Reiki Master Deborah Gaylord and her fellow practitioners will bring the "Gift of Reiki" to our annual holiday wellness support group on Friday, December 11. Each year, Reiki practitioners visit our December group to generously share their healing talents with Lyme disease patients. This lovely tradition began in 2010 when Reiki Master Ellie Kirk first joined us. The program is free and open to patients and their family members.

Reiki is an ancient Japanese healing technique for stress reduction, relaxation, and restoration of balance and health based on the principle that "life force energy" flows through us. It is administered by "laying on hands" on or above a fully-clothed person.

Reiki gently treats the whole person: physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. It strengthens one's natural ability to heal. Results after a session include feelings of peace and well-being.

Deborah began her personal quest healing in 1999. She became a Reiki Master in 2001. Her mission is to share with others what she has learned and experienced which has brought greater clarity and happiness in her life. Her desire is to bring peace and calm to others through healing energy treatments and dialogue.

Deborah Gaylord can be reached at 203-733-4535. She has an office in Ridgefield and also makes home visits for those who cannot travel.
