Reiki for Animals
Animals are wonderfully open to energy healing; it is important to let them be the guide during the session.
Hand placements are only used if the animal initiates contact. No restraint is needed and the animal is free to move around at will as the session unfolds. It's not unusual for the animal to initially become excited, then settle and relax over the course of the session.
A typical animal session is 45 minutes, usually in their home environment where they are comfortable.
​
I begin by talking with the pet caregiver to gain some background knowledge.
Then I begin reiki meditation, inviting the animal to receive energy healing and allowing the animal to guide me through the session.
​
If there are other animals in the house there is generally no need to remove them from the room unless there is a specific reason or request.
Pet caregivers are welcome to be present during all sessions and often feel the benefit of the energy healing.
​
Distance healing is offered after the first physical (or virtual) session.

I follow the 'Let Animals Lead'® method of Animal Reiki developed by Kathleen Prasad.
