  • Your body is a living being separate from your mind. Your mind is the one that wants to run the show, the one that is influenced by the environment, your family, traditions, culture and belief systems that limit you. Your body is a living being that holds your innate power, your knowledge, your intuition. When you are conscious of your body, you start to change. The mind is the one that creates limitations in you, the one that beliefs that what other people are saying is reality.

    When you are conscious of your body, you start to change. The mind is the one that creates limitations in you, the one that beliefs that what other people are saying is reality. The way the Body process works is that it will refrain that reality and you will start creating a new reality that suits the being that you want to be.

    The Access Body processes are more than 50 different processes that will work with different energies according to your needs or the practitioner can follow your body’s knowing and use the process that is required.

    “What would it be like if you embodied so much consciousness in everything that you did and were that others chose to become more conscious as a result? You should be the inspiration for others, not the perspiration of trying to prove that you are good”


    – Gary Douglas, Access Consciousness Founder.

  • As many as you wish! For the lucky ones, once a week, but it could be any time your body requires it. You will know.

    Clients usually experience deep changes in their wellbeing. They claim their lives start changing. Access changed my own life.

  • To initiate the healing process, I will start pulling energy so that the energy moves through your body.

    From then on, the whole session will be focused on your head with gently touching on various points. You will be laying face up the whole time. You will only need to be on your side during a Body Process.

    During the Energetic Facelift, I’ll be placing my hands on the front of your shoulders, neck and face.

  • Usually during an Access session, you may feel pure relaxation, some people fall asleep or feel like they were awake but ‘somewhere else’.

    Muscle twitching, the feeling of being connected to a source, feelings of peace, pain release, tingling.

  • It is not recommended.

    Music will interfere with the release of the implants (the electrical charge in your brain). Music is an energy wave that distracts, discounts and dissipates the charge that is currently there. If implants are turned off, they are not gone, they are just paused temporarily and they will turn back on later.

    Talking however, is ok. You might feel the energy flowing and might have questions or would like to share any thoughts in that moment.

About Access Consciousness®

  • Reiki is a Japanese healing technique that involves channeling energy through the practitioner's hands to promote balance and healing in the recipient's body and mind. It is based on the idea that life force energy flows through us, and when this energy is low or blocked, it can lead to physical or emotional imbalances.

  • During a Reiki session, you will typically lie down fully clothed (you only remove your shoes) while the practitioner places their hands lightly on or near your body. The session is usually very relaxing, and you may feel warmth, tingling, or a gentle flow of energy. Sessions generally last 60 minutes.

  • Reiki can promote relaxation, reduce stress and anxiety, improve emotional well-being, and support physical healing. Many people experience a sense of peace, clarity, and enhanced well-being after a session. It can also complement other medical or therapeutic treatments.

  • Reiki is considered a safe and to many the portal to other healing session as Reiki is a very gentle, non-invasive practice with no known side effects. It does not involve any manipulation of the body. Most people find Reiki to be a gentle and comforting experience.

  • No, you do not need to believe in Reiki for it to be effective. Reiki works with the body's natural healing processes and can benefit individuals regardless of their belief system. An open mind and willingness to experience the session can enhance the benefits, but they are not required.

  • The number of sessions needed varies depending on the individual and their specific goals or concerns. Some people experience significant benefits after just one session, while others may require multiple sessions to achieve their desired outcomes. It is best to discuss your needs with your practitioner to create a personalised plan.

About Reiki

  • Sobada is a sacred ancient healing practice that honors the wisdom and power of the womb. It's an ancestral and therapeutic practice that was developed in the Central and South America. Other names are Fertility massage or ‘Sobada de Matriz’ in Spanish.Through gentle massage techniques, we work to release stored emotions, tensions, and energetic blockages, allowing for greater flow, balance, and vitality within the womb space. 

  • After your womb massage session, your pelvic area and sacral region will feel very warm. A shawl or scarf will be needed to wrap around you, and it's important to keep the area as warm as possible for the rest of the day.

  • No, womb massages are only received between menstrual cycles, when you are not bleeding. Please wait one or two days after your last cycle before getting your womb massage.

  • For better results in perceiving changes within your biology and energetic field, it is recommended to schedule three sessions throughout a woman's menstrual cycle—once a week. Like any other practice, a single session can be very nurturing; however, if you have a specific intention, I recommend purchasing a bundle or multiple bundles.

  • I use organic, cold-pressed sesame oil infused with mugwort herb (Artemisa vulgaris). When sesame oil is infused with mugwort, the warming and nourishing qualities of the oil are enhanced by the healing and cleansing properties of the herb. This combination is particularly effective in supporting the womb's physical, emotional, and energetic health. The infusion also allows the properties of mugwort to be more readily absorbed into the skin, further enhancing its benefits.

  • Mugwort has been used for centuries in traditional medicine, particularly in East Asian and European cultures, for its ability to support women's health. It is known to promote menstruation, relieve menstrual cramps, and balance the reproductive system. In womb massage, it is believed to help clear stagnant energy, release emotional blockages, and protect the womb space energetically. This makes it a powerful herb for connecting with the feminine and healing past traumas or imbalances.

  • Yoni eggs come in different sizes (small, medium, and large) and materials (such as jade, rose quartz, or obsidian). Beginners typically start with a medium or large size, as they are easier to feel and control. The choice of material depends on your personal preference and the type of energy or healing you seek.

  • Yes, when used properly, yoni eggs are safe. It’s important to ensure that the egg is made from high-quality, non-porous, and body-safe materials. Hygiene is crucial, so always clean the egg before and after use. Start slowly and listen to your body to avoid discomfort or injury.

  • If you find it difficult to remove the yoni egg, try to relax and take deep breaths. Changing positions, such as squatting, can help. If the egg has a string, gently pull it out. If it doesn’t, you can use your pelvic floor muscles to push it out. Remember, the yoni egg cannot get lost inside your body, so stay calm and patient.

  • ⥰ Avoid the use of obsidian if you are looking to conceive. Obsidian absorbs and alchemises energy in the womb area. Its use during this time in your life is not recommended.

    ⥰ If you are using psychiatric allopathic medication, obsidian is contraindicated.

  • During an energetic healing practice or mentorship, yoni eggs are used overnight, avoiding use during menstruation, and continuing use between periods. A mentorship is recommended from someone that can help you integrate. and hols space for you.
