Deep Healing for Pets Who Need More Than a Quick Fix

Comprehensive Animal Reiki packages for rescue animals, chronically anxious pets, and animals recovering from illness or trauma

The Reality of Deep Healing

How many times have you watched your pet finally relax after a session—only to see the anxiety creep back in a few days later?

Maybe your rescue dog stopped trembling and even played for the first time in weeks. Or your cat emerged from under the bed and let you pet her. For a moment, you felt hope. You thought, "This is it. We're turning a corner."

Then the pacing started again. The hiding. The hypervigilance. And you wondered if anything really changed at all.

I've sat with dozens of pet parents in this exact moment, and here's what I've learned: your pet did shift. The session worked. But one session can't undo months or years of learned fear, absorbed stress, or trauma lodged in their nervous system.

Think of it this way: one session opens the door. But animals who've lived in survival mode need time to trust that the door will stay open. They need consistency to believe that safety is real, not temporary.

Surface-level relief isn't the same as deep transformation. When your pet is carrying trauma from their past, absorbing your daily stress, or recovering from illness, their nervous system needs more than a single energetic shift. It needs ongoing support to fully recalibrate.

One session plants the seed. Multiple sessions give that seed time to root.

What Pet Parents Are Saying

"The real magic happened during the Reiki session for my dog."

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Sheena from Flourishing Roots Wellness for a house cleansing and a Reiki session for my dog, Haymish. I couldn't be more grateful for the experience. From the moment she arrived, Sheena brought such a calm, grounding energy into my home.

But the real magic happened during the Reiki session for my dog. Sheena connected with him so intuitively and gently, and I could see a visible shift in his energy. He became noticeably calmer and more relaxed, even after the session had ended. It was truly beautiful to witness.

Sheena is incredibly gifted, kind, and professional. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking to bring more balance and harmony into their space and their lives. I'll definitely be working with her again!"

  • Christine (Haymish's mom)

"She's also provided my dog with animal reiki, and she LOVES it!!"

"Sheena is a great reiki practitioner! I've watched her grow her business over the past three years! I definitely recommend her services! I leave feeling lighter and less stressed after my intuitive wellness session. She's also provided my dog with animal reiki, and she LOVES it!!"

  • Royler (Daisy’s Pack Leader)

I'm a certified Animal Reiki Master Teacher with specialized training in nervous system healing and polyvagal theory. More importantly, animals tell me where they need healing—and they stay close afterward. That trust is everything.

Who These Packages Are For

When Your Pet Needs More Than a Quick Fix

You've probably already tried everything. The trainer who said your dog just needs more exercise. The vet who prescribed anxiety medication. The expensive calming supplements. Maybe some of these helped a little, but the anxiety never fully went away.

Or maybe you've already done a single Reiki session and saw real improvement—but now you're watching those old patterns return and you know your pet needs ongoing support, not just a one-time boost.

In my practice, I've found that certain animals need multi-session packages for deep, lasting change:

😰 Chronically anxious pets.
If your pet is reactive on walks, can't settle even at home, startles at every sound, or lives in constant hypervigilance, their nervous system is stuck in survival mode. Medication might take the edge off, but it doesn't address the energetic root. These pets need time to learn that their nervous system can actually rest.

🏠 Rescue animals carrying trauma.
If your pet came from a shelter, survived neglect or abuse, or experienced abandonment, their nervous system learned that the world isn't safe. One session can show them safety is possible, but it takes consistent work to rewire that deeply embedded fear. These animals need time to release trauma layer by layer and relearn what security feels like.

🩹 Pets recovering from illness, surgery, or injury.
Physical healing and energetic healing happen together. When your pet's body is working hard to recover, their energy system needs ongoing support too. Multi-session packages give their nervous system the sustained care it needs during the vulnerable healing period.

🐾 Senior animals in their final chapter.
Your older pet deserves comfort, dignity, and peace. Whether they're experiencing physical discomfort, anxiety about their changing body, or simply need help with the transition ahead, regular sessions can ease their journey and give them the gentle support they need.

🔄 Animals absorbing your energy.
This is the one that surprises people. If you're going through a stressful time—job changes, relationship challenges, health issues, financial worry—your pet feels it. They don't understand why you're anxious, but their nervous system mirrors yours. When your stress is ongoing, your pet needs regular energetic clearing so they're not carrying your emotional load alongside their own.

What to Expect

  • Small animal sessions last approximately 30 minutes. Large animal sessions last approximately 60 minutes. For distance sessions, we connect via Google Meet so you can witness your pet's response in real time. For house calls, I come to your home (or barn) where your pet feels most comfortable and safe.

    Most animals respond to Reiki immediately. You might see your dog sigh and settle into a deep rest. Your cat might move closer or start grooming—signs they're releasing tension. Horses often lower their heads, soften their eyes, or shift their weight as they relax. These visible changes tell us their nervous system is shifting from survival mode into rest and healing.

  • I recommend weekly or bi-weekly sessions. This frequency gives your pet's nervous system time to integrate each energetic shift without losing momentum. Think of it like physical therapy—consistency creates lasting change.

    Between sessions, you'll start to notice shifts:

    Deeper rest. Your pet might sleep more heavily than usual. This is integration—their nervous system is processing and rewiring. Let them rest.

    Temporary emotional releases. Sometimes old patterns surface before they clear. Your pet might seem more anxious for a day or two, or you might see behaviors you thought were resolved. This isn't regression—it's the energy moving out. It passes quickly.

    Gradual reduction in anxiety. The pacing slows. The startling at sounds becomes less frequent. Your pet settles faster, stays calm longer. The changes are often subtle at first, then suddenly you realize your pet is a different animal than they were weeks ago.

    More presence with you. As your pet's nervous system stabilizes, they become more available for connection. Eye contact increases. They seek you out. The bond deepens because they're no longer spending all their energy managing fear.

  • You may notice:

    • Periods of deeper sleep (integration happening)

    • Temporary emotional releases (old patterns clearing)

    • Gradual reduction in anxiety behaviors

    • More moments of calm and presence

    • Improved connection between you and your pet

  • Life happens. If you need to reschedule a session, just give me 24 hours notice.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Packages don't expire, but I recommend using sessions within 3-4 months for best results. Consistent, regular sessions create the most lasting transformation.

  • Absolutely. Many clients start with a house call so I can assess their pet in person, then switch to distance sessions for convenience.

  • After your package is complete, we can discuss ongoing wellness plans or individual maintenance sessions to support your pet long-term.

  • Yes! Animal Reiki complements veterinary care and medication—it doesn't replace it. I always recommend working with your vet alongside energy healing.

  • Consider adding a Pet + Person combo session or booking your own Intuitive Wellness Session. When both ends of the bond are healing, transformation happens faster.

  • Small animals (cats, dogs, rabbits, etc.) require less physical space and travel time for house calls. Large animals (horses, livestock, etc.) often need barn or stable visits and longer session times, which is reflected in the pricing above.

Still Not Sure?

Start with a single session to see how your pet responds. If you decide to book a package within 30 days, I'll credit your single session cost toward the package price.
