Birch Wellness Center - Animal Reiki Care - Nationwide
No matter their size or species, animals are very open to receiving Reiki’s relaxing energy!
Reiki is ideal for animal wellness, it can help animals in a variety of ways. With healthy animals, Reiki can help maintain health on all levels. Reiki can heal physical illness and injury in animals as well as problems on emotional and spiritual levels. It is a powerful tool for emotional healing following trauma, abuse, neglect, fear and trust issues, reaching deeply into even the most damaged spirits.
For high strung or nervous animals, Reiki induces deep relaxation and stress reduction and, over time, can reduce the tendency toward nervousness. Reiki can accelerate healing after surgery or illness.
It complements both conventional and alternative therapies and can enhance their actions and lessen their side effects. For a terminally ill animal and his people, Reiki provides compassionate support that can make the transition more peaceful for all concerned.
• Reiki is gentle, painless, non-invasive and stress free.
• Reiki heals at all levels of an animals being: Physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.
• It goes to those issues most in need of healing, even those unknown to the practitioner.
• Reiki can be given at a distance and adapted to any problem that affects animals.
• Reiki can do no harm to the recipient or the practitioner.
• Animals do not have to be confined or restrained to be treated.
• The animal retains large control over his own process of healing, how much Reiki they will accept and under what circumstances, they are an active part of the healing process.
I travel to the Reiki recipients house to give Reiki healing sessions to animals because most animals feel stressed in an unfamiliar environment and are more relaxed in their own home.
If possible, I try to find a quiet place to give the treatment, a place familiar to the animal. It could be a horse’s stall, or a room in the animals home where the animal may move around safely with no constraints.

About Lori Charett — Certified Animal Reiki Healer in Christiansburg, VA
Lori is a certified animal reiki healer based in Christiansburg, VA, offering virtual sessions to pet parents and their animals nationwide. With a personalized, animal-led approach to every session, Lori works with cats, dogs, horses, birds, and other animal companions — helping them find calm, balance, and relief from the physical and emotional challenges that affect their quality of life. Whether your pet is anxious, aging, recovering from illness, or simply out of balance, Lori brings genuine care and certified expertise to every session.
The best animal reiki practitioners don't just offer energy work — they take time to understand your pet's full history, temperament, and specific needs before a session begins. Lori brings that philosophy to every booking, working with you to ensure each session is as effective and comfortable as possible for your animal companion.
What Lori Can Help With
Lori works with pets across a wide range of physical and emotional challenges. Anxiety, fearfulness, and stress-related behaviors are among the most common reasons pet parents seek out a certified healer — and gentle energy work can produce meaningful, lasting calm even in highly reactive or emotionally overwhelmed animals. For aging pets managing chronic pain, reduced vitality, or the challenges of illness, reiki offers a non-invasive way to support comfort and quality of life alongside traditional veterinary care.
Lori also works with rescue animals and recently rehomed pets — helping them release emotional imprints from difficult past experiences and settle more fully into their new environment. For pets recovering from surgery or injury, reiki can complement the rehabilitation process by supporting the body's natural healing response and reducing stress during recovery. And for families navigating end-of-life transitions, Lori provides gentle, compassionate support — offering comfort and energetic balance for both the animal and the people who love them.

Lori is a verified, certified animal reiki professional with credentials you can trust and real reviews from pet parents who've experienced their work firsthand. Every session is personalized and animal-led — tailored to your pet's unique needs, comfort level, and specific challenges rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach. Virtual sessions are available to pet parents across the US, meaning your animal companion receives healing from the comfort and familiarity of home regardless of where you're located. Lori is based in Christiansburg, VA and serves pet parents nationwide through PetWorks.
