Animal Reiki & Healing
Supporting the Health, Happiness and Wellbeing
of the Animals We Love
Our animals bring so much love, companionship and joy into our lives, and naturally, we want to offer them the very best care.
Animal Reiki is a natural, holistic approach to healing that works with an animal's energy, supporting balance and wellbeing on physical, emotional, mental and spiritual levels.
With over 20 years' experience working with animals, including veterinary nursing and caring for horses, Jean combines her extensive knowledge of animal care with her qualifications as a Reiki practitioner and holistic therapist.
Her love of animals and passion for natural healing are at the heart of everything she does.
How Does Animal Reiki Work?
Reiki is an energy healing practice based on the understanding that all living beings possess a life force energy.
Within this approach, illness and discomfort are understood as potentially involving imbalances in the body's energy system, which may have physical, emotional, mental or spiritual dimensions.
Through the placement of hands on or near the animal, the Reiki practitioner channels healing energy with the intention of restoring balance and supporting the body's natural ability to heal itself.
Rather than focusing solely on physical symptoms, Reiki takes a holistic approach, seeking to support the animal's overall wellbeing and address energetic imbalances that may be contributing to discomfort or distress.
The Healing Benefits of Animal Reiki
Animal Reiki is used as a complementary therapy to support animals in a variety of circumstances.
Within Reiki practice, its potential benefits include:
-
Physical healing and recovery: Supporting the body's natural healing processes, including the intention of encouraging cellular and tissue repair.
-
Pain relief and comfort: Offering additional support for animals experiencing physical discomfort, chronic conditions or age-related difficulties.
-
Emotional and mental wellbeing: Helping animals experiencing stress, anxiety, fear or emotional distress to find greater calm and balance.
-
Energetic balance: Working with the animal's natural energy system to encourage harmony and support overall wellbeing.
-
Support during illness: Providing complementary care alongside veterinary treatment, with the intention of supporting the animal's natural healing abilities.
-
End-of-life comfort: Offering a peaceful, reassuring experience for animals approaching the end of their lives.
Reiki practitioners and animal owners report a range of positive experiences, although these specific physical healing effects have not all been established through scientific research.
What Happens During an Animal Reiki Session?
Every animal is different, and Jean approaches each session with patience, compassion and respect for the animal's individual needs.
During a Reiki session, Jean channels healing energy through her hands, which may be placed lightly on the animal or held close to its body.
Some animals may experience sensations of warmth or become deeply relaxed, whilst others may prefer to move around or take time to become comfortable with the experience.
Jean allows each animal to respond naturally, without forcing physical contact or restricting movement.
Many animals appear to settle into a peaceful, restful state during their sessions, sometimes becoming sleepy or choosing to lie down.
Sessions are offered on a one-to-one basis and may last up to an hour, depending on the animal's needs and response.
A Lifetime of Caring for Animals
Jean's connection with animals extends far beyond her work as a Reiki practitioner.
With 20 years' experience working with animals, including veterinary nursing and working as a groom with horses, she has developed a deep appreciation for their individual personalities, needs and wellbeing.
As a fully qualified and insured holistic therapist and qualified Reiki practitioner, Jean brings together her practical experience of animal care and her passion for energy healing.
Her approach recognises that animals, like people, benefit from care that considers their physical, emotional and overall wellbeing.
