I go by Lena and I am a certified wellness practitioner in the arts of Reiki, personal training, yoni steam facilitator and yoga. I have a passion for guiding individuals on deep transformative journeys. I have learned to harness my hearts compass and my natural loving spirit to infuse every modality I engage in. I strive to be of exceptional service in the realm of holistic healing. As a massage therapist in training, I am learning to implement the techniques of touch and body mechanics to soothe the nervous system and help people find relief and feel good in their physical bodies. As an alchemist of the somatic arts, the goal is to naturally weave together ancient wisdom and science to bring healing to the mind, body and soul. I love to mindfully create sacred spaces where the present moment unfold like a lotus in bloom, nurturing inner-peace and balance. I am not just a practitioner, I consider myself a guardian of the soul, a bridge between realms, and a guide through the labyrinth of self-discovery and healing.
