Registered Nurse since 1978. Certified Holistic Nurse and Cerified Healing Touch Practitioner. Founding member Healing Touch St. Louis. Currently Florida resident but travel frequently to St. Louis. Remote healing and holistic nursing consulting available.

First Healing Touch workshop training was December 1994 the weekend after a  self-induced, 'stress-induced health and healing crisis'. Healing Touch was instrumental in my recovery along with many complemetary therapies. Through this life changing experience I realized we can access a multitude of inner and outer resources to help us on our healing path. I was inspired to study and become a certified holistic nurse. 

I ow started a business in St. Louis in 1996 called Healing Resources and over the years assisted many in reaching their healing and health care goals.

I love to educate and advocate and am always honored to be at someone's side whether during an acute health care crisis, for wellness, end of life or on a transformational  journey. 

I do energy work that goes deep into every cell of your body, balancing your chakras and cleansing your aura for deep spiritual healing. If there are messages that come up during the session, I will share those with you. This session is a powerful way to explore a deeper sense of peace within your own body. I am a light-body energy worker that helps you center, ground, and really know who you are on a deep soul level. Physical issues can also be addressed.

I offer Healing Touch, Reiki and other energy therapies to help women and animals relax, balance and heal, so they can live healthier, happier lives. I also offer distance sessions for those not in the Indianapolis area. Please visit www.LisaSegall.com for lots more information. Cheers to a healthy, happy life!
