- If you're recovering from surgery or caring for a parent, you can still get a session without leaving the house.
- There's no hands-on contact, which suits you if being touched by someone you've just met is a hard stop.

- Many clients describe peace, warmth and a sense of well-being with Reiki, and you're already home when it ends.
Reiki Master in Massapequa, NY
Distance Doesn't Mean Anonymous
New York doesn’t license Reiki. The state’s massage therapy board has said you don’t need a massage license to practice it, so the things you can actually weigh are training, experience and what past clients say. That’s worth knowing before you book with a practitioner you’ve never met.
Dawn Ristau is a Licensed Acupuncturist and Certified Reiki Master with over a decade of experience, working out of North Massapequa. Clients leave five-star reviews and describe her as kind, intuitive and clear. When you book distance Reiki with us, you’re booking with a real person in your own county, and our office is here if you ever want to visit in person.

How Distance Reiki Works
What Happens During Your Session
Before your session, we explain what will happen and what you’ll need to do, and you give your consent. Belief isn’t required, only openness. During the session you rest. Some people feel warmth, calm or tingling, and others feel very little. Both are normal.
On the research, we’ll be straight with you. Studies suggest Reiki may help with stress and anxiety, and a few small, early studies have looked at distance sessions, but the evidence overall is mixed. Reiki is complementary. It isn’t a replacement for medical care, and we would never ask you to change your treatment.

FAQs

The honest answer is that the research is promising but not settled. A 2022 meta-analysis in Frontiers in Psychology found Reiki beat placebo for some mental health symptoms, with the strongest evidence in people who already had clinical levels of anxiety, stress or depression. A Cochrane review, on the other hand, found insufficient evidence for anxiety and depression. Studies of distance Reiki specifically are small and early. What we can tell you is that many clients describe feeling calm, warm and settled after Reiki, and a session asks very little of you. If it helps you unwind, that's worth something.
No. You don't need to believe in anything, but you do need to be open to it and agree to receive it. Plenty of people who contact us are skeptical, and that's a perfectly reasonable place to start. We explain what we do and what we don't claim, and you can ask whatever you like beforehand. Reiki is a skill that's learned, not a special gift, so there's nothing you need to get right as the person receiving. You simply rest and see what you notice, if anything.
That's the most common worry, and it's a fair one. Experiences vary a lot. Some people notice warmth, tingling, deep calm or sleepiness, and others feel very little in the moment and notice a shift later in the day, or not at all. Feeling little doesn't mean you did anything wrong. It helps to set aside a quiet stretch of time, silence your phone and get comfortable, then tell us afterward what you noticed. We'll talk it through with you and help you decide whether another session makes sense.
Because nobody has to travel, it doesn't matter where in Nassau County, NY you live. Whether you're in Massapequa Park, Bethpage, Farmingdale, Seaford or Wantagh, or farther north in Garden City, Great Neck or Port Washington, you can book the same session. Nassau County is a dense, busy area with a median age of 41.9, and a lot of people here are juggling work, kids and aging parents. Skipping the Southern State or Sunrise Highway for an appointment can be the difference between going and putting it off again. Reach out and we'll confirm details for your town.
Reiki is gentle and non-invasive, and it's meant to complement medical care, not replace it. Keep seeing your doctor and keep taking any medication you've been prescribed. We'd never suggest otherwise. It's also worth knowing that New York doesn't license Reiki, so it's smart to ask any practitioner about their training. Dawn's acupuncture license is a state credential, and Reiki itself has no state license, so we point you to her Reiki Master certification and more than a decade of experience. Ask us anything before you book.
We'd rather give you accurate answers than a number on a web page that may not fit your situation. Contact us and we'll tell you the cost and session length, and explain exactly how your session will run and what you'll need on your end. If you have questions about whether distance Reiki makes sense for you, whether that's stress, recovery, caring for someone, or simple curiosity, ask those too. There's no pressure to book, and we're glad to help you decide.
