SPACE TO RECEIVE
Reiki is a Japanese practice working with Qi, or universal life force energy. I practise Usui Reiki, the original Reiki system developed by Mikao Usui, working with the mind, body, emotions and spirit.
Reiki is gentle and comforting, offering a space to slow down, receive and reconnect with yourself. During a session, we work with the movement of energy, supporting the release of what feels blocked, stagnant or no longer belongs, while amplifying the energy that supports your own healing and wellbeing.
The treatment takes place with you lying down fully clothed, with Reiki offered through gentle touch, both directly and off the body. It works primarily with the energetic and etheric layers, helping to restore your energetic field and bring balance to the energy centres.
We begin with a short conversation about what you'd like to work with. This might be a particular area of your life or body, or something that emerges during the session. There is time afterwards to reflect, notice what has surfaced and gently return.
Please note: Reiki can complement conventional medical treatment, but is not a substitute for professional medical care.

RHYTHM & VIBRATION
A Reiki session woven together with the grounding rhythm and vibration of the buffalo drum.
The steady, repetitive rhythm can help quieten the thinking mind and draw your awareness further into the body. The deeply resonant vibrations give you something to listen to and feel, creating a different way into stillness and presence.
Alongside Reiki, we work with rhythm and vibration to support the movement of energy and bring your attention to what is happening in the body. The combination can be particularly supportive when you're feeling stressed or overwhelmed, disconnected from your body, finding it difficult to switch off, or wanting a more immersive Reiki experience.
You remain fully clothed throughout, lying down while receiving Reiki and the sound of the drum. The rhythm may be played around or over different areas of the body, depending on what feels appropriate during the session.
Together, Reiki and rhythm create a space to quieten the mind, drop into the body and listen inward.

RELEASE
The Threshold Journey is a four-week one-to-one experience combining creative practice, ritual and energy work for times of transition.
For the spaces between chapters, versions of yourself or ways of living. A transition, a decision, an ending, a beginning, or simply the feeling that you're ready shed.
This is a space to explore change rather than rush towards an answer. We work with your hands as much as your energy, using making, reflection and embodied practice to explore what is emerging.
Each week offers a different way into the work, bringing together energy practice, making, ritual and embodied exploration. The slower pace of working with creative practices and clay allows what is surfacing to be held, explored and given form.
You'll leave with a piece you've made yourself, alongside the work carried through the four weeks.
Enquire to explore whether this is the right time for you.

REST
RECEIVE FROM HOME
Reiki works with Qi, or universal life force energy, and can be offered without physical contact or being in the same room.
Distance sessions draw on the same Usui Reiki practice as an in-person treatment, with our attention guided towards the areas you'd like to work with and anything that emerges during the session.
Sessions take place over Google Meet. Find a quiet, comfortable space where you won't be disturbed. You can sit or lie down, close your eyes and simply receive.
Distance Reiki can be particularly useful when you're unable to get to the studio, during busy or transitional periods, or when you'd prefer to receive from your own space.
We begin with a short conversation before moving into the Reiki practice, followed by time afterwards to notice what arose and share anything you'd like to.
Please note: Distance Reiki can complement conventional medical treatment but isn't a substitute for professional medical care.

SHARED EXPERIENCE
A sound bath is an immersive experience using rhythm, vibration and sound to create space for rest, relaxation and presence.
Sound gives the mind something to follow while vibration brings awareness into the body.
The experience can be particularly beautiful as a shared practice, creating a collective pause from the usual pace of the day. Sessions can be shaped for retreats, private gatherings, celebrations and wellbeing events, with the instruments and format adapted to the group and space.
I create each session around the people I'm working with and the atmosphere you want to create. Depending on the setting, this might be a moment of stillness within a larger event or a dedicated space for rest, listening and reconnection. It can also be paired with ritual to create a memorable, unifying experience.

