Althea
Reiki Practitioner.
My journey began in Roraima, Brazil, where I was born to Brazilian and Guyanese parents. My roots play a big role in how I approach wellness—grounded in tradition, ancestral care, and a deep respect for the body’s innate wisdom. Some of my earliest memories include massaging my grandmother’s feet and oiling her hair—simple, loving rituals that showed me how powerful touch can be for the body, mind, and soul.
My passion for holistic health and spirituality was truly ignited during a personal healing journey through endometriosis and PCOS. Learning to manage pain and restore balance to my nervous system changed my life—and it’s something I now help others with, too. Through this process, I’ve learned that when the nervous system is out of balance, everything else is impacted. Healing begins when we come back to stillness.
I’m a Level 2 Reiki practitioner and a reflexology student (certification coming soon!), and I’ve been receiving and working with energy since 2020. These practices have supported me with stress relief, clarity, and grounding, and I love sharing them with others.
My approach weaves together energy healing, intuitive touch, plant medicine, and ancient practices that many of us have forgotten or lost touch with. Whether it’s through Reiki, crystal therapy, or nervous system support, my intention is always the same: to help you reconnect to your body, find peace in the present moment, and return to your natural state of balance and flow.
I truly believe that your body holds deep wisdom—and I’m simply here to support you in tuning into it. You’re not here by accident. You are here for a reason, and it’s an honour to walk alongside you on your healing journey.
