This is no doubt a topic which has come up a lot previously, and I'm sure there will be quite a big divide in opinion on the matter but I would like to know of anyone's experiences with animal communicators and reiki animal healers?
I'm considering getting one out for my boy because he is often lame and vet treatment doesn't seem to help (I don't ride him while he is lame, just to clarify!).
The subject of the lameness isn't the issue here, what I'd like to know people's views and experiences with reiki healers and animal communicators are.
Thanks :)
 
As long as your careful who you use, ie get recommendations first then yes do it.

Personally I believe it, not just because of what my animals have communicated but also how they've reacted to the reiki.

Our lads being done on friday by the lady we use xx
 
I believe that those who want to be convinced will be, and those like me who are deeply dubious will remain so. The only way to test the evidence of these things, is to try it yourself. If you can justify the cost, I don't see it can do any harm.
 
Well the reason I would try it is for the healing aspect to see if it could do anything for the lameness. There's an AC relatively near to me who doesn't charge too much that I have heard of so I'm thinking it might be worth giving a go
 
Perhaps head to a human healing group first??

Not sure if I believe or not, word of mouth may be the best route.

As far as cost goes, just wanted to mention that the people i know who do it heal for free! In our area the healers i have spoken to believe they were given their gift to heal not to make money from it.......... I guess a full time healer would have to charge, but I am more inclined to go with a person who genuinely wants to help.

We have a friend who did reiki on my daughter's pony when she was very ill and it seemed to be a nice experience for the horse (obviously she was receiving full veterinary care too!)

sorry, mentioned the human healing group as that is where the people who offer their skills for free come from around here!!!!
 
I have had both come out to my boy...plus a healer - to try and get to the bottom of his behaviour. The healer was the cheapest, then the reiki lady (who would do it for free if you were desperate) and then the communicator.

My horse loathed the healer, just about put up with the reiki lady and tried to avoid 'talking' to the horse communicator...Out of the three I think I would get the communicator out again, as she went alot more into where he hurt etc.

However my mums horse responds really well to the healer (whose cost is literally just his petrol). So I suppose it depends on the horse.

I also got a good old down to earth McTimoney chiropractor out for my boy and so far she is the only person he hasn't tried to eat and stood like a lamb for (the horse communicator also told me he liked her!). It also made the most amount of difference. Though depends on what you think the lameness may come from.

I hope you get to the bottom of it.
 
I think it's all nonsense, but I wouldn't blame you for trying it if you've exhausted all other alternatives. I think I'd have to be very desperate indeed before I even considered it myself though :D

I am both, but I loathe being asked to do communications where vet treatment hasn't helped, as it seems to put expectation on the communicator that they will come up with the answer. Sometimes you can, sometimes you can't, and individuals work in different ways, but I seem to mainly pick up on where the horse is hurting, which isn't always the source of the problem, and can be totally misleading.

It is further veterinary treatment you should be seeking, not animal communication in my opinion. Any animal communicator who is asked to help to diagnose a horse's lameness or such is being put in an awkward position, as legally qualified vets are the only people who are allowed to diagnose, and rightly so.

Reiki by all means can be used alongside veterinary treatment but again, I'd much rather recommend further veterinary treatment. And that's the converted preaching to you! :o

I agree with this to a degree. I think with any communication you need to be careful because if the horse has a constant nagging pain they may not relate to it as we do. I say this as I had a communicattion done for my horse, who was extremely aggressive, I also had a shiatsu therapist to see him and an iridology report done.

In the communication the communicator told me all sorts about the horse from the horse, which substantiated beyond a doubt that the communicator was talking to my horse. He told her he had been abused and he had had it with people.He spoke of being whipped and punched in the face. He just wanted to be left alone. He said he found ridden work too difficult and he showed her that he had had an injury via a fall to his right hand hind high up pelvic region and left shoulder.
The horse never complained about bad pain to the AC.

I had an iridology chart done from photos of both of my horse's eyes. She could only complete a 60% report as it is so hard to photograph well enough and she was situated too far away to come to me. She said that the horse had a misaligned pelvis both sides. She could see a R/H hind injury high up but could not say if still active. She also picked up on a gut problem (he had had gastric ulcers). She could tell he was a worrier thinker type. etc All in all very impressive.

The shiatsu lady came out and the minute she touched my horse she started crying. She said he was in great pain, that she may be able to help him but it would take a very long time. She felt the abuse he had suffered -at the hands of his trainers.

The horse was diagnosed with chronic Sacro illiac dysfunction at Newmarket weeks later. His aggression was pain and fear related. He is a sweet horse now, recovering mentally - the physical is unlikely. I have validated that he was indeed abused - poor horse has always been in pain probably since he was a 2 yr old and then you can imagine - forced breaking - hit because he would kick and buck (due to SI pain) - he double barrelled and broke a groom's arm in 3 places (who could blame him). Then he was sold out via a dealer, went to a show jumper - she conned me into buying, (I did have a 5 stage vetting done, but I am certain she knew of the problems), but I have no regrets he has taught me a lot.

