A grounded approach to healing
Ground State Reiki is a modern, practical approach to the traditional Japanese practice of Reiki. Sessions are designed to create a quiet space to slow down, step away from everyday demands, and reconnect with a sense of calm and balance. When our bodies are in coherence, healing and wellness come naturally.
It’s for anyone who could use an intentional pause—whether you’re overwhelmed, burned out, navigating change, or simply curious about Reiki.
My practice stays rooted in traditional Usui Reiki while keeping the experience approachable and down-to-earth. You don’t need to believe in anything specific, understand “energy,” or be comfortable with wellness culture. You can simply show up, settle in, and experience it for yourself.

Meet your Reiki practitioner
My name is Markia, and I am the creator of Ground State Reiki. I offer a calm, grounded approach to healing—one that honors the roots of traditional Usui Reiki Ryoho while welcoming a thoughtful, contemporary perspective. I am a Reiki Master trained in Traditional Usui Reiki Ryoho and a member of the International Association of Reiki Professionals as well as the Center for Reiki Research. My additional training includes neuroscience coaching, trauma-informed care, and vagal toning and nervous-system functions.
In physics, the ground state is the lowest possible energy state of a system, where it is the most stable and requires no extra energy to maintain. In simpler terms, it’s the condition where something is at it’s most settled, balanced, and undisturbed state. Ground State Reiki was created out of my love of Reiki, and a desire to offer an inclusive and grounded practice that would inspire people who might shy away from energy healing to try something new.
My approach is professional, respectful, and designed to create a space where you can find relaxation, balance, and healing.

Google Review
“Markia is a highly skilled practitioner whose approach to body work deeply reset my nervous system. I’ve had many reiki sessions over the years, and her practice was an incredibly unique experience for me. During our first session, I immediately felt the physiological calming effects of her technique. After working together, I noticed my nervous system felt significantly more regulated, which has impacted all areas of my life. The impact of regular reiki sessions with Markia continues to improve my quality of life and I would highly recommend her practice for a wide range of needs.”

Why Energy Healing?
Understanding the Mind-Body Connection
In a world that constantly asks us to do more, our bodies often remain in a state of stress long after the demands have passed. Reiki offers a quiet space to slow down, restore balance, and reconnect with the body’s natural ability to relax, recover, and heal.
Stress, emotions, and physical wellbeing are deeply connected, so when we create space for calm, awareness, and deep relaxation, we support the body’s own healing processes.
Reiki healing is based on the concept that our default state is one that is both happy and healthy, and it is only when energy blockages or imbalances disrupt the flow of energy that an environment is created where physical or mental health issues emerge. When we work to free or rebalance this energy flow, we see our bodies and mind begin to flourish.
At Ground State Reiki, energy healing is approached with curiosity, compassion, and realistic expectations — not as a replacement for medical care, but as a complementary practice to support balance, wellbeing, and overall health. I provide both in-person, and distance Reiki sessions conducted over the phone or Zoom.