PRESENCE
Creative and embodied experiences designed around your group, gathering or occasion.
I bring together making, meditation, ritual, sound and energy work to create experiences that invite people to slow down, connect and play. The emphasis can be on making, rest, embodiment or shared experience, depending on what you're looking for.
A session might involve working with clay, guided meditation, ritual, sound, Reiki or other forms of energy practice, or a combination of these. The format is shaped around the people, intention and space available.
Workshops can be created for retreats, private gatherings, celebrations and wellbeing events, as well as smaller groups looking for something outside the usual workshop format.
Every experience is created from scratch, so pricing depends on group size, duration and location.
Get in touch to talk through what you have in mind.
"I left each session feeling so much... better. More relaxed, more balanced and with more energy. It felt easier and easier to face the other work I needed to do to recover.."

Reiki

Reiki is a Japanese technique using univeral energy to balance energy, reduce stress, provide a sense of deep relaxation and promote healing. When one's "life force energy" is low, we are more likely to get sick or feel stress, when it is high, we are happier, healthier and more capable of dealing with what life throws our way. Reiki helps you to restore your energetic equilibrium and raise your frequency.
-
It is administered by "laying on hands" but works mostly with the energetic and etheric layers of the body to restore the energetic field, balance your chakras and energy centres and release stored or unprocessed emotions.
-

Sound therapy
-
Sound healing is an ancient healing technique that can be traced back as early as 40,000 years ago across many cultures.
Science is catching up with this ancient healing modality and studies have verified that soothing, rhythmic vibrational sound activates the parasympathetic nervous system and signals to the body that it is safe to enter into its self-healing phase.
-
On a physical level, sound healing offers a whole host of health and wellbeing benefits which can help boost immunity, reduce anxiety, lower blood pressure and manage pain.
On more esoteric and subconcious levels, it can release trapped energy and emotions and balance the chakras and energy centres.Vibration and Frequency: Everything in the universe, including our bodies, is in a constant state of vibration. Each organ, tissue, and cell has its own unique vibrational frequency. When we are in a state of health, these frequencies are in harmony. However, when we experience stress, illness, or imbalance, our frequencies can become disrupted. Sound healing aims to restore harmony by using specific frequencies and vibrations.
Instruments and Techniques: Sound healing employs various instruments and techniques to create healing vibrations. Each instrument produces its own unique sound frequencies that can resonate with different parts of the body and energy centers (chakras).Relaxation and Stress Reduction: Sound healing induces a state of deep relaxation, similar to meditation, it calms the nervous system, slows down brain waves, and promotes a sense of peace and wellbeing.
Energy Clearing and Balancing: Sound vibrations have the ability to penetrate deep into the body, clearing energetic blockages and promoting the flow of vital energy (chi or prana). By working with specific frequencies and intention, we can target areas of imbalance and facilitate healing on a physical, emotional, and energetic level.
-
Sound healing is a holistic practice that utilises the power of sound vibrations to promote physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. It draws upon the ancient wisdom that sound has the ability to influence our bodies, minds, and spirits in profound ways.
Resonance and Entrainment: One of the principles behind sound healing is resonance, which occurs when two objects vibrate at the same frequency.
During treatments, I use sound healing instruments to produce tones and vibrations that resonate with my client’s body, helping to bring it back into balance. During the session, the body's rhythms sync up with external rhythms, such as the beat of a drum or the pitch of a singing bowl an help the client reach a medative, peaceful state.
Testimonials
“I was in a real funk in the lead up to my reiki appointment and in need of an energetic shift. Adele was welcoming and warm, providing a serene ambient setting for a deeply relaxing healing session. Adele’s motions and interpretations were intuitive and compassionate. I walked away feeling so much lighter and connected. Just the transformation I needed! Thank you!” - Ali“It’s hard to convey in words the depth of my experience with you, Adele!! I have worked with other Reiki healers, but I have never felt the energetic connection and healing work so clearly and deeply, you are truly gifted and I cannot wait to come back and work with you again! Thank you!!! x- Emily“Adele is very accommodating and holds space beautifully. I loved the choice of incense and soundscape. During the session, I felt super relaxed and cosy, observing the electricity-like current running through my body. I came out of it feeling instant changes in my energy. I've since been feeling very switched on and open. I even felt my throat chakra opening up, which was one goal Adele and I had discussed prior the treatment. Highly recommend!”- Françoise Selected Collaborations:
