Animal Reiki

I have significant experience with animals exhibiting separation anxiety, general anxiety, depression, reactivity, and rescue animals integrating into a new environment. I use many different calming, relaxing, IET (Integrated Energy Therapy) and Reiki strategies to help animals feel comfortable and support them during a session or while their owners are away. Reiki is a Japanese technique for relaxation that also promotes healing. It’s done through touch. A warm and soothing energy flows from the hands into the client, promoting relaxation and releasing tension.

Animal Reiki Session

  • It is a safe energy healing method that is done by placing the hands on or slightly above the animal, or it can be done remotely.

  • Allows positive energy to flow into the body through the hands of the practitioner, which helps to balance and heal the energy in the body.

  • Promotes natural healing by activating, balancing, and increasing the life force within us by using our own natural ability to take in positive energies that restore the body’s natural ability to heal itself.

  • It corrects energy imbalances in an animal’s body and can even occur from a distance. A cat or dog session usually lasts 15 to 30 minutes.

Benefits of Animal Reiki

  • Reiki is safe, gentle, and noninvasive.

  • Alleviating anxiety, stress, depression and producing a state of calm.

  • Helping to heal after surgery, injury, or trauma.

  • Provide comfort for terminally ill pets.

  • Reiki improves the results of all other types of healing or medical treatments.

  • It is a wonderful complementary therapy in any healing or wellness program.

Types of Animals That Reiki Can Help

  • Animals experiencing acute pain from injury or surgery.

  • Animals experiencing chronic pain from cancer, kidney disease, and arthritis.

  • Animals experiencing behavioral concerns or trauma

  • Integrating into a new family, home, or traveling with care- taker

Reiki /Energy Sessions For Animals :

IN-HOME ANIMAL REIKI SESSION ($125):

This at-home session with your pet will allow your companion to be at ease in his or her most familiar environment. Includes a 15-minute consultation and a Reiki session of at least 30 minutes, as well as pre-appointment preparation off-site. I will sometimes incorporate crystals and oils into the session as needed. (Additional travel fee of $0.655 per mile may apply for locations further than 5 miles from the Saratoga area of New York.)

DISTANCE ANIMAL REIKI SESSION ($80):

Includes an email or phone consultation before the treatment, a distance healing session, and a follow-up email or text. (Total time: 30-45 minutes).

Though many ailments disappear after one treatment session, it is much more common to see improvements after multiple sessions. It has taken years to build up energy that interrupts the flow of Ki (energy). As one interruption is released, others may come to the surface, and deeper transformations can be realized. Reiki is most effective with 1-2 weeks in between treatments.

Tara established an immediate rapport with my cat upon the meet and greet. She put me at ease with photos and video updates during the cat visit. My cat has many health conditions, and I was impressed by the Pet Reiki session leaving her visibly relaxed and content. I highly recommend Sit N’ Stay Saratoga to anyone in the area needing a petsitter or Pet Reiki session!
