Reiki

About Reiki

Reiki is a holistic system of energy healing, and provides a space for the horse to “unpack or release” what is going on for them right now.

A reiki session consists of placing hands lightly on the horse to establish a connection (sometimes a “hands off” approach is required if the horse is extremely agitated and pacing). No pressure or manipulation of muscles are made, as Reiki works with the horse’s current state of energy flowing through its body.

Energy flows through the body of a horse in good health like that of an electric current. However, several internal and external influences can interfere with this continuous flow of energy going around the whole body. These may consist of but not limited to:

  • A physical injury
  • Sudden dietary changes
  • Emotional trauma (such as death of a paddock mate or being sold to a new owner and coping with a changed environment)

The Senior Horse

Some horses prefer the light touch of Reiki to warm their bodies and ease their arthritic condition. Bella here is 27 and most of the time prefers Reiki. I generally get a stretch and a yawn or two from her as her body responds and relaxes into her bodywork session.  

Chance here is 21 and he likes both ETRT and Reiki as his body responds well to both modalities.

Every horse is an individual and no two bodywork sessions will be the same for any horse.

My service rate is $110 per horse - this includes travel. Each session usually lasts 45mins to 1 hour depending on your horse’s needs. Cancellations with less than 24 hours' notice will attract a $55 fee.

I have been using Sarah since August 2022. My stallion reacts negatively to the smallest pain and takes constant management. I have used other amazing body workers in the Tamworth area, however I have found Sarah has been the most effective at getting his issues straightened out. Aside from being fabulous at her job, Sarah builds a beautiful connection with the horse and they melt into her.  

Sarah is always on time and is easy to book in with.

Sarah has been working on my horses since 2015. I have riding horses and Clydesdales that are shown in harness, led classes, ridden and compete in ploughing competitions.

Whether it’s following an injury or in preparation for a show, Sarah plays a critical part of keeping my horses supple.

I ask a lot of my horses physically and mentally. I’m always seeking that little bit more suppleness, kindness and movement from all my horses, and I believe Sarah helps me to achieve this by the work she does on releasing tension, correcting muscle alignment and relaxing my horses before and after an event.

Sarah is reliable, kind, gentle, knowledgeable and plays a critical role in keeping my horses at the peak performance level I need.  I highly recommend Sarah to work on your horses too. Not only will you thank her, but so will your horses.

Prior to Sarah working on my horse, he was not giving me 100% when turning to the near side and short on all gaits. Bandit is a unique horse in that he generally needs to be warmed up and trotted out before an event.

After a session with Sarah he was ready to go, no warmup needed and totally feeling free in all gaits. There was a vast improvement in his athletic ability in a short period of time.
