Reiki For Animals

Reiki is a complementary therapy, which will support veterinary care for your animal very effectively, but does not remove the need to consult a vet when an animal requires treatment.

Helps to calm and relax, and is reassuring.

The Protection of Animals Act 1911 requires that if an animal clearly needs treatment from a veterinary surgeon the owner must obtain this, and we will require an assurance from the owner to this effect prior to any Reiki being given. The Veterinary Surgery Act of 1966 prohibits anyone other than a qualified veterinary surgeon from treating animals, including diagnosis of ailments and giving of advice on such diagnosis.

However the healing of animals by contact healing, by the laying on of hands or distant healing is legal. To give emergency First Aid to animals for the purpose of saving life or relieving pain is permissible under the Veterinary Surgeons Act 1966 Schedule 3.

Depending on the type of animal, and particular requirements, Reiki may be given at our premises in Ludgershall or 'on-site'.

Short sessions of 15-30 minutes are recommended, depending on type of animal receiving the Reiki.