So 'oh yes' - no doubt in my mind at the power of healers and communicators, but remember as Naturally said - just because the horse has a sore hock does not necessarily mean just that - possibly back pain etc etc. My trio of 'alternative therapies' cost £100 and the lameness clinic diagnosis at Newmarket £4,000.

As as reiki practitioner too I agree with naturally that we would never diagnose ..... we might feel where something is wrong / painful but that is not always where the physical problem is. Like in humans who feel the pain of a heart attack often in the jaw or arm rather than the chest.... or the pain of ulcer / diaphragm problem up in the shoulder... and a slipped disc pain is felt in the leg / buttock. That is not to say we dont have a good idea what is wrong in some cases but I would never offer a diagnosis.

Reiki can assist the body in healing and / or ease pain but it is not a cure all ( well neither is conventional medicine ;)) and I see it as a support for other means of making us all get to as best health we can.
 
Thanks everybody for your replies!
I wouldn't be looking for a solid diagnosis, more an indication of what the possibilities are, and id like to know how badly he's in pain from it and if anything that has been done in the past has helped. (i realise that this might be too in depth to be asked by a communicator, but as I've never used one I'm not sure?) The reiki and healers I find particularly intriguing, and I know they aren't necessarily going to work for my boy but conventional medicine doesn't work for this problem so I'm going to try out other options to see if I can help him that way.
YasandCrystal, how did you get in touch with the iridologist? Could you tell me a bit more about that please?
Thanks :)

I would of agreed with you wholeheartedly had I not witnessed this myself with several horses. It was incredible, the horses appeared to really benefit from it and the communication that appeared to come from them was information that was incredibly helpful and with one horse actually stopped him from being put down when he was due to be pts. This horse is now happily hacking out although gently he is sound when the vets said nothing more could be done. The Reiki lady pointed out another area where the horse was in pain and when this area was worked on it sorted out every thing else that was going on him with. Many little stories have come from seeing this done. I got her to look at my little rescue jack russell who has been very badly beaten in her last home leaving her with 3 legs and a wonky tail. I expected tales of woe from her but the Reiki lady strugged to communicate with her because of the amount of excitable energy coming from her. aparently she is so excited and happy with her new life with us she is trying to tell the world!
My daughter SJ pony who is a bit of a superstar would barely deign to talk to her because he felt she was beneath him. all she got from him was that he put up with the other horses but that he was the 'main one'. He also adored my daughter but wished that sometimes she would just 'shut up' and let him get on with his job!!! lol

The iridology was done by Leanne/Catherine of Natural Horse Solutions see link

http://equine-natural-health.co.uk/mtt9.htm

It is something that has always fascinated me and I want to go on and train in it eventually. If possible if you have a practitioner near you get one out rather than via photos as the pictures have to be such high detail to read.

My vet was intrigued by the report. I used the iridology and the other therapies because you couldn't have carried out any nerve blocks etc on my horse at that time, he was just so aggressive with teeth, hind legs and forelegs. I tried an energy therapist and he attacked me so badly following that. I had a short communication done as he was then on the verge of being pts and the communicator told me that she could only describe the horse as absolutely furious that I brought someone in to interfere with him and that was why he bit me so nastily. He didn't see that I was trying to help, which shows the danger of thinking that horses see things like us - they clearly don't!!!
 
JuliaG, it's a similar situation with my boy re the lameness, the vets have said there is nothing they can do to fix it but I'm thinking there may be more to it than they think, so getting an AC to "have a word with him" might shed some light on if there is anything I can do to help him that hasn't already been tried.
Loving the story of the superstar horse - what a diva! :)
YasandCrystal, thanks a lot for the link, I'll look into getting it done for my boy, I find things like that fascinating. I'll see if there's a practitioner locally but if not I'll have to practice taking photos until I'm good enough to send one off :p
 
Speaking as both a full time animal communicator and animal healer, I make it very clear to any client who contacts me in these circumstances that it is an offence under the Veterinary Surgeons Act 1968 for anyone other than a vet to diagnose a condition, even saying a horse looks healthy is classed as a 'diagnosis'! I would be happy to do a communication, but were healing required, it should not be carried out without the vets (preferably written) permission - this complies with the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons code. I have worked with many vets and the majority are happy and interested for me to carry out my work in support of current veterinary treatment.

I find it sad that people are so sceptical of animal communicatiors, I fully appreciate that there are 'bad' ones out there in the same way that there are 'bad' vets. I have helped many clients come to a better understanding and therefore working relationship with their animals and in some cases have been able to provide an explanation that helps the owner understand what has been happening to their animal.

