Is your furry friend acting strangely lately? Do they take medications for any illnesses or injuries? Well, it’s time to try Reiki for dogs. As dog owners, we know the pain of living with a grieving pet. Most of us, if not all, would do anything to see our dogs running around the house happy and excited again, right? Reiki has proven to be an excellent solution for different mental or physical problems in dogs.

While this ancient Japanese treatment is highly recommended for dogs suffering from physical, mental, or emotional illnesses, it can also be beneficial for your dog's overall health.

So, what is dog aura?

Reiki is a healing practice that involves the use of life force energy to heal people and animals Even plants. Life force energy can cure most diseases and promote their overall health. It’s worth mentioning that this life force energy is channeled through the practitioner and flows to your dog. The practitioner never generates or contributes any energy.

Normally, only a Reiki healer can perform Reiki treatments. However, anyone can become a Reiki practitioner after undergoing Reiki initiation.

How does Reiki work?

Good Reiki sessions are done in the morning or evening when the weather is cooler and the winds are calmer. We can do Reiki as a hands-on therapy session or at a distance. It all depends on your furry child. But please note that the success of training depends entirely on your furry child.

When you decide to give your dog Reiki treatment, stick to it. You can't force them though. We must also provide a calm, quiet environment where your dog can feel safe. This means you are officially giving it the chance to heal.

Your dog will decide whether to receive a Reiki practice or enjoy it remotely. The dog's ability to feel will determine the length of the treatment. Your dog will know when it's full, so you don't need to time it.

Reiki is only available to willing subjects.

Your dog must be willing to accept the energy for this to work. We cannot impose energy on the subject. As much as you want your dog to benefit from Reiki, there's no way around it if they don't want it. When energy is forced onto an object, it doesn't work.

How do I know if Reiki is working on my dog

Any sign of relaxation is a sign that Reiki is working on your dog. If we start training when the dog is standing, it will lie down voluntarily and eventually fall asleep or close its eyes. However, some dogs may not show any signs of relaxation, especially those who are too excited to relax.

Can I give Reiki treatment to my dog ​​at home

It will also provide you with the opportunity to enjoy the relaxing benefits of Reiki. The more you practice giving Reiki, the more skilled you will become.

How to Give Reiki Treatments to Dogs

Performing Reiki treatments on dogs is almost the same as giving Reiki treatments on people.

When treating your dog, keep your hands where it is more convenient for you. I usually start by placing my hands behind the dog's ears because this position helps the dog calm down. You can then move your hands so that you place one hand on the dog's chest and the other on its back. But be careful here – don’t put your hands directly on your dog’s heart area!

Don’t worry if you can’t reach all over your dog’s body, as Reiki can flow anywhere and reach any area of ​​the body.

If your dog is injured or has just undergone surgery, do not touch the wound during a Reiki treatment. In this case, distance Reiki treatment makes more sense.

The timing of Reiki treatments may vary. When you feel the energy stop flowing, it's time to end the session. Or, the dog will stand up and leave. This also means you can end the session.
