Animal Reiki: Healing Energy for Dogs
Animal Reiki is a kind, non-invasive healing technique that uses gentle energy to restore balance and promote natural healing in your dog.
Our Animal Reiki Service
At Zest & Bark, we offer Animal Reiki sessions designed to support your dog’s physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. This ancient Japanese practice is based on the concept of “universal life energy,” which flows through all living things. When this energy is blocked or imbalanced, it can lead to physical and emotional distress. Reiki works by clearing these blockages and restoring the natural flow of energy, allowing your dog’s body to heal itself.
During a Reiki session, your dog is invited to relax in a calm, comfortable environment. As a certified Reiki practitioner, I will channel healing energy through my hands to your dog, either by placing my hands directly on their body or working from a short distance if your dog prefers. The energy flows where it is needed most, helping to release blockages and restore balance. Most dogs find Reiki sessions deeply relaxing and may even fall asleep during the treatment.
Why Choose Animal Reiki?
Safe and Gentle
Reiki is a completely safe and gentle approach that is suitable for most canines of various breeds, ages and health conditions and it can be used alongside conventional veterinary treatments.
Holistic Healing
Reiki addresses the whole dog—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. This holistic approach ensures that your dog’s entire being is supported during the healing process.
Deep Relaxation
Many dogs experience a profound sense of peace and relaxation during and after Reiki sessions. This may promote their overall well-being.
What Our Clients Are Saying
"Erika has been absolutely amazing. Our 11-month-old Vizsla, Henry, has been struggling with a skin condition that puzzled both us and our vets. The medications we tried didn’t work, and we were facing a long wait to see a dermatologist. That’s when we found Zest & Bark. Erika’s holistic approach, which included essential oils, dietary adjustments, and natural supplements, brought immediate relief to Henry. The rashes and blisters started healing within days. Erika’s deep understanding of canine health and her commitment to finding a solution for Henry has been a true blessing for us. We are so grateful for her help."
"I’ve owned dogs for over 30 years, and I’ve never met anyone as knowledgeable and dedicated as Erika. My Doberman, Goose, had been suffering from severe dry skin, and nothing we tried seemed to help. On a walk, I mentioned it to Erika, and she suggested an oatmeal poultice followed by an apricot kernel oil massage. Within two weeks, Goose’s skin was completely clear, and his coat was shiny and healthy again. Erika’s expertise in holistic health is unmatched, and her kindness and care shine through in everything she does. I highly recommend her services."
"Erika has been absolutely amazing. Our 11-month Vizsla, Henry, has been suffering from some type of skin disease that we have not yet been able to figure out yet. The 2 vets we have been seeing have not been able to help, not with anti-biotic, or topical treatments. They recommended to see a dermatologist vets, but there are only 2 in Miami and waitlists are long... (it will be another 5 months before we have an appointment with one). In the meantime, rashes and blisters were getting worse every day. I found Zest and Bark, online, and Erika has managed to change our lives. Thanks to a combination of essential oil treatments, supplements and food change, we were able to stop the blisters and rashes. Erika's holistic approach has been way more efficient than the medications we had been giving Henry. Erika's extensive knowledge and her strong desire to help have been a game changer in our dog's life. Not to mention her patience and desire to go the extra mile. We are so thankful."
“Erika has helped myself and my dogs tremendously. She has stepped in to assist during my bitch terrible phantom pregnancy with a bespoke remedy and also with my own pains with endometriosis. I will always reach out for her help. She is caring, passionate and knowledgeable 5* “

Animal Reiki FAQs
What should I expect during a Reiki session?
- Initial Consultation: Before the session begins, we’ll discuss your dog’s health history and any specific issues you’d like to address. This helps us tailor the Reiki session to meet your dog’s unique needs.
- Reiki Treatment: The session itself typically lasts between 30 to 60 minutes, depending on your dog’s comfort level and needs. Your dog can sit, lie down, or even move around during the session – whatever makes them feel most comfortable.
- Post-Session Care: After the session, your dog may feel deeply relaxed and may need some time to rest. It’s important to provide a quiet, comfortable space for them to relax and process the healing energy.
What are the benefits of Animal Reiki?
- Emotional Balance: Dogs, like humans, can experience a range of emotions, including anxiety, fear, and sadness. Reiki support and calm the mind and soothe emotions, making it an ideal therapy for dogs with behavioural issues, anxiety, or trauma.
- Enhanced Healing: Whether your dog is recovering from surgery, illness, or injury, Reiki can support the healing process by boosting the immune system and promoting relaxation. This can lead to faster recovery times and a smoother healing journey.
- Stress Reduction: Reiki induces a deep state of relaxation, and this is especially beneficial for dogs who are nervous, reactive, or experiencing changes in their environment.
