Lithotherapy for animals, its benefits, recommended stones and precautions to take
What is lithotherapy for animals?
Lithotherapy is a gentle and natural healing method that uses the energy of stones to rebalance the body and mind. While widely used for humans, it is also suitable for pets such as dogs, cats, horses, and other small animals (NACs). Animal lithotherapy is based on the same energetic principle: each stone emits a vibration that can positively affect the animal's physical, emotional, and behavioral well-being.
Why use lithotherapy for your pet?
Animals, sensitive to the energies that surround them, often respond very well to energy treatments. Lithotherapy can:
-
Calming a stressed or anxious animal
-
Support for behavioral disorders (fear, aggression, excessive barking, etc.)
-
Supporting a sick or aging animal
-
Help with recovery after surgery or emotional shock
-
Strengthening the bond between animals and their humans
It never replaces veterinary monitoring, but it can complement traditional care in a holistic way.
Which stones should I choose for my pet?
The choice of stones in lithotherapy depends on the specific needs of your companion. Here are some commonly used examples:
Amethyst is a calming stone, calming nervous or hyperactive animals. It is useful in cases of stress, fear, or separation.
Tiger's Eye protects against negative energies and restores confidence to fearful animals.
Sodalite is ideal for anxious or solitary animals, it promotes inner calm and emotional stability.
Carnelian is stimulating, it helps tired or convalescent animals to regain their energy.
Rose quartz is a stone of gentleness and love, it is particularly suitable for animals that have suffered abandonment or trauma.
How to use stones with animals?
Worn on the collar or harness or attached to a collar (be careful of the weight), they allow a gentle and constant diffusion of their benefits.
Placed in the environment, in the basket or near the resting place, they are effective while your pet sleeps. However, be careful of accidental ingestion.
In energy healing sessions, the animal therapist can use stones as part of a healing or energy rebalancing session.
