Animals and Reiki Although Reiki traditionally has been used primarily for humans, it has many qualities that make it an ideal complementary therapy for animals. First and foremost, it is gentle, painless, non-invasive and stress free for animals. Reiki heals at all levels of an animal’s being: physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. It goes to those issues most in need of healing. Reiki is always safe and comfortable for both the animal and practitioner. There is virtually no problem or circumstance that cannot be treated effectively with Reiki. Reiki is a simple method that can address even complex problems. Reiki is a vibrational “frequency” that is readily understood and appreciated by an animal. With repeated treatments, animals often come to seek Reiki out on their own when they are in need of relaxation or healing! Reiki can help maintain health on all levels. Reiki can heal physical illness and injury and is a powerful tool for emotional healing following trauma, abuse, neglect, fear and trust issues. For high-strung or nervous animals, Reiki induces deep relaxation and stress reduction. Reiki can accelerate healing after surgery or illness. It complements both conventional and alternative therapies and can enhance their actions and lessen their side effects. Finally, for a dying animal, Reiki provides compassionate support that can make the transition more peaceful while also providing support for all concerned |
