Healing Through Reiki: Connecting Energy Across Humans and Horses

Jess Symons

Reiki is more than just a healing technique—it’s a spiritual practice rooted in channelling universal life energy to promote balance and well-being. Originating from Mikao Usui in Japan during the 1920s, Reiki has grown into a worldwide healing art, offering physical, emotional, and spiritual benefits.


For Jess, Reiki wasn’t just a discovery—it was a homecoming. Over a decade ago, during a time of personal struggle, Jess was introduced to Reiki and felt an instant, undeniable connection. What began as a personal healing journey evolved into a lifelong practice of supporting others, both human and equine. After receiving her Level 2 attunement, Jess began offering Reiki to horses, drawn to their sensitivity to energy and their ability to reflect emotional states.


The Origins and Philosophy of Reiki

Reiki healing is an ancient energy practice that originated in Japan in the early 20th century, developed by Mikao Usui after a profound spiritual experience. Rooted in the belief that universal life energy flows through all living things, Reiki aims to restore balance by dissolving energy blockages that can lead to physical, emotional, or spiritual discomfort.


The practice of Reiki is often described as a sacred process that involves attunement, or the passing of healing energy from teacher to student. This ceremonial initiation aligns the practitioner with the flow of Reiki energy, allowing them to access and channel it for themselves and others.


A significant part of Reiki healing involves the use of Reiki symbols, which amplify the energy and target specific areas of healing. Traditionally, these symbols were kept secret, shared only with students during advanced training to ensure they were used with reverence and understanding.


Today, Reiki continues to evolve and grow, offering benefits to people and animals alike. Whether through hands-on healing, distance Reiki, or energy work for horses, Reiki provides a non-invasive way to promote relaxation, reduce stress, and create deeper emotional clarity.


Reiki’s accessibility and ability to complement traditional medical care make it a valuable tool for holistic wellness. If you are curious about how Reiki can support your healing journey, Jess offers personalised Reiki sessions for both humans and horses, designed to restore balance and unlock emotional well-being.


Reiki in Practice: Healing Horses and Humans

Jess often witnesses profound changes during equine Reiki sessions. Horses, with their intuitive awareness, respond quickly to shifts in energy. One horse she worked with was known for being tense and anxious around people. After a few sessions, the horse softened—approaching Jess with curiosity and trust.


For humans, Reiki offers similar benefits. Jess recalls a client who carried emotional heaviness for years. After a single session, the client described feeling lighter and more at peace. Reiki isn’t about fixing what’s broken—it’s about reconnecting with the energy that already exists within us.





Offerings: Reiki for Horses and Humans

Jess offers a range of Reiki services:

  • In-Person Reiki: Hands-on healing sessions that focus on relaxation, recovery, and emotional release.

  • Equine Reiki: Supporting horses' physical and emotional health through gentle, non-invasive energy work.

  • Distance Reiki: Available for both horses and humans, ensuring healing can occur no matter the location.


A Journey of Connection and Growth

Jess' Reiki practice is grounded in her connection to the energy of horses and the natural world. It is not just a service—it is a way of life, built on the belief that healing is a partnership between practitioner, client, and the universal energy that flows through all of us.Through regular sessions, clients often experience a shift toward calm, feeling lighter and more centred.


What Does the Process Look Like?

  • Phase One: Weekly sessions for 3-4 weeks to restore balance and initiate emotional release.

  • Ongoing Support: Bi-weekly or monthly sessions to maintain emotional well-being and prevent energy blockages from returning.

  • During Sessions: Expect warmth, tingling, or deep relaxation as energy flows, creating a profound sense of peace. Clients frequently report emotional releases, such as tears or unexpected feelings of joy and lightness.


After Sessions: Jess encourages grounding activities like meditation, journaling, and time in nature to extend the benefits. Hydration and self-compassion are also essential.


Consistency is key. Many clients notice reduced anxiety after just 3-5 sessions, with lasting improvements as sessions continue.


Supporting Your Journey

In addition to Reiki, incorporating daily mindfulness exercises, breathwork, and gentle physical activity helps anchor the healing process. Reiki works best when clients actively participate in their healing, creating a holistic path forward.
