FAQs

Honestly, no. You can walk in fully unconvinced and your body will still respond, it doesn't wait for your brain to sign off first. Most of my regulars started out a little unsure and just decided to see for themselves.

Come try a session. I could hand you research and testimonials all day but the real answer is on the table, not in a paragraph.

Some version of "that was weird, I don't really have words for it." If you walk out a little speechless, that's usually the point working.

There's touch, yeah, but it's very gentle and happens at specific points as we go. This isn't an adjustment, nobody's cracking anything.

Depends on the person and depends on the day. Sometimes it's something moving through the body, sometimes it's your breath going somewhere unexpected, sometimes it's tears out of nowhere for no reason you can name. Your body picks the language, not you.

No, it works alongside that stuff, not instead of it. Different lane entirely.

This applies across the board, in-person, online, one-on-one, group, and courses.

Pregnancy and postpartum: Spinal Energetics isn't suitable during the first or third trimester, or during the first 3-6 months postpartum. If you're in your second trimester, this needs to come from a practitioner who's also a physiotherapist, GP, or chiropractor. The modality is generally safe, but in rare cases it can bring up trauma or a strong emotional response, and that's not something we risk during these windows.

Age: Not suitable for kids under 10. Ages 10-18 need a guardian present for the session. On the other end, I can treat clients up to 75, and anyone between 70-75 gets extra caution, mobility and capacity for the work get assessed case by case before we proceed.

Consent: Every new client fills out an intake form and signs consent before any session.

The following conditions mean I can't treat you with this modality, and I'll refer you to someone better equipped instead:

• Diagnosed severe PTSD
• Severe mental health conditions (bipolar, schizophrenia, psychosis)
• Currently on medication that alters brain chemistry (antidepressants, anti-anxiety meds, antipsychotics)
• Recent injuries, fractures, or surgeries
• Epilepsy
• History or diagnosis of aneurysms
• Cardiovascular issues or heart disease
• History of seizures
• Severe asthma
• Hospitalization for a psychiatric condition, emotional crisis, or spiritual emergence within the past 3 years
• Any other condition that would affect your ability to safely handle intense physical or emotional release

You're responsible for being upfront about all of this on your intake form. If something applies to you and it doesn't get flagged, that puts you at risk, not me, so please be honest.

Reiki is gentle and general, a broad energy reset. Spinal Energetics is targeted, specific work that your own body actually directs. There's an unwinding that happens here that Reiki doesn't quite get you to.

It's pulling from different modalities and using whatever combination actually helps you regulate your nervous system, rather than sticking to one method regardless of what you need that day.

The space gets cleared and reset energetically. You're welcome to be there for it, but you don't have to be, it works either way.

It's 15 or 30 minutes and it's a flow, not a back and forth Q&A. You bring what you're carrying, the cards do the talking.

An hour, unless something specific calls for more or less time.

Whatever you're comfortable in. That's really the only rule.

I keep it pretty quiet on my end. This is your space, not a conversation.

Yep. Group sessions are available for Spinal Energetics, breathwork, oracle card and aura readings, and past life regression.

Zoom. That's it, that's the setup.

Honestly, online can hit even harder. Distance doesn't dilute it, if anything it gives your nervous system less to perform for.

A phone, laptop, or iPad, and headphones if you've got them.

Whatever's open on the schedule, that's your window.

Payment is upfront. Need to cancel or reschedule? Give me 24 hours notice. Less than that and it's non-refundable.

Appointment only, no walk-ins.

Commack, NY.

Just ask, I've got options depending on what you're looking for.

All of them.

Yes, reach out and we'll figure something out.

Whatever comes up, let it come up. Sit with it, don't rush past it. Drink water and go easy on yourself for the next 24 hours.

Some people feel it after the first one. Three is a good rhythm to aim for, but really that's just the start of the work, not the finish line.

Yes. You're releasing stuff that's been stuck for years, sometimes decades. Think of it as an energy detox, the same way your body has to process before it clears.

You found your way here for a reason, even if you can't name it yet. Once you're in the room, you're the priority, full stop. Nobody else is going to take care of you the way you need if you don't start here. This is day one of something bigger than a single appointment.

I work with anyone 10 and up.
