Oregon has a 4.75-9.9% income tax. Progressive income tax up to 9.9%. No sales tax (major benefit for material-heavy trades). Portland metro has additional taxes. High minimum wage. Transit tax in Portland metro.
When evaluating software costs, factor in your effective tax rate. A $828/year software expense is partially deductible — but Nexa at $279 once is a one-time deduction that eliminates the recurring expense entirely.
Whether you call it invoicing, a program for jobs, or a invoicing system — most energy healers in Bend cobble together Vagaro, Acuity Scheduling, Square, HoneyBook and other monthly services. That's $828/year in monthly software fees. Over 5 years at today's prices, the total damage is $4,140.
Nexa gives you the ability to stop renting software. Your CRM, invoicing, calendar tool, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — wrapped into one program. One tap books a client. One tap generates an invoice. No duplicate data entry. No Zapier. No sync fees. It's a lifetime license — save money from the first day. For energy healers in Bend weighing the switch, the 30-day money-back guarantee covers the migration window — you can run Nexa in parallel with your existing subscriptions, verify the workflow handles your real client load, and only cancel the monthly tools once you are confident the data and processes have settled in.
He clears the room before the first client, sage and a few notes from a bowl, resetting the space from yesterday's energy. His morning client is a first-timer who booked half-skeptical, so he spends real time explaining what Reiki is and is not before she lies down: he'll work hands-on and hands-above the body, she may feel warmth or tingling or nothing at all, and none of it is a medical treatment. He scans her field, rests his hands at each center, lets the heat build at the spots that feel blocked. Midday he does a distance session, a regular across the country who books a set time for remote Reiki, and afterward he sends his notes on what he felt, because she is not in the room to know it happened. His afternoon is a chronic client three sessions into a six-pack, and he has to thumb back through messages to confirm where she is in the package. Between clients he clears the space again. He ends the day doing the only marketing that works for intangible work: gently following up with a client from last week to ask how she felt afterward, hoping she'll send the kind of testimonial that brings the next skeptic through the door.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

We build an energy healer's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for an energy healer — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
