Gentle, loving support for your animal companion…
Just like us, animals can feel stress, emotions, and the weight of experiences on their little hearts and bodies. They deserve peace, comfort, and relief, and Reiki offers them a safe, loving way to receive exactly that.
Reiki is a soft, non-invasive energy therapy that supports animals physically, emotionally, and energetically. It helps them feel safe, soothed, and deeply relaxed, allowing their natural healing processes to awaken.
Reiki never forces, pushes, or interferes. It only offers peace, comfort, and loving support for your animal’s highest good.
🌿 How Reiki Helps Animals
Animals instinctively understand energy. They feel love, safety, and calm just as deeply as we do, sometimes even more so.
Reiki can support your pet by:
✨ Soothing anxiety and nervous tension
✨ Encouraging deep relaxation
✨ Helping with emotional healing after change or trauma
✨ Supporting recovery before and after surgery
✨ Comforting older animals and those in palliative care
✨ Reducing pain and promoting natural self-healing
Reiki brings softness and peace to their little world.
They receive only what they choose, and always in the gentlest way.
Distance Healing for Pets
Reiki can be shared beautifully from a distance, making it safe and calming for sensitive or unwell animals. They can relax in their favourite spot at home, completely in control of their experience.
Your pet chooses how much energy they receive, and for how long.
There is no restraint, no pressure, only peace and comfort.
This can be especially supportive for anxious pets, shy rescues, elderly companions, or animals recovering from surgery or illness.
After Surgery & During Recovery
Healing can feel tiring for our beloved animals. Reiki offers a gentle helping hand, encouraging the body and nervous system to rest, soften, and repair.
It can help:
🌼 Ease stress before procedures
🌼 Support calm healing afterwards
🌼 Reduce discomfort
🌼 Bring emotional comfort during recovery
Reiki flows exactly where it’s needed, whether or not symptoms are known.
Reiki is a complementary therapy and supports veterinary care; Reiki will never do any harm, and will always work for your pet’s highest good, but advice should always be sought from your animal’s Vet before a Reiki session is booked.
“They Know When They Need It”
Animals are incredibly intuitive.
If they wish to receive Reiki, they show us, through softening, relaxing, leaning in, or simply choosing to be near.
And if they need space, we honour that too. Their comfort and free will always come first. Many pets really enjoy Reiki sessions. This profound energy can be given to all kinds of pets, of any age…should they wish to receive it…they are always in control, remember.
🌿 What to Expect During a Pet Reiki Session
Reiki for animals is calm, respectful, and always led by your pet’s comfort.
Here’s how a typical session flows:
✨ We begin with a gentle chat about your pet
✨ You share anything you feel is helpful (personality, recent changes, health support)
✨ Your pet chooses where they wish to be near you, resting, exploring, or simply observing
✨ The energy flows softly toward them, and they decide how much to receive
✨ They may come close, lie down, stretch, sigh, fall asleep…or move about freely
✨ I hold a peaceful space, allowing their body and spirit to relax, release and reset
Your pet is always in charge. There is never any restraint, expectation, or pressure, only loving support.
Most animals relax deeply during Reiki, and some may even fall into a peaceful sleep. Afterwards, they may enjoy a drink, a gentle stretch, or a long quiet rest.
Just like us, they feel lighter, calmer, and more settled.
Signs Your Pet May Benefit From Reiki
You may notice your animal friend is seeking a little extra comfort or energetic support if they are:
✨ Feeling anxious or unsettled
✨ Clingy, withdrawn, or more sensitive than usual
✨ Recovering from illness, injury, or surgery
✨ Struggling with changes (new home, new family member, loss, routine changes)
✨ Showing signs of emotional upset or stress
✨ Restless, pacing, trembling, or vocalising more
✨ Elderly, slowing down, or needing gentle comfort
✨ A rescue animal with a tender emotional history
✨ Experiencing physical discomfort or tension
✨ Nearing end-of-life and needing peace, ease, and love
Reiki can bring:
🩷 Deep relaxation
🌿 Emotional easing
🌙 Comfort and reassurance
🐾 Gentle support through transitions
🪽 A soft sense of peace and safety
Animals instinctively respond to loving energy, and Reiki gives them space to feel safe, held, and nurtured.
Aftercare for Your Pet
After a Reiki session, your pet may feel very calm, sleepy, or quietly peaceful, just like we do after deep relaxation.
To support their gentle healing process, you may wish to:
✨ Offer fresh water
✨ Give them quiet space to rest or nap
✨ Allow them to go outside or find a favourite comfy spot
✨ Keep their routine soft and simple for the next few hours
✨ Let them choose how much closeness or solitude they need
Some animals become extra cuddly afterwards, while others prefer a little quiet time, both are normal and beautiful.
In the days following, you may notice:
🌸 Softer energy
🌟 Improved mood or appetite
🐾 Calmer behaviour
🪽 Increased comfort or mobility
💞 A more settled heart
Trust your pet’s natural wisdom, they know exactly how to process and integrate the healing they receive.
