Reiki

Integrated Energy Therapy (IET)

Energy Therapy works on the basis that everything is made of energy and the body is no exception. The only requirement for energy therapy to work is for the animal to be willing to receive the energy. Animals respond intuitively to this energy and sometimes are able to heal their own emotional, behavioral, and physical illnesses and injuries.

Energy therapy is ideal for use with animals because it is gentle and non-invasive. It does not cause discomfort or pain, and yet yields powerful results. 

• For animals who are healthy, it helps to maintain their health, enhances relaxation and provides an emotional sense of peace and contentment.
  
  
• For animals who are ill or injured, it is a wonderful healing method that is a safe complement to Western Medicine and all other complimentary forms of healing.
  
  
• For geriatric animals, it is a powerful yet gentle way to provide comfort, relief from pain, fear, and anxiety, and to ease the end-of-life transition.

The energy therapy sessions are a blend of the following energy therapies:

Reiki Usui-Tibetan & Usui Shiki Ryoho

Integrated Energy Therapy^® for Pets

Animal Energy™ techniques

Color & Crystal Therapy

Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT)

Green Hope Farm flower essences

What Is Reiki and How Does It Work?

Touch has an important factor in the well being of all living creatures, both human and animal. A loving touch not only soothes pain but also helps heal many injuries and illnesses. We use our hands to touch and soothe, while dogs, cats and horses lick and nuzzle their injuries and those of their companions. Infused with the warm energy of Reiki - the Universal Life Force Energy - touch enters a whole new realm of healing and comfort.

Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation that also promotes healing. It is administered by laying the hands on different parts of the body, and this has been practiced by many cultures for thousands of years. Reiki is a very simple yet powerful technique that can be easily learned by anyone. There are many kinds of healing energy, but not all healers use Reiki. Reiki is a special kind of healing energy than can only be channeled by someone who has been attuned to it. Reiki is life energy that is guided by the Higher Power, Universe, God, Goddess, or whatever it is that you believe in.

Animals Often Help With Their Treatment

An animal's reaction to Reiki can vary from falling asleep to being fidgety and restless, or getting up and moving around. Some animals focus intently on the practitioner's hands and may even lick them, trying to get the energy out. Others will adjust their position under the hands to better utilize the treatment. Some will even learn to recognize a Reiki practitioner and seek out treatments from them.

What Reiki Can Do

It is important to remember that while Reiki  is a very strong force, it is not a substitute for proper Veterinary care. A Reiki practitioner does not diagnose illness, since only a Veterinarian is licensed to do so. A Reiki practitioner facilitates the healing and relief that Reiki can bring. "Reiki works as an effective complement to other healing systems, accelerating the action of other therapies and decreasing side effects", notes Elizabeth Fulton and Kathleen Prasad of the Animal Reiki Center in the San Fransisco Bay area. Reiki can also ease emotional issues such as separation anxiety, phobias, or distress stemming from trauma or abuse. 

Reiki Ideals

As a Reiki Master/Teacher, I remind myself of the following Reiki Ideals each morning when I wake and every evening before I sleep.  

Just for today, I will let go of anger.

Just for today, I will let go of worry.

Just for today, I will give thanks for my many blessings.

Just for today, I will do my work honestly.

Just for today, I will be kind to my neighbour and every living thing.

Integrated Energy Therapy^® (IET) is known as “Healing with the Energy of Angels”. In IET, you learn to access the energy of angels through a simple yet powerful process that we call a Heartlink. 

IET for Pets was developed to help clear energy blockages from the cellular memory of domesticated animals. This class focuses on the most common pets (dogs, cats, and horses). The techniques can be adopted for many other species of animals. Animals are so sensitive and take on so much of our human "stuff" that we need to help clear them. As well, we also need to keep in mind that since it is the human stuff they take on, that the animal’s guardians need to be cleared as well.
