Reiki With Karen
Gentle, grounding support for when you feel tired, wired or you need help to calm your nervous system.
“I was having a really tough day, and you helped me reconnect to myself in a way I didn’t even realise I needed. After the session, I slept deeply that night and woke up feeling noticeably clearer and lighter. The fog lifted and I felt empowered. Since then, I’ve found it easier to set boundaries, make decisions and generally feel more positive.”

Hi, Karen Skidmore
I’m an energy, somatic and sound practitioner who works with clients navigating midlife, life transitions and mental overload.
Now in my mid-50s, I’ve reclaimed my pace, my strength and my power, not through pushing but through calming my nervous system, learning how to get out of my head and lead with my body wisdom.
After years of over-functioning, stress and burn out, I had to choose to create a different rhythm, and Reiki has been integral in bringing my somatic, sound and energy work together.
Today, I offer restorative sessions that blend Reiki, energetic insight and body-based awareness.
“You helped me move from feeling overwhelmed to a state of grounded stillness, with a tangible release of tension and a boost of energy.”
Why Reiki?
Reiki supports your body’s natural ability to rest, release and restore.
It’s an energy healing system that works beneath the surface, calming the nervous system, supporting emotional release, and creating space for the body’s natural healing response.
I bring 20+ years of energy work and embodied wisdom into every session, calmly guiding your system back to balance.
Whether you're holding a lot, over-functioning, or simply need a reset, Reiki will give you gentle energetic support to help you feel calm, balanced and more yourself again.
“I had no idea how deeply I needed the session until I felt the shift.
Afterwards, I slept deeply and woke feeling calm, positive, and surprisingly ready for action. But the real impact came later - an open, heartfelt conversation with my husband about money and the business that we hadn’t been able to have for weeks.
That kind of breakthrough doesn’t come from logic or strategy - it comes from healing. And that’s what your session gave me. I felt so safe, held, and understood. You have an extraordinary gift for tuning in and guiding energy exactly where it’s needed.”
How does Reiki work?
Reiki works with your body’s energy.
In an in-person session, you stay fully clothed, and I use light touch or hands just above the body.
After our initial consultation, I will invite you to lie on the treatment bed, and I channel Reiki to you.
In a distant session, we connect energetically at the start of the sessions over Zoom, then I invite you to find a space to sit or lie down (the choice is yours as long as you are comfortable), and I channel Reiki to you, just as I would in person.
Many people feel warmth, tingling, or deep relaxation.
Some even fall asleep.
We speak again at the end of the session where I’ll share anything that came through, and you’re welcome to reflect or ask questions.
“I’m thrilled with the results so far. The lightness and lack of sluggishness I feel now makes me realise how long I’ve been wading through treacle. I woke up today with no heaviness on my chest, easier breathing, and more clarity.
I’ve also had beautiful client sessions this week where I didn’t feel exhausted afterwards. There’s clearly something in this energy work - my hip is more flexible, my mind is calmer, and I feel more like myself again.”
Where do you see clients?
Both in-person and distant treatments are available.
In-person
Come see me at Luck’s Yard Clinic in Milford, just outside of Godalming, Surrey, where I see clients in-person every Monday afternoon.
Distant
If you prefer to receive treatments from the comfort of your own home, choose the distant option. These sessions are delivered remotely via Zoom (although you don’t need to be in front of your screen during the treatment); there’s no need to travel, you can be in your own bed and no home visits are required.
Pricing
Both options are £65 a session for 45 minutes, which includes an initial consultation and feedback after your treatment.

Every experience is unique. Some people feel warmth, tingling, or gentle waves of energy moving through their body during the Reiki part of this session. Others simply feel deeply relaxed or notice subtle shifts in their mood or clarity afterwards. There’s no right or wrong way to receive Reiki, your body will take what it needs. The most important thing is to create a quiet, comfortable space where you can rest undisturbed and allow yourself to simply be.

Not all. There is no preparation needed nor do you need any special equipment. Just come as you are you are; we have blankets and pillows at the clinic for your comfort.
