Healing with Sam - Animal Massage and Pet Reiki Therapy - Nationwide
Healing with Sam provides healing services for both animals and people. These services include Reiki, distance energy work, animal massage, and acupressure for animals and energy work for their people. The goal for these services is to encourage people and animals to work with their energetic body and help improve their quality of life.
Sam is a certified Veterinary Nurse with over 5 years experience in alternative veterinary medicine. She is a certified Small Animal Massage Practitioner and Reiki Master. She is also trained in acupressure, Tui Na and cranial sacral work for animals.
Sam studied at the Mount Ida College Veterinary Technician Program where she received her Bachelors of Science and shortly after passed her boards exam to become a Certified Veterinary Nurse.
While in school Sam also trained to become a Reiki master to have both an education in veterinary sciences and the metaphysical. She believes it is important to have both educational backgrounds and when combined great things can be achieved for our beloved animals and our own well beings. She believes everyone and everything is made up of energy and Reiki gives us the ability to harness that healing energy and give it to a recipient for their highest good and release what no longer serves us.

About Samantha Hankey — Certified Animal Reiki Healer in Lexington, MA
Samantha is a certified animal reiki healer based in Lexington, MA, offering virtual sessions to pet parents and their animals nationwide. With a personalized, animal-led approach to every session, Samantha works with cats, dogs, horses, birds, and other animal companions — helping them find calm, balance, and relief from the physical and emotional challenges that affect their quality of life. Whether your pet is anxious, aging, recovering from illness, or simply out of balance, Samantha brings genuine care and certified expertise to every session.
The best animal reiki practitioners don't just offer energy work — they take time to understand your pet's full history, temperament, and specific needs before a session begins. Samantha brings that philosophy to every booking, working with you to ensure each session is as effective and comfortable as possible for your animal companion.
What Samantha Can Help With
Samantha works with pets across a wide range of physical and emotional challenges. Anxiety, fearfulness, and stress-related behaviors are among the most common reasons pet parents seek out a certified healer — and gentle energy work can produce meaningful, lasting calm even in highly reactive or emotionally overwhelmed animals. For aging pets managing chronic pain, reduced vitality, or the challenges of illness, reiki offers a non-invasive way to support comfort and quality of life alongside traditional veterinary care.
Samantha also works with rescue animals and recently rehomed pets — helping them release emotional imprints from difficult past experiences and settle more fully into their new environment. For pets recovering from surgery or injury, reiki can complement the rehabilitation process by supporting the body's natural healing response and reducing stress during recovery. And for families navigating end-of-life transitions, Samantha provides gentle, compassionate support — offering comfort and energetic balance for both the animal and the people who love them.

Every session is personalized and animal-led — tailored to your pet's unique needs, comfort level, and specific challenges rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach. Virtual sessions are available to pet parents across the US, meaning your animal companion receives healing from the comfort and familiarity of home regardless of where you're located. Samantha is based in Lexington, MA and serves pet parents nationwide through PetWorks.
