Animal Healing

Animals are naturally more sensitive to the powerful healing energy of Reiki. This treatment is ideal for your pets as it is non-invasive and gentle yet is known to produce powerful healing results.

Reiki energy is known to heal physical ailments, injuries and illness. It also has beneficial properties for your animal's emotional and behavioural problems.

Healthy animals also benefit from Reiki as it helps to maintain their health, emotional and overall well-being. For unhealthy animals Reiki is a wonderful healing art that will compliment any western medicine, and Reiki has been known even to reduce side effects of chemotherapy thus promoting relief of stress and discomfort.

For dying pets, Reiki is powerful yet gentle way to provide comfort and pain relieving properties to relieve unwanted anxiety to ease the transition.

Reiki Treatment for Animals

The treatment usually begins a short distance away from the animal rather than with hands on healing. This helps to build up trust and gives the animal the opportunity to feel the healing energy. The animal decides how much Reiki they want.

Animals are more sensitive to energy than people and quickly understand its healing potential. During a treatment the animal may move closer to the Reiki Healer or may choose to lie away from them. It is their choice and wherever they are they will still receive the benefit from Reiki Healing.

Important Legislation

It is essential that you obtain veterinary treatment for a sick or dying animal. The paragraph below sets out the relevant legislation with regard to treating animals.

The Veterinary Surgery Act of 1966 prohibits anyone, other than a qualified veterinary surgeon from treating animals, including diagnosis of ailments and giving advice on such diagnosis.

However the healing of animals by contact healing, by the laying of hands or distant healing is legal. The Protection of Animals Act 1911 requires that if an animal clearly needs treatment from a veterinary surgeon the owner must obtain this. To give emergency First Aid to animals for the purpose of saving life or relieving pain is permissible under the Veterinary Surgeons Act 1966 Schedule 3 (taken from the UK Reiki Federation Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice - March 2002)
