Learn More About Our New Reiki Service!



Recently Wagging Tails started offering Reiki services with Lisa. We had our first session with one of our client’s dogs, Pico, and the owners were extremely impressed with the results. They even wanted 6 more sessions!


Due to the growing popularity, we wanted to explain and clarify what Reiki is and how it is performed. Reiki is a wonderful treatment for dogs with anxiety or behavioral issues. Rei, which means spirit, and Ki, which means energy, so the name Reiki directly translates to “spiritual energy”.  Essentially, it provides hands-on healing through touch when applied from one living thing to another. 


Calmness is created through the utilization of a meditative space. Some studies have found that it is a great “complimentary” therapy that can aid in helping dogs with conditions such as anxiety, coping with illness or surgery recovery, and end-of-life care. It can also help with bonding between pets and humans!


Generally, a Reiki session will start with discussing your pet and its preferences. This can include places they don’t like being touched, their behavior, or any concerns you might have. Reiki tends to be guided by non-verbal cues and respects the animal's space which develops the peaceful atmosphere needed to be successful. Typically a combination of massages and meditation can be used as well. 





Reiki seeks to heal the whole animal, both physically and emotionally! We are overjoyed to be offering this new service, and can’t wait to share more success stories with everyone.
