Reiki
Reiki (ray-key)  is Japanese for ‘universal life energy' and  is a very powerful holistic therapy. It is an ancient, simple and practical technique for deep relaxation and hands-on healing. Reiki rebalances the physical body, clears the mind, calms the emotions and reawakens the connection with our spirituality. The therapist channels energy through themselves, and into the patient. There is an unlimited supply of universal energy around us.

Modern day scientific research has proved the existence of this “life force” and today, doctors and medical professionals consider the role is has as a viable form of healing and self development. Reiki is a technique that allows you to reach into that life force and improve the quality of life and health of the subject or yourself. Reiki is a natural, safe and simple form of self improvement and healing. It treats the whole being and can be given to anything from humans and animals to plants and food. There is an immense “feel good” emotion during and after a Reiki treatment and can it create feelings of relaxation, peacefulness and well being.

Dogs respond well to Reiki and it can be used to help dogs with behaviour problems along side good understanding and training. It is also beneficial to nervous or shy dogs. Rescue dogs often respond well to Reiki as it can help them to unlock past emotions and come to terms with them We cannot always know what our dog is feeling and what memories he has stored up. Reiki can help soothe and calm stressed dogs. Reiki works on the body as a whole, and there have been many reports of it assisting in removing energy blocks in the body which are leading to poor health, and then allowing the energy to flow again and improving the health of the being.

Reiki (remote) healing energy over any distance.
Reiki healing is not only a method of hands-on healing, but the healing energy may also be sent to a person or animal at a location remote from the healer. Excellent results in both physical and emotional ailments can be experienced with Reiki sessions.

Reiki is a healing therapy in which practitioners channel universal energy ('Rei' and 'Ki' being Japanese words for 'Universal' and 'Energy'), either through their hands, or using distant healing techniques, it has it’s own inherent intelligence.  This intelligence allows it to focus on the most needed areas of healing completely automatically, thereby suiting the needs of the receiver in the very best way. The Reiki energy directs itself to the correct areas, both the exterior bodily symptoms and also the deeper root causes that may exist in the mind/spirit connection.

Reiki is a powerful healing art rediscovered by Dr. Mikao Usui. Reiki is for everyone including animals! It has healing benefits at all levels; physical, emotional and spiritual and is an excellent adjunct therapy to traditional and complementary medical care. Reiki is a completely natural healing method, it is particular good for pre and post-operative care as it speeds up the body's ability to heal.

Distance healing is widely practiced and is also extremely effective, as the universal healing energy will be received by you for your best and highest good. The energy may or may not produce physical sensations, but the healing energy is always received, an  energy treatment that supports and encourages the body's own healing process.

Reiki practitioners are not trained in diagnosis and will not offer any diagnosis or prognosis.  Everything in its simplest form is energy. Energy travels a little like radio waves and remote healing is as effective as 'hands on'. but a contact meeting initially is very useful.
If people are concerned about their pet they should see a veterinarian. Most animals feel relaxed and at peace after receiving Reiki.
