Free Animal Healing Session

Type of Healing Offered
We help facilitate healing so that the animal can help to heal itself. Ultimately, it is their decision. We can provide help for your animal in various ways:

  • We can help you take a look at your animal’s nutrition as often that can be the cause or contributing factor to health and behavioral issues. To learn about muscle testing for animals, please click here.
  • This type of session is sometimes called a reiki or healing share. Energy work such as reiki can be offered. To learn more about the reiki offered in a free animal healing session, click here.
  • Please note that holistic animal care is never a replacement for proper veterinary care.
  • If your animal wishes to tell us anything during the session, we will share this information with you. Click here to learn more about animal communication.
  •  Who Can Come
  • You may bring your pet of any kind for a healing session. Animals with contagious illnesses should not come. You can bring a photo of them instead.
  • In order to spend time with everyone that comes, please only bring one animal per person.
  • If you pet is unable to make it, bring us a photo and we can offer a distance consultation.
  • All healers are welcome to come assist us, too.
  •  What to Expect with Your Animal
    Reiki/energy work, nutrition and communication can have the ability to heal on a body, mind, and spirt level. In other words, on a physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual level. When we offer this service, our intention is for the highest good of the animal. We are just a channel for this ability that is inside each and every one of us. We never know what kind of results will be achieved. It is possible that multiple or life long sessions will be ideal for your animal. If this is the case, it is more beneficial for you to learn how to offer these services to your animal yourself by taking a workshop.
  • You can find out more about holistic animal classes here.
  • If you would like to read about some animals that have been helped at the free animal healing sessions, you can read the testimonials here.
  • To see the wonderful TV news story featuring The Lightfoot Way free animal healing and animals we have helped, see the above video.

  • If you are unable to make it, please contact Allison ASAP at 832-725-6002 to advise her that you will not be there as we sometimes have a waiting list.
