Reiki Healing for Animals 

Welcome to my Reiki Chakra Healing for Animals practice! With years of experience, I have witnessed incredible transformations in pets through the power of the chakra system. I believe that balancing these energy centers is essential for your beloved pet's health and well-being, and it's always my first focus when treating an animal. 

 

 

 

 

What is Reiki Healing

Animal Reiki is the offering of Reiki to animals but it involves more than just applying human Reiki knowledge and skills. Animals do not communicate with us in the same way as we converse with one another. They are often not truly understood and similarly they do not always understand our communications or actions.

 

However, animals are inherently more ‘aware of’ and ‘understanding of’ energy. They have used it historically to determine if strangers are friend or foe and many naturally appear to be very accepting of this calm energy.

As with humans, Reiki may benefit animals with physical, mental or emotional issues and consequently this holistic complementary therapy may also be of help for animals with behavioural problems that have an emotional basis or influence.

Practical reasons for offering Reiki to animals:

  • It is non-invasive requiring nothing but a Reiki practitioner and her/ his hands

  • It may be given anywhere at any time – hands-on, hands-off or distantly in a vets

  • practice, hospital, clinic, its ‘home’ environment or elsewhere

  • It requires no equipment or technology

  • There is no need to move or disrupt an animal. It can be given to them wherever they are

  • It complements and supports conventional veterinary care

  • The animal is in control at all times. Reiki cannot be forced upon an animal.

  • They chose to take it for as long as they like and how they like

  • It is relaxing, so may help pre-treatment /post-op

  • Reiki always works for an animal’s highest good

 

Depending on the situation and the animal, one session may be all that is required or a number of sessions may be necessary. Every animal is a unique individual and so natural variances will apply.

Reiki for animals is fundamentally the same practice as Reiki for humans but there are key differences in the approach. Unlike with humans, two-way communication is typically absent when working with animals, so it's essential to let the animal guide the session. Additionally, Animal Reiki often addresses behavioral issues, utilizing specialized skills from training to enhance the experience., providing Reiki in an animal's familiar environment can help them relax more quickly, creating a comfortable space for them

Reiki can be a powerful tool not only for animals but also for their owners or caregivers. It's essential to recognize that animals are highly to the emotional states of those around them. When an owner is stressed or anxious, their pets can easily pick up on this energy, which may trigger or worsen behavioral and emotional challenges. offering Reiki sessions for both the owner and the animal, we can create a harmonious environment that supports overall well-being and healing. Example: Someone may be nervous riding a particular horse or walking a dog in certain situations and this can make the animal nervous, causing them to react in an undesirable way. Reiki may help the animal to overcome its fear related reaction but if next time they are ridden or walked by this same person and they detect the anxiety; their symptoms can come flooding back again. When the person is their owner or carer they will be regularly subjected to the anxiety and here it is especially important to help the owner too.

What are the benefits

Accepted benefits for animals receiving Reiki

  • Greater comfort

  • Improved feeling of wellbeing

  • Promotion of relaxation which sometimes can lead to sleep

  • Greater sense of self

  • Peaceful transition for animals’ ready to pass over

In addition to the points above, Reiki practitioners and those who own and care for animals have repeatedly observed benefits beyond these. When the body (human or animal) is relaxed, it is in a state when it is best able to naturally heal itself and recover from illness, injury or other stress to the body.

Reiki encourages and supports positive personal choices and may help animals to better cope with life’s challenges. This energy is gentle and can be given to any animal or bird of any age should they wish to receive it. They do not need to be physically awake to decide. If their body does not wish to receive Reiki, the energy will not flow and when they have had enough again it will stop flowing as they no longer draw it from the practitioner.

 

What happens during a session

Where practical and possible, before a session commences, notes will be gathered from the owner or carer. This will include details about the animal, the reason Reiki is sought, the animal’s character, temperament, a brief case history and any diagnoses, whether or not Reiki has been offered before, and if so, further relevant details.

The above information will determine how Reiki is best offered for the best results and to ensure safety for all.

In some instances, for example for wild or rescue animals, this background information will not be known.

The Animal Reiki treatment is non-diagnostic, non-interventionist, non-manipulative and no pressure is applied.

A session is typically carried out in the animal’s familiar surroundings where he/ she is most relaxed and comfortable. External noises and distractions should be minimised and if the animal is unknown to the practitioner or has not received Reiki before a hands-off approach is often how the treatment commences.

Reiki may be experienced as a flow of energy, mild tingling, warmth, coolness, other sensations, or nothing at all. Some animals may wish to sniff a practitioners hands or step away slightly. Others may come closer offering their sore parts to the practitioner.

Reiki may be offered to animals in open or enclosed spaces e.g. in a stable, bird cage, field etc. as well as on their bed or where they like to relax.

The length of the session is 30mins to an hour and may include other therapies such as flower essences or aromatherapy or even some communication just depends on the consultation and what is best for the animals.

30mins - £25

1 hour - £50
