Reiki. <!--more--><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Animal Reiki Healing<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Reiki is something most people are not familiar with \u2013 or if they are, they don\u2019t think about it for their pets. Animal Reiki healing is a relaxation technique developed in Japan in the early 1900s. It has been used for over a century to help people reduce stress, relieve anxiety and promote healing.<\/p>\n<p>Although it was originally designed to help stressed-out humans, we now know that pets can experience the same benefits.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How does Reiki healing for pets work?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Reiki reduces stress through the use of gentle touch, breathwork and focused thought. Hospitals like the Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, John Hopkins, Duke University and many others offer Reiki sessions to help patients manage stress before, during and after medical treatment.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/hire\/animal-healers-reiki\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Reiki healing for pets<\/span><\/a> uses gentle, intuitive touch combined with intentional breathing and mindfulness to balance body, mind and spirit. You may hear it referred to as \u201cbalancing their energy\u201d. The result is a peaceful pet, free of stress and discomfort.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.petworks.com\/images\/articles\/reiki-cat.png\" alt=\"reiki healing for pets\" width=\"448\" height=\"446\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Reiki practitioners are trained to use these techniques for pets who are:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Recovering from illness or injury<br \/>\n&#8211; In shelters or rescues<br \/>\n&#8211; Experiencing anxiety\/depression\/grief<br \/>\n&#8211; Aging or terminally ill<br \/>\n&#8211; Approaching end-of-life<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Animal Reiki Healing For Pets<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The really good news is that you do not have to be a trained practitioner to share Reiki with your fur-baby! Here a few steps you can do, at home, before, during and after your pet\u2019s next vet visit:<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Check in on your own state of mind. Anticipate the best! Assume your pet will be calm and relaxed. Expect a positive outcome.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Before the visit, spend 5 to 10 minutes with your pet. Sit quietly with your pet and if they welcome it, begin to pet them letting your hands gently rest on the area near their heart, at the base of their neck and the base of their spine. (If your pet is a small animal other than a cat or dog, you may simply sit near them. Touch is actually not necessary to achieve stress reduction.)<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Breathe slowly and rhythmically, keeping your heart rate steady and calm. Their heart rate will fall into the same balanced rhythm.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Set an intention that \u201call is well\u201d. Keep a picture in your mind that your animal-companion is perfect just as they are. Focus on their total well-being.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Out loud or in thought, remind your pet that they are happy, loved, safe and well.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Let go of expectation. If they exhibit stressed behaviors, stay composed and relaxed. It may take a little practice, but they should eventually follow your lead.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 During the visit, stay focused and calm, maintaining the intention that all is well.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 After the visit, make no fuss. Maintain a sense of calm and balance. This tells your pet that visiting the vet is all routine.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Reiki Healing Helps Pets!<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-6834 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/petworks-logo-article-e1734545691243.png\" alt=\"Reiki For Pets\" width=\"704\" height=\"131\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/petworks-logo-article-e1734545691243.png 704w, https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/petworks-logo-article-e1734545691243-300x56.png 300w, https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/petworks-logo-article-e1734545691243-640x119.png 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 704px) 100vw, 704px\" \/><\/p>\n<p data-pm-slice=\"1 3 []\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><em><strong>Are you finding this article useful?<\/strong> <\/em>Would you like 100% free access to more articles like these, and free access to <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a style=\"color: #000080; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/request_quote\">over 5,000 vetted pet care service professionals<\/a><\/span> throughout the United States? <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a style=\"color: #000080; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/join\">Sign up here <\/a><\/span>for a free Petworks account, and we&#8217;ll email you a\u00a0 10% discount code, good towards your first pet care services booking on Petworks!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-7032 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.petworks.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Petworks-Pet-Care-Hedgehog.png\" alt=\"Reiki For Pets\" width=\"108\" height=\"69\" \/>Our furry family members deserve to live a stress-free life and Reiki healing for pets can be a wonderful support to the amazing medical care provided by your veterinarian!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h5>About the Author<\/h5>\n<p><em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.petworks.com\/images\/articles\/animal-reiki-lady.png\" alt=\"The Animal Reiki Lady\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/>Elaine is a Reiki Master (Usui Reiki Ryoho) and Animal Reiki Teacher.
