Reiki is a gentle, hands-on healing massage technique that is an effective modality in clearing and rebalancing the energy centers of the body, and alleviating physical, emotional, mental and spiritual blockages.  The client lays down on the massage table fully clothed and the practitioner places her hands in a special series of positions on the client’s body, crown to toes, front and back.  Reiki is appropriate for conditions ranging from fatigue to allergies, headaches to PTSD.  It is an effective stand-alone therapy as well as an excellent complement to other healing modalities. 55 minutes $75

Terry Bridgwood, Reiki Healer

Terry was born into a family whose father was a dowser and would take her along to find the ideal spot to dig wells for water.  Her mother was an intuitive and often knew events were going to happen before they did, and encouraged Terry’s love and appreciation for nature and all of its gifts.  Thus, she had realizations at an early age that life as we know it is pretty magical and divine.

The oldest of five siblings, it seemed natural to continue to love and nurture children, and she studied at University of Maine at Orono, receiving her BS in Child Development and Social Services.  After furthering her education at the Gesell School of Human Development she began her career as a Child Development Specialist.   Seeing and feeling the emotional and physical needs of children and their families strengthened her dedication to do more, and she began to take classes in Reflexology and Aromatherapy.

Her desire was further re-awakened when her younger brother Michael lost his battle with non-hodgkin's lymphoma.  She began searching for answers in alternative healing and as life happens was introduced to Elizabeth Rainbow Dancer, world renowned Healer, Shaman, Quantum Healing Hypnotist, and Reiki Master and Teacher.  Terry jumped on the opportunity to be taught and attuned by Elizabeth one on one, and she knew that she had found her Path.  She continued her Reiki teaching with Judy Copp, a brilliant Reiki and Energy Healer and Teacher of A Higher Balance.  Intertwined with her passion for Reiki Healing, Terry has spent the past several years practicing and studying Buddhism.  She continues to study and practice with Master Meditator Douglas Veenhof and Lama Marut.  She believes that we are all interconnected and have the same desire to love and be loved. Terry has been called an intuitive empath and she continues to use this along with her Reiki and love to help heal.

"I had my first (of many, I hope!) reiki session with Terry last week, and I have to say aside from being very relaxing, it was a profound spiritual experience.  I have been working on clearing some old, negative energy and I can say without a doubt, that my session with Terry helped to move it all out.  She is truly one of the kindest, most gentle souls I've ever met.  Give her a try, you won't be disappointed!"  ~J.
