Optimal Animals, LLC - Hudson, WI - Nationwide
Optimal Animals, LLC: Acupressure & Reiki for the Animals You Love! Acupressure & Reiki are gentle, non-invasive tools that facilitate energetic balance for physical, mental & emotional well-being. They are effective for animals & their people!
I’m Sarah N. Bertsch, MA, NCSAA, RMP & I love to share acupressure & Reiki sessions with dogs, cats, horses & more! I also offer Reiki sessions for humans (one of the best things you can do for your beloved animal is to make sure you yourself are well-grounded with harmonious Chi in your body, mind & spirit! I also love to teach workshops!
ACUPRESSURE is an ancient Chinese practice in which light pressure is applied at specific acupoints for the purpose of influencing the body’s flow of Chi (energy). It is very similar to acupuncture, but no needles!
REIKI is a Japanese method of connecting an individual to the higher Cosmic Energy for the purpose of enhancing body, mind & spirit. Reiki includes light, stationary touch or can be done entirely off-body & even long-distance.
BENEFITS from acupressure & Reiki may include: stress relief, reduced anxiety, decreased pain, mood elevation, mental clarity, emotional calming, improved flexibility, hastened recovery, reduced inflammation, increased circulation, improved digestion, strengthened immunity, healthier ageing & comfort at end-of-life.
Many of my canine clients use Optimal Animals to help with mobility, pain, anxiety, cardiac problems, allergies & cancer. Common issues for my feline clients are kidney/urinary conditions, behavior problems & general concerns of ageing. With my equine clients, I often engage with digestion issues, muscle-joint-hoof pain, allergies & herd dynamics. Virtually any physical or emotional imbalance may be addressed with Acupessure & Reiki.
Sarah is a graduate of Tallgrass Animal Acupressure Institute, Nationally Certified in Small Animal Acupressure, graduate of Advanced Equine Acupressure from Hands-on Horse Care of Santa Rosa, certified in Pet CPR and a Reiki Master Practitioner.
