relax into deeper resonance with all that is
Reiki & Sound Healing
Reiki
Grounded in our own deep relaxation and conscious connection to Rei (spirit, mystery) and Ki (life force energy), we use gentle touch and loving presence to support & strengthen your body’s innate healing and rebalancing capacities.
To receive a Reiki treatment, one is typically laying or sitting down in a position that is as comfortable as possible. As the recipient, you do not need to do anything, think about anything, focus on anything, move your body in any way, be aware of the time, or even try to stay awake.
We offer Reiki as one of our main modalities because we deeply believe that regular practice of the art of non-doing and the art of receiving are crucial to physical, spiritual & relational health — and something which the modern world is deeply lacking.
Everyone can benefit from a Reiki treatment, regardless of your beliefs about spirituality or energy. When we give our mind and body the gift of time & space to do nothing, time to simply receive care & attention — clarity, healing & wholeness will naturally begin to emerge.
Sound Healing
What is sound healing (or “sound therapy”, or “sound bathing”)?
Sound healing instruments actively stimulate deep relaxation through a process known as brainwave entrainment. During a sound bath, it is not uncommon to experience drifting in and out of dream-like states, having creative and mystical visions, or feeling like one was able to catch up on a full night of sleep at the end of an hour-long session.
Private sound therapy sessions can include a vibrational massage, where we place singing bowls on various parts of your body and play them, inviting the vibrations of the bowl to deeply massage your physical as well as energetic body.
Just like Reiki, receiving a sound healing typically involves laying down, supporting the body to get as comfortable and relaxed as possible, and then “doing nothing” — just being, and allowing the sounds & vibrations to be received. As such, Reiki and Sound Healing combine together wonderfully to create experiences of deep relaxation for body, mind, heart & spirit.
Experience all the physiological and psychological benefits of the deep meditative state — in a completely non-efforting and non-doing way. 💫
We offer private Reiki + Sound Healing sessions for individuals, couples & groups
-
1-1 sessions
A 90 minute session with Kirien. It can include any combination of Reiki (using hands) and sound healing (using instruments) according to your needs. If you’re not sure, we’ll recommend splitting our time together equally between hands and instruments ✨
Price: €75
-
2-1 sessions
A 90 minute session with both of us - a double dose of care & attention in the same amount of time. Most frequently, one of us will be giving Reiki while the other plays sound healing instruments. We can also both give Reiki (with 4 hands) or both give sound healing.
Price: €130
-
Couples & duos (2-2)
Duo sessions always include both of us. We support the healing needs of each of you as individuals as well as for your relationship. Friends, family members & other “non-couple” duos are very welcome. Recommended if you are looking for a low-key date-night activity 🥰
Price: €150 for 90 min
-
Private groups
Private sound baths for groups on request - perfect for birthdays, weddings and other celebratory occasions, or just a nice time together “doing nothing” with friends. Contact us to explore possibilities. Pricing varies on group size, length of time and other logistical factors.
What happens in a session?
A standard session for 1 or 2 persons lasts up to 90 minutes and has this structure:
Intake conversation
We start with a check-in and conversation with you, about what brings you here and any healings intentions you are carrying. We take our time to listen to you. We also explain the practicalities of what to expect during a Reiki and Sound treatment, and clarify any boundaries or contraindications.
Arrival practice
We do a short practice together to support deepening into your healing intention and marking a transition between “ordinary consciousness” and the realms of wonder & mystery. This practice may include:
- Guided meditation
- Tarot and oracle cards
Reiki + Sound treatment
”How much” of the treatment time will be dedicated to Reiki vs. Sound Healing, who will perform what, which instruments will be used, etc — are based on mutual intuition and agreement about what would be most supportive. Any hands-on work or use of instruments on your body will be agreed on before the start of treatment.
Post-treatment debrief
In the final 15 minutes of our time together, you are welcome to give feedback and share anything about your experience. We may also share anything that came up for us on the practitioner side — and send you off with recommended resources or practices that may support integration.
Custom sessions and private small groups — Reiki & Sound can be combined with other practices for a total of 2-3+ hours.
