Animal Reiki
Animal Reiki is a gentle, non-invasive, soothing therapy for animals, and can help with many different issues. It promotes deep relaxation allowing the body to rebalance and self-heal on many levels. Healing can help with physical ailments as well as emotional problems and trauma. Reiki is suitable for all animals and it works safely alongside Veterinary medicine.
Reiki can help aid healing in the following areas:
Physical. such as injuries, stiffness, stomach trouble, loss of appetite, post operative recovery.
Emotional. anxiety, mistreatment/bad experiences, nervous or timid dogs, also helps with bereavement and loss.
Behavioural. separation anxiety and behavioural issues.
Owner and Pet relationship
What happens during a treatment?
All animals are treated in the comfort of their own enviroment or via distant healing and each appointment includes a chat before and after the treatment to discuss progress and findings. To give Reiki to an animal is a simple process. They will guide me as to whether they want to receive the healing sitting on my lap, laying next to me or moving freely around the room as they wish during the treatment. Then I will either lay my hands on the animals body or from a short distance away, depending on how they wish to receive the energy.
The great thing about using Reiki on animals is that you can “see” it working. Your pet will most likely relax and some will lie down and go into a deep sleep next to me. If they are having a release of some kind they maybe fidgety and unsettled for a while. All animals can react in different ways and some may not show any obvious signs of relaxation during their treatment. They will wait until they are alone and then go to sleep to enjoy the healing energies. No matter how your pet responds, Reiki is giving them what they need.
Treatments lengths vary depending on the individual dog. Some will only need a short session of healing energy while others enjoy longer treatments of around 35 minutes. Your dog will decide how much they have and it what circumstances.
Following a treatment it is best to leave them for a couple of hours to fully absorb the energies and allow the healing to continue. They will feel calm and relaxed or they could be energised, every dog responds in their own way. They may drink more water than usual and pass more wind/faeces. This is normal as Reiki helps the body to re balance and release what is not needed.

Veterinary permission is no longer required before treating your animal it is now the responsibility of the owner to ensure that the therapist is fully qualified and insured. I recommend that you contact your vet if you have any health concerns about your dog.
Reiki is not intended to replace or act as an alternative to conventional treatments given by a vet. The Veterinary Surgery Act of 1966 (amended 1996) prohibits anyone other than a Veterinary Surgeon to diagnose ailments and giving of advice on such diagnosis. The Protection of Animals Act 1911 requires that if an animal clearly needs treatment from a Veterinary Surgeon then the owner must obtain this.
The healing of animals by contact healing, by the laying on of hands or distant healing is legal. To give emergency first aid to animals for the purpose of saving life or relieving pain is permissible under the Veterinary Surgeons Act 1996.
