Client Love Ōhaupō
Breathe Reiki Room 

Client Love Ōhaupō is a collection of kind words and experiences from just a small handful of the beautiful souls I have had the privilege to support. Each story is a reminder of the calm, clarity, and healing that Usui Reiki creates. May these reflections give you a glimpse of what’s possible when you step into this sacred space.

Every healing journey is unique, yet each carries the same thread, a return to balance, peace, and self-connection. Usui Reiki and Access Bars both have their unique ways of touching people exactly where they need it most, often in ways words cannot fully capture. Here you’ll find heartfelt stories from those who have experienced Reiki and Bars at Breathe Reiki Room. May their reflections give you a sense of the calm and clarity.

Claire G.   Distant Reiki Client - London, UK   "I found Karina from the other side of the world through a friend of a friend lol and I'm so glad I did. I'll be honest I had zero idea how this could work across twelve time zones, but I was desperate to find something to reduce my stress levels. During the session I felt this wave of warmth move through my chest that stopped me in my tracks. I lay there thinking what the heck just happened. Karina followed up with the most thoughtful message about what she'd noticed. It felt personal. I've already recommended her to two friends here."

Lauren H.   Cambridge   "I booked a session with Karina on a whim after a really hard few weeks and honestly it was one of the best decisions I've made for myself in a long time. The space she holds is so peaceful, no pressure, no weirdness. I left feeling amazing"

Nikki P.   Raglan   "I've been carrying anxiety for so long it started to feel normal. After my Access Bars session with Karina I realised that this is what calm actually feels like. She has this rare combination of clinical knowledge and genuine heart that makes you feel completely safe. I cried a little 🥲 Highly, highly recommend."

Rachel C.   Hamilton   "What I love about Karina is that she never made me feel like I needed to understand everything to receive the benefit. I'm not someone who knows much about energy work, but I walked out feeling different."

Jo W.    Distant Reiki Client - Christchurch   "I was curious about distance Reiki but wasn't sure it could feel as powerful as in-person. I was wrong! Karina held the most incredible space, even from afar I could feel a warmth and presence that was so real. Her nursing background gives her such a grounded, trustworthy energy. Absolutely beautiful experience."

Dana M.   Distant Reiki Client - Vancouver, Canada   "I met Karina a couple of years ago, so I knew how to get in contact with her. I lay down at the agreed time not knowing what to expect, and within minutes felt this deep warmth. I've had in-person Reiki before, but this was honestly just as powerful. The distance means nothing."

Mel T.   Hamilton   "I had my first Access Bars session with Karina so did not know what to expect. By the end the constant chatter had quietened. Karina is so warm and made me feel completely at ease the whole time. Already booked my next one."

Sarah A.  Te Awamutu   "I came to Karina feeling completely burnt out and a little sceptical. I left feeling like something had been quietly put back in place. I don't have fancy words for it. I slept the deepest I have in months that night. If you're on the fence, just go."

Angie L.    Hamilton   "Thank you for our Reiki session for my torn tendon/bursitis. After weeks of pain, restricted movement and stiffness, the next day I had less pain and more mobility! For the first time since my injury, I was able to lift my arm off the bed! I was truly quite blown away, even though I believe in Reiki! Thank you for your beautiful space and your energy for healing Karina.” 🙏🏻

Emma S.   Ōhaupō   “Walking into Karina’s space felt safe. During my first session, a quiet calm settled over me, I could almost feel years of stress melting away. I left feeling peaceful.”

Liam B.    Te Awamutu, Waikato   “I had no idea what to expect, but Karina guided me with clarity. The session felt like a reset for my body. For days afterward, my sleep improved. Karina is a gifted healer.”

Sophie R.   Raglan, Waikato  “Reiki with Karina is more than a treatment, it’s an experience of being truly seen. Her intuition is incredible, and her touch is so nurturing. I felt deeply restored."

Anika P.   Distant Reiki Client  “I live outside Waikato, but distance Reiki with Karina was just as powerful. I felt waves of warmth as if she was right beside me. Afterwards, I felt lighter and calmer.”

Hayden M.   Ōhaupō   "I felt anxious before the session but at the end felt clearer. Reiki has become a part of my self-care routine thanks to her.”
