FAQ
Energy healing is tapping into and focusing universal source energy or spirit with the intent to heal your body in the most natural and holistic way possible. We are simply recalibrating and harmonizing the flow of energy at a cellular level. Jamie uses her gifts as a certified reiki master along with knowledge of the quantum field to facilitate your shift into a more balanced and aligned state of wellbeing.
A distance attunement is a technique within the system of Reiki and other energy work modalities that enables you to focus and send energy beyond the limitations of time and space. Reiki masters have been given special attunements and symbols in order to conduct these sessions. It expands the practitioner's ability to transmit spiritual energy beyond physical touch. The name of this particular symbol in Reiki is Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen. It holds a general meaning of: "No past, no present, no future" or it can have the meaning of "The Buddha in me contacts the Buddha in you". Since energy can travel across distance, space and time, it is very powerful and can help heal various past traumas on all levels of an individuals being; physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.
Reiki is an ancient form of Japanese alternative therapy commonly referred to as energy healing and deals with the subtle energy fields in and around the body. The word Reiki comes from the Japanese word (Rei) which means “Universal Life” and (Ki) which means “Energy”. In China this energy field is referred to as chi or qi and in India it is called prana. Reiki is not affiliated with any particular religion or religious practice. It is not massage nor is it based on belief or suggestion. It is a subtle and effective form of energy work using spiritually guided life force energy to promote optimum balance and wellbeing.
A typical reiki session lasts between 20 and 90 minutes. You’ll meet with Jamie prior to your appointment, or for distance attunements, have a brief conversation via text or phone to discuss your goals, expectations and/or intentions for the session. Let Jamie know about any symptoms you want addressed or if there are places in the body on which you’d like her to focus. Also, let her know if you have any injuries or places that are sensitive to touch.
For office sessions, you’ll be instructed to lie down on a treatment table in a quiet relaxing room and covered with a soft blanket. During some sessions you may be provided with headphones allowing you to listen to soft relaxing music or a guided meditation to help quiet the mind. When your mind is quiet it allows the energy to flow more freely throughout the body. For the most part there will be little to no talking during the session. However, please feel free to let Jamie know if there’s something you need to feel more comfortable or to share what you’re experiencing.
She will move her hands around your body. They may touch you lightly or hover just above your body.
You may experience sensations in the body such as coolness, heat or tingling. Some people report seeing visualizations such as colors or pictures, or having memories appear. In some cases you may experience an emotional release such as crying or laughter.
In the case of distance attunements, you will be asked to find a quiet space where you won't be distracted so that you may allow the energy to do it's work.
Shifts in energy happen immediately, while the integration process may take days to weeks depending on the individual's goals and level of allowing. Try to permit whatever arises to pass without attaching too much meaning to it. Your experiences may become deeper the more you connect with the energy.
Wear clean, loose-fitting, comfortable clothing. You may wish to wear natural fabrics such as cotton, linen, or silk. Remove your shoes, jewelry, and glasses before your session, and keep your phone switched off or leave it behind as the frequencies can interfere with the flow of energy and your personal stillness of mind.
The cost of an energy session with Jamie varies depending on the duration of the session and type of session that you choose. Further information can be found on the services page.

When we work together, it is extremely likely you will feel or see something during your session. In my personal experience approximately 85% of people report some type of physical or emotional sensations which they directly correlate with the energy work. There are some who notice their shifts during the next few days following the session with a very small percentage who report nothing.
Sensations can be very subtle and may be overlooked by individuals less accustomed to receiving energy work or those who carry more resistance. However, the more familiar one becomes with these techniques, the more heightened their level of awareness becomes and they begin to notice even the slightest shifts of energy.
Nope! Belief is not at all required for it to work. However, if you are in a resistant state of mind, you may inadvertently block the energy. There is no assertion in universe; only attraction. We all have free will which means no one can ever force anything on you. It’s nice if you simply approach the energy session with an open mind and allow yourself to receive the benefits the energy is able to provide. Often people are surprised at the profound ways in which they experience the energy shifts.
Some people may experience bouts of laughter or crying for no apparent reason, diarrhea, extreme tiredness, increased levels of energy, feeling hot or cold, increased urination, swooning or tingling sensations, or traveling points soreness throughout the body. Similar to what many observe after a deep tissue massage. The reason for this is that the energy is shifting and recalibrating throughout your body. A cleansing process has been triggered and toxins are being released. These effects typically subside in 24-48 hours. Water is very important at this time; it acts as a conduit for the energy as well as aiding in the release of toxins. Additionally it is helpful to eat nourishing foods, avoid stimulants such as caffeine or alcohol, increase alone time to separate your energy from others, and simply relax and be good to yourself. Let the energy do its thing.
