Jenny Patterson-Kerr, M.A.
is a Reiki Practitioner and a
Reiki Master apprentice. She has been giving Reiki treatments for over 20
years. Reiki or Universal Life
Force Energy is an ancient healing source that Tibetan monks used long ago in
their meditative and healing practices.
Jenny uses her hands to gently guide and channel the energy into your
body for a relaxing and soothing experience. She intuits where energy may be
stuck and gently releases these places of dis-comfort to allow your body’s
natural healing mechanisms to flow and be supported in its journey toward
integration and wholeness. Since August, 2010, Jenny has been in training as a Reiki Master apprentice. During the early part of 2012, Jenny will be attuned as a Reiki Master Teacher. She is very excited about this upcoming endeavor and then she will be ready to start teaching Reiki I and Reiki II to all those interested in receiving this energy awakening. Stay tuned for further details.

Moment; Authentic Movement: Moving to your own drum beat; Communication Skills
