Receive
Come to be cleansed,
blessed, restored.
A powerful and effective healing modality.
What this is
Shiva Murti is a healing practice created by Ratu Nabe, the Balinese priest at the source of this lineage — built to work, not to soothe.
It moves the energies that run through and around the body: to heal what will not heal on its own, to protect, to restore what has fallen out of balance. Because the work happens at the level of energy itself, the effects are not gradual. Change can come fast — felt during the session, and continuing to move through the body for 24 to 48 hours after it ends.
It draws on classical tantra, sacred Vedic practice, kundalini, and Balinese animism — an unbroken lineage carried into practice, not a technique assembled for effect.
In about five minutes, working with Johnny in person, he helped me find and channel it — something real effort on my own hadn't gotten me to.

Why receive
Disempowering energy accumulates — within us, and on us. How it settles is not ours to choose. It can gather as heaviness in the body, a nervous system that will not rest, emotion with nowhere to go, a sense of being out of balance with yourself.
A session meets what has gathered there and clears it. What returns is often felt as ease — circulation, range of movement, lightness, the quiet after something has been set down.
Who it is for
Wherever the
body carries strain.
Those moving through or recovering from medical treatment
Athletes, dancers, stunt performers
Full-time mothers and fathers
Those carrying long-held injury, tension, or fatigue
Ways to receive
Two ways to receive the work — in person, where the full ceremony is possible, or remotely, wherever you are.
In person
Offered one to one — the complete practice, including flower ceremony and water blessing where called for.
Remote
A healing session reaching you wherever you are — held via Zoom or, when needed, by photograph.
Healing socials
A tradition carried from Ratu Nabe's own practice: complimentary healings offered to the community by students of the lineage. It is how we give back — to those with less, wherever the lineage travels — and, for many, it is the first doorway into Shiva Murti.
If you are new to the work, or already receiving and want added support, a healing social is a place to begin.
A healing social is also the rite a student hosts to complete the path — week seven of seven.
Space is held quietly — request a place and details for joining will follow.
The practitioner
Johnny Cantiveros.
Johnny Cantiveros is a teacher within the Shiva Murti Bali lineage. He came to this work through Ratu Nabe, the source of the lineage — and has studied under him for 4 years in Bali and through his teacher Jero Jason for 6 years.
What he carries was not learned from books. It was transmitted: through ceremony, through sacred water, through initiation, in the old way, from teacher to student. After having a vision to heal with his hands, this is the path that was presented to him.
He holds sessions in person and few at a time. The work is not hurried, and it is not for everyone — only for those ready to be received.
In their own words
Loved the session with Johnny. I had a kidney that hurt so bad, and I didn't like the idea of having surgery, so someone introduced me to Johnny. After the session, that very afternoon my pain went away. It's been a month now, and I am happy and healthy.
My experience with Johnny was unexpected. I wasn't sure what I was getting into, but I left feeling more open emotionally and physically. After my first session I left walking like I never had before, or could remember — my movement felt free and no longer tight while in motion. I would highly recommend Johnny to anyone. He is one-of-a-kind.
First time doing Johnny's healing session was amazing. I was dealing with coughing; no remedies were working for me, and I heard about Johnny from a friend. He creates such a comfortable space during the session on Zoom, and I was able to trust him to support me heal right away. I felt energy moving out of my body from my throat, nose and head, and was able to breathe freely by the end of the session. Healing kept happening even after the session, and two days later I felt a sense of peace and calmness in my breathing. It was such a powerful session.
My experience with Johnny was truly life-changing. He helped with things even years of clinical therapy could not help with. If you are looking for something that really changes your life for the better, seeing Johnny is truly the best option.
I had an energy healing session with Johnny yesterday. At first I wasn't totally sure what I wanted to focus on, but he asked me how I was feeling in the moment and if I was experiencing any challenges. I felt really safe opening up to him, and I appreciated the way he guided me through breathwork. We were able to release some trapped energy and anxiety, and afterwards I felt such a deep sense of calm and peace. I also love that Johnny practises Balinese energy healing — it's such a beautiful experience. I highly recommend working with him: he is kind, a great listener, and creates a space where you feel safe to be vulnerable.
I can't recommend Johnny highly enough. I originally came to him with a form-related injury that hadn't responded to six months of rehab. Through his energetic healing technique, I experienced a breakthrough — within days, the pain and tension started to ease in a way no other therapy had achieved.
