In-Person Treatment Sessions
A treatment session will last from 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the individual animal. It is best to schedule it for an area familiar to the animal, such as a room in the house he or she is comfortable in, a paddock or turnout area for a horse, or even the back yard for a dog.
The session will begin with me offering Reiki to your pet. This is a form of asking permission of the animal, and it will start with hands-off as the animal will dictate when and how much Reiki to take. Some animals are more comfortable with a complete hands-off session, while many will come and go from taking hands-on energy. In the rare case of an animal not being ready for or accepting Reiki, the session will be rescheduled.
Reiki is effective for all of the following:
- For healthy animals, Reiki treatments balance the animal's energy, promoting health and well-being.
- For distressed or ill animals, Reiki energy goes directly to the area of the body where it is needed.
- For animals near death, Reiki provides comfort, relief from pain, fear and anxiety, and it eases the transition to death.
- For shelter animals, Reiki lessens the anxiety separation and reduces the fear of a new and unfamiliar environment, while providing comfort and hope for the future.
