The word Reiki is Japanese in origin, and refers to “Rei”
which means Universal, with the connotation of being “all-encompassing”,
and “Ki”, which is the dynamic life force that
animates all living things and resides within us. It’s equivalent is
the Chinese “Chi”, or Indian “Prana”.
Reiki is a powerful healing energy that surrounds us all. It is an ancient
healing art form where the healing energy passes through the Reiki practitioner
and this energy flows freely through the animal's body.
Reiki is peaceful, soothing, relaxing, non-intrusive and loving. It works
very effectively on animals - in most cases much quicker than on humans. This
is because the animals are much more connected with earth energies and life
force energies than the majority of us.
The Reiki always assists the area of greatest need within each animal and
directs the energy to go where it's needed. Therefore, its use is very individual.
In each animal, Reiki will work on the physical, emotional, and mental levels
to bring body, mind and spirit into balance. Reiki does not impose healing
on your pet, rather it helps each animal to help heal itself.
This means on a Physical Level, Reiki works on the Muscular-Skeletal System,
the Circulatory System, the Nervous System, the Immune System and all of the
internal organs. On the Emotional Level, Reiki works to balance and release
stress, anxiety, tension, and forms of depression. Reiki works on the Mental
Level by helping to integrate the right and left hemispheres of the brain
and improve mental clarity and focus of concentration.
For example, if an animal has acute pain, Reiki will focus on the physical
level. On an animal with a chronic condition, Reiki will work on both the
physical and emotional level. For an animal experiencing forms of depression
or anxiety, Reiki will work on the physical, mental and emotional levels as
needed.
