A practice of presence

Every session begins with listening.

Northbound is a space to slow down, settle in, and receive Reiki in a way that respects your needs and your pace.

Whether you come for yourself or your animal companion, each session is held with intention, consent, and gentle attention. You do not need to know exactly what to expect. We can begin with a conversation and let the session unfold from there.

A place to settle

Let the land help you exhale.

When conditions allow, sessions can take place outdoors in the quiet of the Athens countryside. There is room to breathe, listen, and feel held by the natural world.

Outdoor appointments depend on weather and comfort. If the day does not feel right for an outside session, we can reschedule or choose another format together.

The session

A simple space to arrive as you are.

There is no special way you need to prepare. Your comfort and intention are enough.

01

We connect

We begin by talking through what you are hoping for, your preferences, and anything that would help you feel at ease.

02

We settle

We choose a comfortable setting and agree on boundaries. For animals, their caregiver stays present and their cues guide the pace.

03

You receive

Take the time to rest, breathe, or simply be present. Each session closes gently, with room to share anything that came up for you.

Meet your practitioner

A path guided by care.

Hi, I’m Matt. Reiki has become an important part of my spiritual path and the way I connect with people, animals, and the healing presence of nature.

As a Reiki Master Teacher, I bring a grounded and intuitive approach to each session. Northbound is my independent Reiki practice, created to offer a calm, respectful space for people and their animal companions.

With care, Matt

Good to know

A few gentle answers.

Have a question that is not covered here? We can talk through it before scheduling.

Can I have Reiki outdoors?

Yes. Outdoor sessions at the Northbound property are available when weather and conditions feel comfortable. If plans need to change, we can reschedule or discuss another format.

How far do mobile sessions travel?

Mobile visits are available within 30 miles of Athens, Ohio, with a flat $20 travel fee added to the session price. The fee is confirmed before booking. Please have a calm, quiet space with enough room for a massage table and for me to move around it.

How are sessions with animals handled?

Your animal’s comfort leads the session. Their caregiver remains present, and the session can pause or end whenever the animal needs space.

What should I provide for a distance session?

Please provide a phone number so I can call at the agreed session time. For people, a face photo is helpful if you feel comfortable sharing; otherwise, your full first and last name is enough. For pets, please send a clear photo showing their whole body and eyes.

Does Reiki replace medical or veterinary care?

No. Reiki is a complementary spiritual energy practice. It does not diagnose or replace care from a licensed medical or veterinary professional.
