My name is Elise Lasko, and I am the founder of coReiki. I am a Reiki Master Teacher with over 12 years of experience in a variety of fields. As a woman who has experienced many challenges, I know how the complexities of personal and professional life can stand in the way of making important decisions. By learning to heal myself, I was able to pull myself out of my own mental and emotional breakdown with anxiety. Reiki helped me to simplify my anxiety and find healthy ways to manage it.
I have a BS in International Business and BA in Spanish from the College of Charleston and am certified in non-tradition Reiki levels I,II,III and Master Teacher. I have experience in a variety of fields including non-profit, Spanish translation and interpretation, education, marketing, sales, and training throughout the United States and Latin America. I have integrated all of my skills and combined them with my passion for health and wellness to support women and children, working professionals, business owners, and other healing practitioners in using Reiki as a stress-management tool to enhance theirs lives.
After diving deep into the field of healing, I discovered my desire to deepen my own knowledge. I enrolled as a doctoral student of Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture at Pacific College of Health in Science- San Diego in January of 2021 and am now in my last year of the program treating acupuncture patients as a senior intern at the school clinic, Rady Children's Hospital, and UCSD. I am also specializing in women's health, reproductive medicine, and pediatrics. I am a DONA trained birth doula that supports families during birth. I looked forward to offering acupuncture, herbal medicine, and all of the Traditional Chinese Medicine modalities in conjunction with Reiki starting in 2024.
I remain aligned with my mission when I started coReiki four years ago. I still wish to create a world where people can go to work with ease knowing they have the ability to design a beautiful life for themselves and their families!
