It's nice to meet you! I'm Eden, the creator of zen haus. I aim to help others reconnect with their inner balance and natural healing abilities.
Reflexology, Reiki, and yoga are just a few of my favorite complementary holistic therapies which have consistently helped me navigate personal life challenges and my healing journey since my early teenage years.
For more than 15 years, these powerful practices have not only supported my healing, but transformed my approach to wellbeing. So in summer of 2024, I took action on my interest in remedies to heal the body naturally. I am a certified Reiki Practitioner, Foot Reflexologist, and have completed more than 200 hours of Yoga Teacher Training.
Through reflexology, I discovered how the body can speak through the feet. Reiki opened the door to deep energetic healing. And yoga continues to ground me in both strength and stillness.
Through this holistic approach, each client is provided customized care - whether it be for acute distress, chronic issues, or simply maintenance of overall wellbeing.
When I am not practicing these healing modalities or working at my full-time job as a level II clinical chairside dental assistant, you can find me spending time with my loved ones, painting a new landscape, crafting with clay, or hiking long trails, and enjoying nature to its fullest.
Whether we've worked together before or are just now crossing paths, know that I hold a safe and grounded space for you and look forward to guiding and supporting you on your healing journey.
Let's reduce your stress, release the tension, improve circulation, and bring your body back to its natural rhythm.
With gratitude,
Eden
originating more than 5000 years ago. It is a safe, non-invasive, natural healing therapy based on the principle that there are reflexes in the feet, hands, and ears which correspond to every organ, gland and system within the body. Think of your feet as a road map of your body. Through the application of finger and thumb pressure on the reflexes, similar to massage, it relieves tension, improves circulation and stimulates energy flow to the body so it can return to its natural rhythm.
Anyone can have reflexology! Some of the benefits include:
ancient Japanese energy transfer therapy. This chakra-focused healing technique is used to promote peace and contentment, and helps to restore the balance of your energy and overall health. Reiki treats the body as a whole; this includes the mind, body, and spirit. This treatment works to encourage the body to return to homeostasis, its natural rhythm, allowing the healing process to occur.

Reflexology
During a reflexology session, your reflexologist will warmly welcome you and begin with reviewing your medical history and discussing any physical, or emotional concerns you may have. You will be asked to remove your shoes and socks and relax on a comfortable treatment table with dim lighting and soft music in the background. The feet are then gently inspected and cleansed, and the left foot is kept cozy in a towel while the right foot is worked first. A gentle warm-up of the foot is then performed before using finger and thumb pressure to specific points on your feet. You may experience a tingling or relaxing sensation, sometimes sensitivity, but the treatment should not be painful. The 60 minute session is complete with a gentle massage and a quiet moment to soak in the benefits. What you may notice following your session is deep relaxation, maybe a burst of energy, mental clarity, improved circulation and feeling more balanced.
Reiki
During a Reiki session, your practitioner will warmly welcome you and begin with reviewing your medical history and discussing any physical, emotional or spiritual concerns you may have. You will be asked to relax fully-clothed on a comfortable treatment table with dim lighting and soft music in the background. Your practitioner will channel the universal life-force energy ("Rei"=universal, "Ki"=life force) to help rebalance your energy field. The 30 minute or 60 minute session begins with the practitioner placing their hands lightly on or hovering just above your body in a series of positions, starting at the crown of the head and moving down toward the feet. Healing stones may be used to enhance the energy. Keeping an open heart and an open mind, the Reiki will flow wherever the body needs it. You may experience feelings of warmth, tingling, or a sense of calm where their hands are. You may also feel emotional during the session, you may have visuals arise - acknowledge them and let them pass. You will hear a singing bowl and Tingsha cymbals to note completion of your session. What you may notice following your session is deep relaxation, emotional release, clarity, or fatigue. Some may feel sleepy, others may feel more energetic.
Please update your practitioner with any changes to your health at each visit as this will ensure optimal care.
Your sessions should never be painful or uncomfortable, in which case please let your practitioner know if for any reason you need to stop or move on. This is a safe space for you.
Drink water before your session as hydration supports detoxification and circulation.
Have a light meal or snack about an hour an hour before your appointment time, avoiding heavy or greasy foods.
Wear comfortable clothing since reflexology is done on the feet, wear loose pants that can be rolled up or shorts to allow easer access.
Try to come to your appointment a few minutes early to help the body stay calm and relaxed - avoid rushing, stress can carry into the session.
Use the restroom; being physically comfortable helps you stay relaxed throughout your session.
Let go of all distractions. Turn off your phone, detach yourself from your to-do list, etc. Allow yourself to be fully present.
Time is allotted after each reflexology and reiki session for open discussion to share observations. The benefits are often cumulative and subtle rather than immediate or dramatic.
You will go home with customized care, though most importantly - avoiding heavy meals and alcohol before and after your session, and HYDRATE! You will want to flush out any toxins that may have been stirred up.
Sleepiness as the body may need some rest as it shifts into “repair mode”.
Mild headaches from the toxins being released. Stay hydrated!
Increased urination or thirst which is a sign your body is flushing out waste.
Heightened emotions is normal to feel afterward.
Subsequent sessions are advised for the ability to spend more time on certain areas based on your energy and/or previous sessions. You may feel a deeper sense of clarity, stronger physical sensations or emotional releases, have the ability to process past trauma or unconscious blockages better; overall feeling greater connection to your body.
The frequency of sessions varies from person to person. Generally for acute issues, it's best to come a few times per week for a few weeks, then gradually decrease amount of visits until symptoms lighten up. Once that is achieved, it's advised to maintain your health with monthly sessions or as needed.
Feel the difference consecutive sessions can make in your life with continued care. Discounted package options are available upon request. See "Services Offered" page for pricing.
For a mobile session setup, you don't need a large area, but you do need a clean, quiet, and comfortable space.
Dimensions of suitable space is approximately 6ft x 3ft. This allows the practitioner to bring in the treatment table, practitioner stool, side table, and other essential items for the session. Additionally, leaving room for your practitioner to move around comfortably.
If you wish to forego the treatment table, another option is your own recliner couch or chair that you would feel comfortable in for the entirety of the session.
