Although Reiki is commonly used on humans, it can also be effectively used when working with animals. I work with cats, dogs, small pets, and farm animals.

​

• Reiki can help strengthen the connection between an animal and owner.

• Reiki can help to maintain health on physical, emotional, and energetic levels.

• Reiki can help increase an animal's feelings of relaxation and reduce tension in anxious animals. 

Because Reiki is simple and easy to administer, it is a wonderful alternative therapy for animals. Reiki is non-invasive and will help healing occur where it is needed most.

 

The Reiki practitioner does not need to know the symptoms that the animal is experiencing in order for an effective session to be performed. 

​

Reiki can be performed successfully from a distance making this a safe therapy for the animal and practitioner. 

​

Because Reiki helps increase the body's awareness of imbalances and the body then does the healing, Reiki can never do any harm.

​

The animal is in control of the session. They can be in the location they choose and do not need to be confined or restrained.

​

Over multiple sessions, I find animals refine their perception of the specififc healing frequency and begin to seek out a session when they see the practitioner. 

Reiki is simple AND profound. 

​

I follow The Animal Reiki Practitioner Code of Ethics, developed by Kathleen Prasad, Founder of Animal Reiki Source and President of the Shelter Animal Reiki Association.

GUIDING PRINCIPLES For Animal Reiki

• I believe the animals are equal partners in the healing process.

• I honor the animals as being not only my clients, but also my teachers in the journey of healing.

• I understand that all animals have physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects, to which Animal Reiki can bring profound healing responses.

• I believe that bringing Animal Reiki to the human/animal relationship is transformational to the human view of the animal kingdom.

• I dedicate myself to the virtues of humility, integrity, compassion and gratitude in my Animal Reiki practice.
