Reiki Stories and Testimonials from Students








Reiki and Dog Disability

"I have an 8 year old dachshund named Roxanne. She had back surgery about 4 years ago, and has been slightly disabled since. Since my Reiki class, I have been working on her when we go to bed at night. Today, a month later, she is a different girl. She runs around a lot. She also jumps up on my legs when I'm in the kitchen (begging) and she also puts her paws up on my foot stool and up on my chair—she couldn't do that 2 months ago. Also, our old girl, Lilleth, who also had back surgery and  eye surgery, wants to lay in my chair next to me every night. She used to do this occasionally (a few times a month), but now it's every night. I haven't worked on her yet, but I think it's time. I love this stuff!

--S.G.J., Reiki Level I









Reiki Self Healing: Ulcerative Colitis


"Reiki has made a major difference with my ulcerative colitis. I have been able to allow the release of this burden. I hardly ever have attacks and I have been able to reduce my medication. That is proof."

--H.W., Reiki Level I, Seattle









Reiki and Veterinary Practice


"I am a veterinarian and I met Rose De Dan when my cat was dying of a nasal tumor and I had exhausted all of my traditional medicine alternatives. I believed my cat needed to be put to sleep immediately and I was having a tough time letting go. Rose's gentle healing techniques added months to my cat’s life and eased his transition. I was so amazed at her results I enrolled in her Reiki classes and have been using Reiki as a veterinarian ever since. Its’ healing ability continues to amaze me every day. I have added the skill of animal communication which was not possible for me without the grounding of Reiki. I will always thank Rose for her contributions to my veterinary practice, my wonderful companion, and my life."

—Teri Byrd, DVM, Vashon Island, WA









Reiki and Life Changes


"Reiki changed my life. It has helped to empower me and to realize the potential for healing we all have. Rose’s warmth, serenity and sincerity were, and are, what comforted me about my decision to become a Reiki practitioner throughout the training and still. I have been practicing as a Reiki level II for two years. Rose is still there for me when I have questions. As my Reiki Master, she will usher me into a Mastership role myself when it is time. My confidence and respect are strong and I thank the universe for allowing me to find Reiki through Rose."

—J Linn Black Henline, LMP, SAMP, Reiki jgroves.abmp.com









Reiki Level I and II


"I was asked to accompany a friend to a Level I Reiki class given by Rose last year. It turned out to be a pivotal point in my life. Not only did I learn what impressive power Reiki has in healing (my laryngitis was gone that night), the warmth and calming effects are profound. As a student you can feel the energy flow through your hands to the recipient, and it gives you such a sense of peace and clarity. I completed Level I and II, have used it for several friends and family, and they keep returning for additional sessions.

Rose's class is complete, thoughtfully directed, and I feel was truly a gift at this time in my life. Reiki is definitely a benefit in spiritual/health care."

—K. Hunko, Washington









Reiki II


"I REALLY enjoyed Reiki II. There seems to be an endless supply of 'beings' or events that I can send the Reiki to, especially the emotional healing aspect. Going from not knowing Reiki at all, to Reiki I was amazing, going from Reiki I to Reiki II was an even bigger 'WOW,' an even bigger jump! Thank you for sharing what you know and for reminding us that there is a natural connection between all beings (including the earth and universe) at a very base level. A very cool experience indeed!"

—C.J.S., WA









The Grateful Pug


"A coworker has a young, 20-ish daughter with a dog (breed, Pug). Like most young people she is living on a shoestring. We dropped by her apartment to drop off some things and I noticed her Pug was dragging his back legs and seemed very lethargic. I asked her how long he had been like this? She answered a couple days and she was taking him into the vets that weekend.

"I asked her if she wanted me to try Reiki on him? "She answered, 'Yes, please, anything that might help him.'

"I sat on the sofa and asked the dog's permission to work on him. He sat down in front of me and looked up at me with those buggy little eyes of his.

"My coworker and her daughter sat in the chairs across from me. I thought I would be nervous, but as soon as I put my hands on this little creature I forgot they were in the same room.

"I started at his head and worked my way down to his bottom. I could feel heat around his hips and as soon as I found the heat he looked at me. I knew I had found the right spot. I placed my hands on him and left them there for 3 minutes.

"My coworker and her daughter kept saying...'He never sits that still. He has never sat that long for anyone'

"This little guy moved around so I hit the right spots. Every time he would move I would leave my hands in place again for 3 minutes. I was in the shape of a pretzel by the time he moved away. He smartly marched right into the kitchen to eat, which he had not done for almost two days prior to the Reiki. He then ran back into the living room and bounced up on his owners lap and my coworkers lap. He then came and sat in front of me and just looked up at me.

"I announced out loud to him...'You are welcome, my friend.'

"My coworker just stared at me, but the daughter had tears in her eyes and came and gave me a big hug and said, 'Thank you.'

“That was really nice. I felt good inside and pumped up for the rest of the night. This had been my first Reiki healing on an animal and to do it in front of a coworker and her family and to see the results immediately like that. Well, you could not have wiped the smile off my face if you had tried. It spread from ear to ear.

"As I write this testimony it has been over a month and half and my coworker daily tells me how well he is doing. Her daughter tells everyone that will listen about Reiki. I am proud, inside and out that I could help and I hope at least one person that hears her story will think about it and follow up with Reiki training.”

—M. Moore, Seattle, Reiki Level I









Reiki Healing: Safe for Giver & Receiver


"Reiki has given me the necessary tools to perform the energy healing I had been attempting on my own for many years, and the distance healing my mother taught me years ago.

