Sarah Hounsell

Sarah Hounsell is a farrier by trade.  She lives in Oshkosh and has been running her horseshoeing business for the past 21 years.  After an encounter with an animal communicator/Reiki master in 2011 she decided take her Reiki 1 class. The focus was on horses as much as
humans in that first class which has been such a blessing to Sarah's relationships with the horses she works on daily.  A few years later she finished Reiki 2.  As she begins the process of retiring from horseshoeing she plans to complete Reiki Master as well as other
healing modalities.
