About Zoila Thaliffdeen
In 2014, while seeking relief for a long standing shoulder pain that would not resolve with conventional therapy, I decided to try Reiki. My cousin, a Reiki Master, sent me five distance sessions all the way from Peru to California–and to my surprise, the pain went away!
Several years later with the intention of helping others find relief like I did I took classes to learn the practice.
What I didn’t know at the time was that Reiki would completely change my life.
Practicing Reiki, I have never felt happier or healthier and I would love for you to experience similar results.
I have now completed all levels of the Usui reiki system including Reiki Master Teacher (RMT), obtained certification in Oncology Reiki, Animal Reiki and Kundalini Reiki. I include essential oils, crystals and sound therapy in my sessions as needed.
I studied Reflexology in Lima, Peru, where I learned the system used at Centro de Reflexoterapia founded by Sister Jeanne Cattin, spc and continue to deepen my knowledge of this amazing therapy currently following the principles I learn from the Kruchik Method of Reflexology and the Ingham Method of Reflexology. I trained with Bobbie Warren and obtained a certification as a practicing Reflexology from the International Institute of Reflexology in 2023.
