Melinda Bailey
Melinda founded Sacred Light Sanctuary to create the kind of space she needed herself — unhurried, welcoming, and free of pressure. With a grounded, warm presence, she offers Reiki, reflexology, and vibroacoustic experiences, and loves helping guests find the practice that feels right for them.
Wellness as a returning
We believe wellness is not a destination but a returning — a gentle coming home to yourself. Sacred Light exists to hold space for that return, offering restorative practices in a setting that feels warm, grounded, and real.

Lisa Edwards
"Finally got in to try the light and sound bed and all I can say is "WOW!" I saw colors I have never before seen in my life! I can't even describe how beautiful it was and so many amazing patterns and visualizations, all while my eyes were completely closed and relaxed. The music was intense at times and very calming at times and somehow followed along with the lights. The bed itself also moved or vibrated at times and my 1st thought was that I was on some kind of magic carpet ride! As intense as it sounds, I felt very relaxed afterwards and the feeling has lasted all evening. Can't wait to come back for another session. Highly recommend giving it a try!"
