Maria Battaglin

Reiki Master


Reiki, pronounced "ray-key", is a Japanese healing system created by Mikao Ursi in approximately 1920. It is a form of therapy that aims to increase energy levels and promote relaxation and wellbeing. The word "Reiki" is derived from the Japanese kanji alphabet. 'Rei' means 'Universal life force' and 'ki' translates to 'energy' - Reiki is Universal life force energy.
 My name is Maria and I have been practicing healing for more than ten years. I look forward to            working with the team at the Carrum Downs Naturopathic & Wellbeing Centre.
