditions, and Reiki doesn’t replace your doctor or therapist. It can sit comfortably alongside the care you already have.

What you need to believe

Nothing. Come rest, and see how you feel. If all you take home is an hour of real quiet, that’s still a gift.

Your first visit

What to expect, step by step

  1. Arrive and settle

    We sit and talk for about ten minutes. You fill out a short intake form, tell me anything you’d like me to know, and ask any questions.

  2. Rest on the table

    You lie down fully clothed, shoes off, with a blanket if you like. I work quietly with light touch, or hands just above you if you prefer.

  3. Come back slowly

    Take your time getting up. Have some water, and share whatever you noticed, or nothing at all. There’s no rush.

Questions

Good questions to ask

What should I wear?

Whatever is comfortable. You stay fully clothed and only take off your shoes.

Is it like a massage?

No. There’s no rubbing or pressure. My hands rest lightly on you or just above you, and you can ask for no touch at all.

Do I have to believe in Reiki?

Not at all. Plenty of people come curious or skeptical. Just come rest, and see how you feel.

Can Reiki replace my doctor or therapist?

No. Reiki is not medical or psychological treatment. Please keep following the advice of your health care providers.

What if I fall asleep?

Many people do. That’s perfectly fine.

How do I pay?

Card or cash at your session. Online payment is coming soon.
