i`ve been practising reiki for just over two months now and had my first expirience with a dog this week just gone... a couple my friend introduced me to, have a lovely sausage dog called chocky.. she had an operation just before christmas on her spinal column and has only used her legs without support once since the opperation... i took a close friend with me whos a second degree practioner and we gave the dog reiki together for about 45 mins... it was a very beautiful humbling expirience and we felt that we were meant to be there... the next day i recieved a call from the owners who were overwhelmed because chocky had used her legs without support twice!! she made it all the way to the front gate, bless her... were going to return very soon and treat her somemore.. reiki is truely amazing & very beautiful... just thought i`d share my thoughts.
