My goal is to help you make positive changes in life. Much of the stress, anxiety and other challenges we face are due, in part, to the way we think. In energy work, "healing is a changed mind". When we let go of unhealthy anger, worry, behaviors and expectations. The Sacred Ways offers Reiki sessions, Reiki classes and even DIY tips to help you begin to feel better.

Developed 100 years ago in Japan, Reiki seeks to calm your mind and help restore your healthy, energetic state (called your "Rei-ki"). In a session, a practitioner enters a meditative state and places hands gently on your body to help you deeply relax. Much like meditation, this calmed state offers you the potential for renewed physical healing, reduced stress, greater connection to your life's purpose, or other benefits.

The International Association of Reiki Professionals (IARP) lists a variety of studies on the impact of Reiki treatments. Excerpts from these studies are shown below. All studies suggest that further research is needed given the limited data available. Fatigue on the FACT-F decreased within the Reiki condition (P=.05) over the course of all 7 treatments.

I went in somewhat skeptical but understanding of the process, and I’m glad I did. Dave offered a comfortable setting and was very communicative of the process and what to expect and I haven’t felt this calm for as long as I can remember!

Right from the beginning Dave was welcoming and professional. He was very informative and answered questions I didn't even know I had! I felt very safe in his space. I had never done reiki before and but (and I feel this is important to any newbie) I did not go in with an expectation or caution, instead went in with an open mind and the intent to just allow the session to be and do whatever it would for me naturally.
The session was profound. I can not even put into words the positive experience that I had. The thing is, I dont think that even if I could put it into words it would be a guide for

Can’t explain how amazing my sessions have been. I had my first Reiki session last summer after feeling trapped by energy and my body felt filled with tension. It was explained not to go into the session with any specific expectations but an open mind to the experience. It was truly healing emotionally, physically and spiritually. My second session was just as positive. The only way I can explain it was that it felt like what 3 years of therapy would do in a one hour session. It released a lot of emotional blocks. I am looking forward to doing another soon! Would defiantly recommended David as

I recently took Reiki Level One training with Dave and found it to be an incredibly personal, efficient, and grounding experience. I would recommend Dave to anyone interested in learning Reiki technique or anyone seeking treatment themselves! Thanks to Dave for being so generous in spirit and taking such care of his students and clients.

Dave is one of the most compassionate and powerful healers I know. Every time I've connected with Dave for a reiki session in his home office in Edgewater, I feel welcome, at home, safe, and deeply empowered - before, during and after the session. Dave's way of explaining the session and sharing his insights regarding what comes through the session is always so helpful and affirming as well.
If you are seeking a local reiki healer who both teaches and practices traditional Japanese reiki, please don't hesitate to reach out to him. He is so full of information and genuinely wants to help you find

I feel lighter and more focused after each session. Dave is very warm and insightful and cares about your concerns and the challenges are you facing. He takes the time to rebalance your energy and open your mind to the possibilities that await in a space that feels sacred and comfortable. You can just feel the burdens that are weighing you down wash away. Dave also has a great recommended reading list for those who are newer to the world of Reiki like me.
