THE KARMA DIFFERENCE
Why clients choose
The Karma Mama
Anyone can offer you a slot. Your Karma Mama practitioner composes you a treatment, to a standard our founder spent 29 years perfecting. Built for the woman who looks after everyone else, and hasn't had an hour to herself since spring. Every treatment is delivered to your own home, across London and Kent.



Hands that have listened
for 29 years
From an award-winning practice inside the BBC to living rooms across London and Kent, 29 years of listening hands built this company. Experience isn't something we claim. It's something you feel inside the first minute.



You're a body, a mind and a story, never a booking
Every session is composed from scratch: physical, mental, emotional. What your Tuesday needs is not what your Friday needs, and your treatment will now the difference.



Four hours of healing before your healing
Lisa practises her own reiki and meditation daily, and again before every client she sees. Twenty-nine years in, she still arrives grounded before she lays a hand on anyone. You wouldn't pour from a clouded glass.
THE KARMA METHOD
Every treatment,
designed specifically for your needs
Twenty-nine years of practice, refined into a method every Karma Mama Practitioner follows, in your own home, across London and Kent.
01
Listen
Before we arrive, we ask. Your body, your week, your mood. The treatment starts with the conversation.
02
Prepare
Your practitioner arrives energy-clear. Reiki and meditation are a daily practice here, kept before every client without exception.
03
Compose
No fixed routines. Your session is built from what you told us and what our hands find: physical, mental, emotional.
04
Continue
Aftercare guidance and, if you wish, a plan — because the deepest change comes from wellness made regular.
OUR SIGNATURE ○ AS NAMED BY WOMEN'S HEALTH

Retreats used to mean airports, strangers and relaxing to someone else's timetable. We ended that.

By evening, we vanish. The calm stays.

Tailor-made programme for 1-to-1s, families, friends or colleagues.

Yoga, pranayama, sound bath, meditation, massage & reiki

Light Ayurvedic vegetarian lunch included on retreat days
