Reiki

What is Reiki? Reiki (pronounced ray-key) literally means Universal Life Force-Energy. Reiki is a hands-on relaxation technique that can promote healing on physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual levels. As Energy travels through the body, it breaks up blockages and creates balance, which enables the receiver to facilitate their own healing and maintain optimal health. Reiki originated in Japan and is commonly offered in many spas and hospitals.

What Reiki can do: Reiki provides deep relaxation and can stimulate healing, shorten healing time, reduce pain and stress, create mental balance, and improve quality of life. Reiki can never cause harm. It can be used safely in conjunction with any type of therapy or treatment; it complements but does not replace veterinary or other medical care.

How Reiki can help you and your animals: In addition to simple pure enjoyment and wonderful relaxation, I have seen Reiki work in animals to lessen anxiety, increase appetite, increase trust, decrease shyness, speed up the healing process of wounds, assist in quality of life issues and the transition period during the last stages of life, and in numerous other ways. In people, I have seen an increase in healing speed, decrease in pain, release of past emotional issues, improvement in confidence and ability, safety and protection, and more.  Click here for specific examples and more information.

Reiki Sessions

How to schedule a Reiki session. If you would like your animals to get Reiki in conjunction with a petsitting visit, simply let me know when you fill out your normal petsitting reservation form. If you want a session for yourself or your animals but do not need my petsitting services, click here after reading the information below.

What happens during a session. Animals will lay or sit wherever they want. People will lay fully clothed on my massage table (or will sit on a kitchen chair if that is more comfortable for them). I will place my hands on or slightly above the body in specific locations. Sensations of soothing warmth, coolness, or tingling may be felt as the receiver draws in the Reiki energy. Reiki will go wherever it is most needed. Most people feel very relaxed and may fall into a light sleep. For relaxation purposes and to facilitate healing, I may incorporate aromatherapy, music, color therapy, and/or other modalities.

Location
. Animals are visited in their own home as that is where they are most comfortable. People can choose to have their session wherever they are most comfortable and where they can relax without interruption: their home or mine.

Hours. Sessions are offered in my home by appointment only on Fridays at 7 p.m. and on Saturdays and Sundays at 9 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. I am available for sessions in your home on Tuesdays and Wednesdays at 7 p.m. and on Saturdays at 3 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. Reservations must be made at least 7 days in advance.

Rates: People may select 30- or 60-minute sessions for themselves, which includes a few minutes for any questions that may have arisen during your session. It is best to start each animal out at 5 or 10 minutes each, but you may increase or decrease session lengths at any time as desired or needed.
