Meet your Reiki Master

Melissa can lead you on the path to inner peace and spiritual healing

My name is Melissa Halliwell. Operating in the Bendigo, Castlemaine, Macedon ranges region of Victoria.  (services outside of this area or via remote platforms-please email to discuss requirements).  I commenced my spiritual journey in 2003. Eventually being drawn to Reiki healing in 2010. Over the past 13 years I have been practicing and fine tuning my skills in this area.

Having raised four amazing children, I know only too well the stress that families are under, and how that can impact health, wellbeing and relationships. 

My background is health, having been a nurse since 1991. Although I have worked in many areas of nursing in that time, my passion lies with people living with disabilities and the aging process and what that does to the human body and mind. More specifically Dementia and the dying process. In addition, I have extensive experience in people entering residential aged care facilities and the process of adapting to this change in life, for both them and their families. In my experience, the feeling of guilt and anxiety that often comes with choosing to move a loved one into care, often takes time and kindness on self to move through this emotional state.

With my spiritual beliefs and my modern medicine experience I am fully able to deliver a well-rounded Reiki healing session.  

I completed my Reiki masters with Jeremy O'Carroll (Om reiki centre)  

My reiki lineage is from the founder of traditional Japanese reiki Mikao Usui
