Reiki Attunements in Beaverton, Oregon

Named for the beaver-dammed wetlands that once covered the valley, it grew from a Kalapuya homeland and railroad farm town into a high-tech and sportswear hub within Oregon's 'Silicon Forest.' It is also one of Oregon's most ethnically diverse cities and home to one of the state's largest farmers markets. Settlers referred to the beaver-dam wetlands as 'Beaverdam'; the city's name derives from that large body of water. The Atfalati (Tualatin) band of the Kalapuya people lived in the area for thousands of years and called it Chakeipi, 'place of the beaver.'. Electronics firms Tektronix (1959) and Electro Scientific Industries (1962) moved in, establishing the area as a tech center. The Round at Beaverton Central, a transit-oriented development on the MAX light-rail line. Nike World Headquarters campus, roughly 75 buildings on hundreds of acres with buildings named for athletes like Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods. Tualatin Hills Nature Park, a 222-acre wildlife preserve.
