Reiki means 'mysterious atmosphere,
miraculous sign.' It is formed from the Japanese words “rei” (universal) and“ki” (life energy)
Animal reiki
Reiki works to heal your animal at an energetic level and helps to find the root of any imbalance, disharmony, disconnection and dis-ease in their energy and chakras, which are energy points in the body.
​
The role of the animal healer is to assist animals by tuning into and working to channel reiki to each of the chakras. This includes identifying which chakras are out of balance, and helping to bring these back into balance. As a healer, I work to identify any challenges that the animal may be experiencing on a physical, emotional, mental, behavioural or spiritual level. Animal healing can help with:
​​
-
Providing support and healing for trauma, illness or injury (but is not a substitute for veterinary treatment)
-
Helping you to form a deeper understanding of your animal when their behaviour is puzzling or seems inappropriate to you, as their guardian
​
Reiki is universal energy and flows the same, whether at a distance or in person. Time and distance are no limit which means it doesn't matter if your animal is just down the road or 4,000 miles away.
​
At the time of your animal’s scheduled session, all I ask is that, if possible, you try to be with your animal so that can observe them. I will always try to arrange the session for a time that is convenient for you to do this.
​
Distant animal reiki or remote animal reiki sessions work because energy is not limited by distance and time. Distance pet Reiki is the same as contact Reiki, apart from the fact that it is not in person, you can stay in the comfort of your own home and be with your animal whilst the reiki is being sent.
​
I personally find that distance healing works very well for most of my clients, as many animals in need of help with behavioural issues can feel quite unsettled and apprehensive around new people visiting them in person.

Here are 5 benefits of remote Reiki for animals:
1. It promotes relaxation and stress reduction: Animals, like humans, can experience stress and anxiety due to various factors such as changes in environment, health issues, or trauma. Remote Reiki helps to induce a state of deep relaxation, allowing the animal’s natural healing mechanisms to activate and alleviate stress-related symptoms, regardless of their location.
2. It balances energy flow: Just as blockages in human chakras can lead to physical or emotional imbalances, animals can also experience disruptions in their energy flow. remote Reiki works to clear these blockages and restore harmony to the animal’s energy system, promoting overall balance and well-being, no matter where they are.
3. It supports physical healing: Whether recovering from illness, injury, or surgery, animals can benefit from the healing properties of remote Reiki. By enhancing circulation, reducing inflammation, and supporting the body’s natural healing processes, remote Reiki can speed up recovery time and improve the animal’s overall health outcomes, even from a distance.
4. It strengthens the human-animal bond: Providing remote Reiki to an animal fosters a deeper connection between the caregiver and the animal, regardless of physical proximity. It’s a profound way to communicate love, compassion, and healing energy, strengthening the bond and trust between them, even when miles apart.
5. It complements veterinary care: remote Reiki is not a replacement for traditional veterinary care but can complement it effectively, regardless of distance. Many veterinarians now recognize the value of integrative therapies like remote Reiki as part of a holistic approach to animal wellness, extending beyond physical boundaries.
Incorporating remote Reiki into the lives of our animal companions can offer a multitude of benefits, from promoting relaxation and stress reduction to supporting physical healing and strengthening the human-animal bond, regardless of distance. By understanding and respecting the energy systems of animals, we can provide them with the holistic care they deserve, enhancing their quality of life and well-being, no matter where they are in the world.
