About

Hi, I’m Ryan Wimperis, founder of Amethyst Healing & Wellness.

My journey into holistic healing began with a profound personal transformation. After experiencing the deep shifts from Reiki and sound healing, I realized the power of these modalities in ways traditional medicine hadn’t provided. These experiences activated my “empowerment muscle,” leading to greater self-growth and healing than ever before.

With over 20 years in healthcare and 15 years as a Registered Polysomnographic Technologist (RPSGT), I’ve worked with more than 6,000 patients facing insomnia, obstructive sleep apnea, restless legs, and other sleep challenges — including helping many acclimate to CPAP therapy and troubleshoot ongoing issues.

Today, as a Certified Reiki Master Teacher, Sound Healer, and Licensed Massage Therapist, I blend this strong clinical foundation with compassionate, integrative modalities. My sessions combine multiple tools and approaches to support the whole person — body, mind, and nervous system — so you leave not only deeply relaxed but also empowered with practical strategies for lasting well-being.

What Sets My Practice Apart

What truly sets my work apart is the belief that we are our own healers. Every session — whether focused on sleep coaching, sound healing, energy work, or nervous system support — integrates clinical sleep science with proven holistic techniques. This creates a customized experience designed to promote deep relaxation, restore balance, and foster long-term resilience and vitality.

My approach honors both evidence-based sleep medicine and the body’s natural ability to heal when given the right tools and environment. The Amethyst Far Infrared PEMF Mat further amplifies sessions by supporting cellular renewal and profound relaxation.