Although I have always had a very deep connection with animlas, particularly horses, and have been 'communicating' with them in my own way all my life, I have actually undergone professional training in order to become an AC practitioner and have taken professional assessment, doing communicaitons with a vet, animal behaviourist, someone in animal welfare and an animal trainer with animals that I knew nothing about. In each of the assessments I was expected to achieve 90% or above accuracy and effectiveness in order to pass. By passing these assessments it means I am now able to be fully insured and have a proven record. In all honesty I currently get all my clients by word of mouth and have not yet had to advertise, which I feel speaks for it self in terms of customer satisfaction.

I really hope you get to the bottom of the issues with your horse.
Best wishes

This is where my AC was right and the vet was wrong. Mine had sidebones still forming other vet said it was his Pedal osetits sp? Now with a change of vet's and farrier he is now sound and pulling my arms out!!

Im glad my AC suggest I get a 2nd opnion as I would of dread to think what pain I would of put him though-egg bar shoes with Equi-pac!!

Im not saying this is what will happern to yours as everyhorse is different. Just go with your gut's feelings Im glad I did!!
 
Thank u Bojangles, that is kind of what I'm hoping will happen with my boy! I know it's a long shot but I really want to try everything I can to get to the bottom of his problem, I hate to see him in pain and I don't know what else I can do for him :-/ watching him wander around today was horrible, he was blatantly very sore and I really wish there is something I can do for him :(

Epsilon, do all ACs need written permission from a vet? I'm not looking for a diagnosis just an indication of what could be wrong, where is hurting etc. As an AC could you please give me a bit of info as to how in-depth you can communicate with horses? Obviously every horse is different and I guess some would be more receptive to it than others, but in general what can you find out? For example if I could ask my boy anything I'd ask where he is in pain, if it is constant, how bad it is, and if anything has been done in the past that has made it better that I could do again? My thoughts would be that this is too in-depth to ask (I'm not saying that I don't think horses are intelligent, I just think it would be difficult to convey what I want to know without words) In your experience would it be possible to ask things like this?

My horse has sidebone and is treated with aluminium eggbars and some gel stuff....what am I missing, is there something else I could look at??
 
I had a well known communicator see my horse when she did a yard visit. To be honest, there wasn't anything amazing, that made me think "wow" that she said. The lady she brought though was a reiki healer and although she didn't practise on any horses, she seemed to give off some sort of aura, as a lot of the horses laid down in their stables and dozed!!

I'd be tempted to send some tail hair off to another communicator though, just to see again. I want to believe it, that's the problem!!

Hi,

We only need vet's permission to do the healing. The AC is seperate, in a way a little like having a chat, so would not need the vet's permission. All the questions that you want to ask are ones that I have asked animals previsouly, so no they are not too in depth. I personally can pick up physical things from the animal on my body, for example if there is a problem with a hip, my hip may start to ache. I know this is coming from the animal in two ways, one because when I break the connection with the animal any aches and pains stop immediately, and secondly because these things have happened too many times during too many different communications to be coincidence! Different communicators have different strngths and some may get more in depth than others. We all work in slightly different ways as I say, I get a lot of physical feelings, I find that I see/feel injuries/issues on an animals body as shadows whcih vary in density depending on age and severity which have been confirmed when checked independently by a chiro or vet. I find communicating with animlas is very much like talking to various humans! Some are very deep and quiet and you need to be respectful of this when communicating, whilst others greet you with a 'how long have you got to chat because...'!

The way I communicate is extremely simple, I quieten my mind so that the animals thoughts and feelings are louder than mine, then I can interpret what I see/feel/hear and pass the information onto the owenr, who always has the final say in what to do with the information.
Some AC's need a photo without any other animals and some hair, whereas half the time I only need a name or maybe a photo - sometimes not even that as the animal will make itself heard as I'm talking to the person!
 
Epsilon, that is really interesting, I'd love to be able to do what you do, I would love to be able to communicate with my animals like that!
With reference to what you say about a photo, does that mean you can get information remotely, from just seeing a photo, having the horses name and talking with the owner?

Bumblelion, I've never seen an AC at work (yet!) but I'm really intrigued by the idea and totally believe it is possible and could be very beneficial depending on what is learnt from the communication, it really is something I want to try for my boy as I don't know what else I can do for him :(

I'm not a skeptic, calling myself a skeptic would mean I have doubts. Especially with the last statement. I personally have no doubts it all quackery. I've never heard so much baloney. I don't know how some people sleep at night. These are my own feelings and it's easy for me type them on an open forum, but I feel this is a place to air your views
 
AC helped me and my boy and it was through someone on here - thank you! OP I think if you feel that it would help, perhaps it might...
