Claire's Story
Inspired by the overgrown plant life in her backyard, Claire McKillop founded Overgrown Healing - a studio space created to bring people closer to nature, peace and themselves, nestled amongst the beautiful vines, trees, and florals in her backyard. With the vision of creating an oasis-styled treatment room, Claire is honoured to welcome you into this unique space, surrounded by natural elements such as stone, wood, crystals, plants, and more. Prepare to feel at ease in this one-of-a-kind healing experience.
Although Claire received her 1st Degree in Reiki at the age of 13, it wasn't until her 30th year around the sun that she started incorporating this into her daily life, and eventually moving onto working with clients. After receiving a life-changing Reiki Healing Treatment in 2023 (received by Nanci Miranda at Danu Reiki Healing), she was pulled back into this field and has been following this path of purpose ever since.
Why Reiki?
"Have you ever been totally blown away by something?...After receiving a variety of reiki treatments, I have found my own healing - emotional, physical, and spiritual - through this healing modality. I have received treatments in which the practitioner has literally pulled a ball of anxiety that manifested in my chest out of my nose (I KNOW RIGHT!?- and yes I felt it the whole time), totally releasing the ruminating feelings of stress and worry I had not been able to let go of for years. I received a treatment where I was introduced to my Spirit Guides, and experienced them first-hand through the beautiful orchestra of colours that came through in that treatment. I received physical healing during another treatment that focused on the chronic pain disorder I experienced with my jaw, to which decreased the pain exponentially (still to this day). I have received beautiful treatments that have balanced my energy- taking away brain fog and confusion, decreased anxiety, and brought self-love and clarity back into my life. Reiki has changed my life, to where I can breathe again, and feel like my best self (as someone with ADHD and OCD, this has been what previously felt like an uphill battle I was sure to lose). I fully entrust this process and am honoured to share this magical experience to heal with those who wish."
Reiki is for anyone and everyone who is wishing to receive it. If you feel anxious, depressed, lost, unclear, foggy, out of touch, or just feel like you want to bring more harmony, peace and "breath" back into your life- I hope you will trust me and give it a try!
Xoxo,
Claire
