We know that it can be frightening to prepare for a surgical procedure. And the anxiety levels can be off the charts when preparing to start your chemotherapy treatments. While your body is in "fight or flight" mode, it can't focus on healing what ails you. The power and energy of your mind, body and spirit are focused on keeping you alert and sustaining your safety.
Undergoing Reiki healing before surgery can prepare your body to "receive" the procedure, rather than fight it.
Reiki during chemotherapy can calm your nervous system and allow it to be open to the healing of the drug, not think of it as poison harming you.
Your body naturally wants to heal itself - always. However your mind and your thoughts are powerful, and can block your body's work by instilling fear and anxiety. Reiki sessions can help you get out of your head, and prevent you from sabotaging your body's natural ability to heal itself.
You do not have to be a bystander in your medical journey. You can play an active part in what is happening, and tap into the power that is your life force.
Empower yourself to heal more easily from surgery or while living cancer.
PREPARE FOR SURGERY/CHEMO WORKSHOP - 60 mins
(in person & remote)
$125.00
Learn mind-body techniques to calm pre-operative jitters by feeling peaceful, open & welcoming of the procedure. We will help you to visualize your recovery and set up a daily routine before and after the surgery to turn worries into your own healing energy. Using these techniques often lessens anxiety before the procedure, reduces the use of pain medication and speeds recovery. This workshop is best done on the phone or over Zoom.

REIKI & PALLIATIVE CARE - 75 mins (in person & remote)
$122.00
Palliative care focuses on improving quality of life for those with any serious illnesses. Care can start at diagnosis and continue through partial or full treatment.
Reiki is a beautiful complement to traditional palliative care methods as we focus on managing your stress, pain, symptoms and other distressing aspects of your illness. This is done in a gentle manner with a goal of supporting your physical, emotional and spiritual self.
Regular Reiki while managing an illness can greatly reduce symptoms of fatigue and feelings of helplessness, as well as getting a handle on that "monkey mind" that can take over our thoughts day and night.

REIKI & HOSPICE - 75 mins (in person & remote)
$122.00
At Taproot we believe that every aspect of hospice care should be dignified and honor the life that you have lived. Every person deserves dignity, care and love at this time.
Reiki while in hospice care can calm your nerves, help to manage your pain and quiet the mind, so you can focus on what is most important to you at this time.
Reiki care can also help you to gently dissolve fear and deeply settle into a soul-level acceptance of passing from this life. Family and friends can also be included in the Reiki sessions and together we can foster a sense of calm and embrace.
