She is an active volunteer with a local animal rescue group who decided a few years ago that she wanted to help more. In 2016 and 2017, Cassy took Reiki 1, 2, and Animal Reiki at The Reiki Center. Also in 2017, she went to Virginia to study and become certified in equine and canine massage at Equissage International. Since then, Cassy has made it her goal to inform pet owners of the benefits of massage therapy for their family members, whether horse partner or canine companion.

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide an energetic connection between animals and their human companions; to enhance the quality of life for your pet or animal companion through natural wellness; and provide Animal Reiki training for pet parents and animal health and rescue workers.

Our History

The Animal Reiki Center began in 2008 at The Reiki Center as an extension of the services offered to our human clients.  The division continues to grow through private sessions, partnerships with area rescue agencies, visits to wellness fairs in the community, services and classes offered to promote animal health and wellness. In 2016, additional services were offered and the division was renamed to Animal Wellness Center.
