A message from Karen re; Reiki experience
Karen Sievers said; It was wonderful for these practitioners to come to our meeting and offer us Reiki. I also was in the second group and was treated by two practitioners whose names I cannot remember. I am still blaming this on chemo brain.
But one of the ladies was the practitioner who gave us an overview of the reiki and led us in meditation. She has a healing circle in East Northport on Wednesday evenings.Anyhow, it was a terrific experience. I could feel the warmth from their hands pouring into my legs. I have neuropathy in my left ankle and top of foot and after the treatment the neuropathy was better, not completely gone but better.
My left side has some nerve damage and the treatment had my foot moving involuntary, while this has happened before, not to the extent as while I was being treated. It didn't hurt but it was weird. Not sure if this was because of treatment. I also had a warm and calming feeling come over me when they touched my head and face. It was so soothing. After the treatment, the practitioners said I needed the treatment. I was soaking up their energy.
Thanks Angel!

LI OCEANS INC
a beacon of hope for those affected by Ovarian Cancer & Gynecologic Cancers
About Us:
LI OCEANS is an acronym for Long Island Ovarian Cancer Education Advocacy Network & Support. Our group is comprised of women living with Ovarian & Gynecological cancers, from the newly diagnosed to the long-term survivor.
In 2004, several women personally affected by Ovarian Cancer met, exchanged ideas, shared stories, identified the need for change, merged ultimate values and priorities and then made a decision that would transform lives.
They didn't know where they would find the time, the energy, nor the money to create an organization for women with Ovarian & Gynecologic Cancers, but they forged ahead nevertheless, with hope as their guiding light. They knew that without their understanding, passion and strength that other women with ovarian cancer would continue to suffer in isolation.
LI OCEANS recognized the urgent need for awareness; advocacy and action-they aspired to be the voice for Ovarian Cancer and save the precious lives of our mothers, sisters, daughters, grandmothers, friends & neighbors!
Our goal is to create awareness among women the medical community and the greater population regarding early warning signs and symptoms that may be indicative of ovarian cancer, resulting in earlier detection.
Our purpose is to provide support, resources, networking, and education for those women diagnosed with ovarian and gynecologic cancers. We support the advancement of research for early detection and cure of ovarian cancer.
Our mission is to educate, advocates with the ultimate hope to eradicate this deadly disease!
LI OCEANS is a 501(c)(3) non-profit approved by the IRS. Your tax-deductible contributions allow us to continue our battle against ovarian cancer, to raise awareness in the community and to provide education and support to ovarian cancer victims and their families through a network of survivors.
