Riena Kim is a second-generation acupuncturist and Reiki practitioner. Her path in the healing arts began in 2006 studying Thai yoga massage and holistic yoga with Saul David Raye. She has been blessed to study under the finest teachers in the healing arts, most recently beginning studies in Tibetan medicine with Dr. Nida Chenagtsang at the Sowa Rigpa Institute. Riena is currently training in the Acutonics® system of healing through the Acutonics® Institute of Integral Medicine, using medical tuning forks on the body to support and balance the body's natural frequencies to promote healing. In 2022, she completed a one-year professional training on the applications of therapeutic sound healing through The Center of Light Institute of Sound Healing and Shamanic Studies. In 2021, Riena had the good fortune to apprentice with sound healer extraordinaire Madhu Anziani, studying Tibetan Buddhist healing mantras and the Pachakuti Mesa tradition of Peruvian Shamanic healing. She also received her Reiki Master attunement in 2022 and was attuned to 13th Octave LaHoChi energy healing in 2021.

 

In 2019, Riena completed a comprehensive two-year post-graduate Clinical Integration program in Chinese medicine with Lonny Jarrett. She also studies Wisdom Healing Qi Gong (Zhineng Qi Gong) with Qi Gong Master Mingtong Gu, in the lineage of Qi Gong Grandmaster Dr. Pang Ming (founder of the largest Qi Gong medicine-less hospital in China). Riena also holds Master's Degrees in both East-West Psychology and Asian Comparative Studies from the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco, CA. 

​

These experiences, along with her own personal journey of healing from chronic illness, and devoted spiritual practice have shaped Riena's intuitive, nourishing and deeply therapeutic approach towards healing and the restoration of health. She remains continually inspired and humbled by the depth, scope, and beauty of Chinese Medicine. Riena is dedicated to this work and feels extremely grateful to be of service through the guidance and care that she provides. She truly enjoys and feels blessed to share this healing medicine with everyone that she has the pleasure to work with.
