<p>Valerie provides short sessions of chair or foot massage (15 minutes) for just $10. This is useful for people who work at a computer all day or who work in the service industries.</p>
<p>&#8220;I am a graduate of Carlow (College) University and the Pittsburgh School of Massage Therapy. After a long career as a psychiatric nurse, I decided to follow a path that allowed me to continue to work with people at a slower pace. My dream is to return Therapeutic Massage to the hospital setting in a meaningful way. Currently, I work as an independent contractor at Forbes Hospice, providing Therapeutic Massage to patients, their families, staff, and volunteers, and at Shepherd Wellness Community, a setting that provides services for people who are HIV+. I can also be found at the Pittsburgh School of Massage Therapy, where I am an instructor.&#8221;</p>

<p>REIKI (pronounced ray-key) is a holistic, natural, hands-on energy healing system that works to restore and balance a person’s natural life force energy at all levels: body, emotions, mind, and spirit.  Developed in Japan during the last century, it is now taught and practiced world-wide.</p>
<p>REIKI: relieves pain; accelerates healing; reduces stress; produces deep relaxation; increases vitality; improves mental health; supports addiction withdrawal; enhances other treatments &amp; therapies</p>
<p>KEY STONE REIKI (KSR) is an alliance of Reiki practitioners in the Usui System of Reiki Healing. We have offered Reiki healing and training services in the greater Pittsburgh area and beyond since 1994. Office locations include the Regent Square, Point Breeze, and Bloomfield neighborhoods in Pittsburgh, and Trafford.  Hospital, facility, and home visits can be arranged.</p>
<p>Please contact individual practitioners for rates. Sliding scale rates are available, as is a discount if you mention Be Well! Pittsburgh. Visit our web site for more information about Reiki, KSR, and individual practitioners.</p>
