Reiki
Illuminations, and our Reiki Practitioner, Dorothy Hooper believes Reiki healing to be the most effective and simple way to achieve inner beauty and healing on all levels. Today there is a steady increase of Reiki being integrated into the allopathic community. We see this in the doctor’s office as well as in hospitals. There are many benefits connected to this gentle healing art. Research states that Reiki has been beneficial in supporting a healthy immune system, regulating blood pressure and heart rate, decreasing stress, and more.

What should I expect from my Reiki Sessions with Dorothy?
Each session is as unique as the patient; so each session will vary. Dorothy’s normal Reiki session will last between 50 and 60 minutes and takes place on a massage table. Comfortable clothing is a must, as you will be turning over half way through your session. Gentle hand placements are used by Dorothy starting at your feet and following the entire course of your body. Dorothy session’s can often combine different modalities that she has learned through the years such as: cranial sacral, visceral massage (un-winding the belly, or belly massage), hot stone massage, chakra clearing with cold stones and intuitive channeling. A general sense of calm and relaxation is felt during most sessions, often referred to as “Reiki slumber”. Other experiences range from: tingling sensations, flashing lights, seeing colors, and visualizations.
Who is Dorothy Hooper?
Dorothy has spent most of her life as an artist, and discovered Reiki while seeking out relief from “a pain in her neck” after too many years of painting ceilings as a faux finisher. Reiki was the only modality that was able to relieve her from the physical and emotional pain that she was experiencing. A “life-long learner”, she started taking courses in Reiki, which has turned into a career, a passion and most importantly, a way of life. Dorothy has studied with several Reiki Masters here in Nevada and California. Her most profound lessons have come from her studies with Native American Shamans; because of their intense love for the earth and all of the animals who share it. Dorothy really felt a connection and an increase in her Reiki abilities once she started using Hot Stones and Cold Stones (since they come from The Earth) in her Reiki Practice. Dorothy also loves giving Reiki to Canines. Dorothy anticipates finishing her Reiki Mastership this year.

Testimonials
My health has suffered greatly for the last two years from Lupus. Lupus is a disease where your own body directly attacks itself and can manifest in many ways. In my countless hours of research for relief from this problem I decided to try Reiki for my personal healing after exhausting many Western medicine solutions.
Part of my Western Medicine regimen is to take immuno-suppresive drugs which leave me compromised to many illnesses. Since starting Reiki I have been both pain free and have thankfully made it through the winter without getting ill. Reiki has for me become a source of calming and healing I could never have attained on my own.
Positive energy work has had a major impact on my life and wellness. To my knowledge health is only one aspect of what Reiki can do for you. Reiki has changed my life and I hope many other people will use the healing power Dorothy Hooper offers to increase their happiness, health and positive outlook on life!
Life is a journey and anything that can make it better should not be ignored. Thank you Dorothy for helping me on my journey to peace and wellness. Your talent, wisdom and calming influence are beyond belief.

I have been seeing Dorothy Hooper off and on now, for several years for Reiki treatments and have found that it has been a great resource during times of stress and turmoil in my life. I have a very stressful job and at times it gets the best of me. I find that after a session with Dorothy’s calming-relaxing hands I have a feeling like I can take on anything! She also has helped me deal with some past issues in my life through her Reiki sessions and “gentle talks”, and for that I am truly grateful.

During my pregnancy, I found sleeping extremely difficult. This caused me irritability and stress to the point of utter frustration. I sought out new ways in desperation to relieve my symptoms and came across Reiki. In just one session, I discovered the healing touch that would be my relief from my pregnancy symptoms. After more than 5 treatments, I can say that Reiki has helped me relax during everyday life as well as helping me ease into a more peaceful and restful sleep. Knowing the benefits of Reiki, I will continue to see Dorothy long after my pregnancy to help balance my everyday life.
