Joanne Verikios is a trained, attuned and qualified Reiki healer based in Redland Bay, Queensland, Australia.
In addition, Joanne is a horse-loving, powerlifting, belly-dancing, award-winning author, public speaker, podcast guest, retired executive public servant, recovering perfectionist, property investor, renovator, health and lifestyle consultant and uncoordinated (but improving) karate student.
She loves a morning walk, a good book, holidays involving a beach and fun times with people she loves. Joanne is an advocate for eating well, running a healthy home and doing things that raise her vibration. (She's also a firm believer in the 80/20 rule – it’s what you do 80% of the time that counts: this conveniently allows her to indulge her penchants for drinking white wine, eating dark chocolate and watching Nordic noir!)
Reiki is a key part of Joanne's lifestyle and philosophy.
In her own words, "I am absolutely passionate about Reiki, not only as part of my own healing journey , but also because of the joy of sharing the amazing potential of this safe, gentle, natural, complementary therapy with others. Reiki can help everyone to transform their relationship with their mental, emotional, spiritual and physical health, just like it has done for me. Through intuitive Reiki energy work, along with science-based nutritional, weight management and body care advice, I guide and empower you with the tools and confidence you need to address deficiencies and imbalances; to take control and to move towards optimal health and happiness."
Joanne's goal is to share the benefits of Reiki and to use her skills, intuition and empathy to provide every client with a relaxing, restorative, personalised experience.
- Reiki IIReiki is a hands-on energy healing method developed by Mikao Usui in 1922. What sets it apart is the attunements passed from Teacher/Master to student, opening up their energy fields. Reiki involves transferring universal life force energy from practitioner to client, with hands placed on or above specific body locations. Symbols are used with different intentions, visualized or drawn. Reiki can be done in person or through distant healing, lasting 60-90 minutes. It aids in pain relief, healing, relaxation, and balancing chakras and aura energy. Clients remain clothed on a massage table during sessions.
