Esoteric Energy, located at 833 Nevada Way in Blair Plaza, is a place of healing, to be sure. John Venturino, offers reiki healing which is a non-invasive form of energy-based healing. He uses a number of ancient and more modern tools to accomplish his work including a Tibetan singing bowl, tuning forks, and crystals to help balance and relax his clients.
According to the world-renowned Cleveland Clinic reiki was developed by “Mikao Usui in the early 1900s, deriving the term from the Japanese words rei, meaning “universal,” and ki, which refers to the vital life force energy that flows through all living things. Now, reiki is used all over the world, including in hospitals and hospices, to complement other forms of health treatments.”
John started studying reiki during his wife’s pregnancy and discovered he had a particular gift for centering people in their bodies and minds and helping them heal from past hurts or traumas. He also helps to maintain positive energy by rebalancing energies according to the client’s intentions. Intentions are important goals set by the client to achieve an overall wellness.
John believes in the power of the mind to deal with different issues like self-esteem, depression, anxiety, and the like. While he carefully cautions he’s not offering “cures”, he is adamant that the power of the mind can overcome many daily stressors and help clients lead healthier, more fulfilling lives. He’s spent the past few years assisting friends and family with energy healing and they helped encourage him to open his own office, upon completion of his extensive training.
He offers mini sessions, chakra assessments, and tuning fork sessions that last 20-30 minutes. Full sessions can run up to 60 minutes and include breathwork, Tibetan singing bowl, and tuning forks to assess the client’s needs and make a plan for going forward.
John is available by appointment only by calling or texting (702) 301-7843.
