Reiki Therapy Session

LifeSpark Cancer Resources is a non-profit volunteer service organization focused on the use of energy therapies to provide support and care for individuals with cancer. LifeSpark is dedicated to serving individuals and the oncology medical community through education, training, advocacy and delivery of hands-on sessions.  LifeSpark provides Reiki and Healing Touch as supportive care that improves physical comfort and well-being for individuals with cancer. Through the Energy Partners program, participants are matched with providers for weekly energy therapy sessions. 

Energy therapies are holistic, supporting body, mind, and spirit. They complement traditional medical care. For cancer patients, sessions can help reduce fatigue, sleeplessness, anxiety, and nausea. Participants often report improved mental clarity and a sense of peace and well-being.

Look for LifeSpark Reiki providers at MDONS dinner programs beginning in April, and also at the Fall Conference in October.  Take advantage of a free mini Reiki session before the dinner meetings to help release your stress and clear your mind after a busy day at work.
