Older Adults Holistic Wellness Programs
With a passion for holistic wellness and a commitment to enriching the lives of older adults, I bring a unique blend of skills as a Reiki (touch therapy), Sound Healing & Fitness facilitator. Specializing in one-on-one and group sessions tailored to the needs of senior citizens, I strive to create a nurturing environment where individuals can rejuvenate their mind, body, and spirit.
Through the practice of Reiki, Sound Healing, chair Yoga and movement exercises, I empower older adults to enhance their physical strength & vitality. I am a certified yoga instructor for Seniors. My approach is grounded in compassion, respect, and a deep understanding of the unique challenges and joys of aging.
As a certified Dementia practitioner I regularly hold Reiki & Sound Healing sessions at Memory Care units including Coterie Hudson Yards and Inspir Senior Living. I also provide therapeutic sessions at the Teal Room at the Alzheimer Foundation of America supporting both members and their caregivers. Additionally I provide services for patients at the Alzheimer’s Disease & Memory Disorder program at Weill Cornell Medicine and clients with Affirmed Home Care.
My work extends to a wide range of older adults organizations including: Heights & Hills, Presbyterian Senior Services, Riverdale Senior Services, Project Find and Seagate Rehabilitation & Nursing Center.

Chair Yoga exercise is a safe and effective way for older adults to improve strength, flexibility, and balance while minimizing the risk of injury. It enhances circulation, supports joint mobility, and helps manage chronic conditions like arthritis or osteoporosis.

We begin with gentle breathing and a body scan to help the mind and body settle. Then, with our eyes closed, I use the sound waves to wash over everyone, guiding their nervous system into a profound state of rest and calm.
