Reiki is a gentle, noninvasive, energy healing system that helps with physical and emotional healing. It can help reduce stress, relieve pain, and generally make you feel better.

Animals absorb Reiki energy a lot easier than humans. They are much more in tune with the universe and the energies that surround them than humans. This means that a Reiki session with an animal is often shorter than for a person.

To help the animal feel safe and relaxed I prefer to give the Reiki treatment in the comfort of your home. An animal often moves away during a treatment so I remain accessible and they can come back for more when they are ready. Animals that are not comfortable with physical touch can be treated via distance healing, even in the same room.

For sick animals, Reiki may be given for any illness or injury as a safe complement to traditional veterinary care. It can reduce anxiety, pain, depression, and also the side effects of the necessary medicine. Reiki can also improve the effectiveness of other therapies.

For animals in palliative care – Reiki is a powerful yet gentle way to provide comfort, pain relief in the final stage of their lives and helps to ease the transition into the next realm.

Reiki Healing addresses emotional and behavioural needs, physical illnesses and injuries.
