Reiki is often sought after
to promote wellness for pets as well. The popularity of Reiki among pet
owners is growing rapidly. Animals are extremely sensitive to energy and enjoy the experience.
Treating an animal may require several visits, depending on the situation.
When a Reiki treatment is being given for the first time it may require that the practitioner sit across the room from the
animal and send Reiki; this is especially true for aggressive animals. It is not necessary to touch the animal, as with
a person, for the Reiki treatment to be effective. A trained practitioner will always respect
the animal when it comes to deciding how the session will be done and how long it will last. Animals usually will
have no problem showing exactly where they want the treatment. One of the best rewards is having them thank the practitioner
when the session is complete. Sometimes it's a lick, a deep sigh, or just the look of appreciation in their eyes.
A special bond is almost always made.
Terminally Ill Pets
When an animal
is terminally ill Reiki will not stop the transition process, however, Reiki will provide the animal and his people the support
that is needed, easing pain and allowing the animal peace and acceptance. Reiki is an invaluable gift that can
enable the animal to receive the healing that is needed on both an emotional and spiritual level. It is such a
comfort for a terminal animal.
Senior Animals
When animals age they
often lose their sight or their hearing and become fragile. Mobility becomes a problem. They are usually more sensitive
to energy and may no longer enjoy direct contact because it has become too intense for a hands-on-healing.
A Reiki treatment can help your animal feel more comfortable with less distress.
