Altha Alchemy - awaken your inner healer

I’m a Level 2 Reiki Practitioner in the Usui Shiki Ryoho tradition and a member of the UK Reiki Federation, offering both in-person and distance healing in Leeds. I had the privilege of training with a Reiki Master who carries the direct lineage of Dr. Usui, the founder of the Reiki Healing System. It’s an honour to be part of this lineage and to offer you the transformative healing that Reiki brings.
I’m also excited to be a certified Soma Breath ® Instructor, offering you a chance to experience something very special. Let me guide you through deeply rejuvenating, life-changing breathing exercises, paired with specially composed music that activates different parts of the brain during meditation and breathwork. These sessions are a beautiful blend of ancient wisdom and modern science, designed to help you enter euphoric states, release emotional blockages, rebalance your nervous system and experience profound healing. Through the power of your breath, we’ll enhance your physical health, repair cells and tissues, strengthen your immunity, and build emotional resilience.
Together, Reiki and Soma Breath® nurture an even deeper mind-body connection, awakening the healer within you. This is a space for deep transformation, where groundedness meets elevation and stillness meets expansion. Just relax, breathe, and let the music and energy take you into a euphoric state of healing. It’s an incredible experience that will help you rise into higher states of consciousness and activate the alchemist within. I’m so excited to share this journey with you and help you unlock your true healing potential. This is a truly unique offering in Leeds, and I can’t wait to guide you through it!

You can choose Reiki, Soma Breath®, or a unique combination of both – whichever feels right for you.

Your comfort is everything
I am a sensitive and caring practitioner who puts the client’s comfort first. I am aware of the many factors that can contribute to a positive treatment and encourage clients to express their sensory preferences for music, scent and lighting. I always ask if clients would prefer me to place my hands on or just above their body; some are happy to receive hands on healing on their legs but may dislike having their face or feet touched.

Reiki for chronic conditions
I have lived with M.E. since 2000 and also have ADHD. These hidden and often misunderstood conditions give me an acute understanding of living with physical and sensory differences along with those related to neurodiversity. Reiki has given me such comfort and hope in the most trying times that it is my mission to help others who are experiencing similar challenges. My range of repeat clients include people who have mental health needs, are going through periods of intense emotional distress, and those who are struggling with the overwhelm that comes from living with neurodiversity .

Reiki for children
Reiki can be very soothing and beneficial for children and adolescents. Reductions in fear and anxiety and a greater sense of calm, safety and general well-being are often reported. As with adults, Reiki can also develop feelings of confidence and safety and promote better sleep. I have over twenty five years’ experience of working with children as a mainstream and SEND teacher and have enhanced DBS status. I welcome opportunities to give reiki to children and adolescents.