"Prior to learning Reiki, if I were to do 'energy work' on say, a friend’s broken thumb, I would feel drained, and sometimes take on a 'mimic pain' in my own thumb! With Reiki, I feel GREAT, and know how to disperse heavy energy without absorbing it myself.

"I knew the second I saw Rose’s Reiki class advertised (in a local publication for pet lovers) that I HAD to be in that class. Animals have always been a very important part of my life, and she was the first person I had ever come across that focused on animals as well as humans.

"I now use Reiki in my everyday life: at work with stressed out animals coming to be groomed, with friends suffering from minor aches and pains, and other situations such as relief for a cat that had been scratching and chewing himself raw for months prior to the Reiki session (veterinary medicine had been ineffective in this case).

"I’ve also found that (even though I’ve yet to take an animal communication class) I have been able to better communicate with my non-human friends much better than I could prior to having Reiki in my life.

"Through Reiki I have met many amazing people, including Rose who is an extraordinary individual who has inspired me greatly in my work with animals."

—Christiane Mikles, Reiki II, Seattle, WA









Reiki for Dogs and People


"I have attended both Level I and Level II Reiki classes taught by Rose. Both classes were very organized, fun and enlightening. The skills I learned could be immediately applied to my everyday life and to those beings around me, both human and animal.

"I have been able to help calm down and reduce the stress for dogs that were emotionally upset when their owners were away for an extended period of time. Also, there have been a few occasions when a dog strained a muscle or ligament while running in the yard and have applied Reiki to their point of pain and then literally watched them bounce right back up and continue playing without limping. Another dog with some sort of digestive problem, calmed right down and went back to sleep after a 15 minute session, where under different circumstances without knowing Reiki, I would have rushed them to the vet at 3:00 a.m.

"There have been many, many other cases where I’ve applied Reiki to my friends, family and myself right after an injury and in ALL cases the pain seemed to disappear immediately, there was either minimal or no bruising at the site and the injury healed very quickly.

"Rose has been very supportive after each class by being available to answer questions and to provide gentle reminders as to the different situations where Reiki can be applied. I highly recommend her classes to everyone as Reiki is a very powerful and valuable skill that you can not only share with your loved ones and friends but you can incorporate into your everyday lives and/or profession."

—Jere Hutchison









Reiki and Massage


“As a student of massage I took Level I Reiki because I knew it would make me a better healer…To my surprise, Reiki provides more than healing energy running through my hands, it also heightened the feelings in my fingertips. I can feel more when I am working on my clients, and my hands seem to be drawn to the spots that need help. I have become a lot more confident in my work as well!

"I would recommend Reiki training and attunement to anyone who wishes to help others and themselves. My daughter asks me to do Reiki on her all the time now. She had a bit of an earache and it has not progressed to the usual ear infection.

"I am very thankful that I can use this incredible energy to benefit myself, my daughter and my clients. Thank you, Rose.”

— J., Level I Student, Seattle









Reiki in the Healing Practice


"I took Reiki to heal myself and others. I felt that it would enhance the healing work that I was already doing, and it has changed my life in many ways. I have become a full time massage and energy therapist and Reiki is the foundation that I have built this on.

"My Reiki classes were very enjoyable. The best part of the classes was being able to work not only with people, but also with plants and animals.

"I would recommend Reiki training to everyone!"

—Faith Kennedy, RMT, LMT, CPP, Uxbridge, MA









Reiki and Horses


“I worked on a horse (who) had a tender area…She flinched when I touched it even a little and gave me the hairy eyeball (so to speak). So I did some Reiki on the area for a few minutes and after that she wasn't the least bit tender. She dropped her weight into my hands while I worked and went from being really nervous about me being near the area to totally relaxing into it.”

— P., Level I Student, Seattle









Benefits of Reiki Level I


How does Reiki benefit you in daily life?

"I set my alarm for an hour early and between snooze's I do Reiki on myself. I have noticed the difference in the way animals greet me on my walks. They come up to me and sit down in front of me, I reach down and run my hands over them...cats and dogs...I have heard owners say to me 'she has never done that before!'...or 'well, I wonder what that was all about?'....in my mind I thank them and they or I continue on our walks."

How does it benefit others?

"My coworkers have noticed a difference in my way of handling things at work. I have done Reiki on coworkers and they have told every person in the office about the hands-on I can do. Out of a five-day work week I do at least two Reiki treatments on coworkers. One coworker ask me today...'Marjie, could you do your Reiki on my shoulder?'…kind of kewl…"

How did your life change after Reiki training?

"My aunt taught me to hands-on heal by taking the pain and channeling it out. She warned me to be careful who I did this for and whom I told about it. It was not a thing you did not so many years ago. When she died of heart failure in 1998; I could not help her. I know I brought her peace in her final minutes, but I could not take it away. It was her time and I could not change that. It feels so good to be able to help people and to talk openly about doing it. I seem to be able to feel the trouble spots on the body through heat coming into my hands. By concentrating on these spots I am able to bring healing or easing of their pain."

What did you really enjoy about the class? Was it fun?

"I was too nervous at my Level I class for it to be fun. The Reiki Share once a month has been fun. I have met the most interesting people from all walks of life...each one has enriched my life so much. I really enjoy the classes because it is people of the same mind sharing what is important to them and to me."

Why would you recommend Reiki training for everyone/anyone?

"For the simple joy of knowing that you can help yourself and other people.

"To bring that peace into their lives is so enriching."

—M. Moore, Seattle, WA
