Meet Katie Blake -The Skin Whisperer
Honouring Ancient Wisdom, Supporting Modern Women
I’m Katie - an holistic therapist, energy practitioner, and Gua Sha and Acupressure educator. I support women in releasing emotional tension, easing physical stress, and restoring natural radiance through intuitive, grounded healing practices.
I’m based between Wells and Glastonbury, in Somerset, where I live with my husband and our two talented daughters, in an environment that continually inspires and supports the essence of my work.
My journey into healing began more than 25 years ago, guided by personal health challenges that encouraged me to explore deeper, more intuitive forms of support. What started as a search for my own balance soon became a lifelong calling: to help women reconnect with themselves - emotionally, energetically, and physically.
My Path & Philosophy
Over the years, I’ve trained with leading teachers across the world in holistic health, energetic therapy, and intuitive bodywork. From Gua Sha and acupressure to energy medicine, qigong, crystal work and advanced facial techniques, my approach blends:
emotional wisdom
ancient healing traditions
energy balancing
nervous system support
and gentle, natural techniques
Everything I offer is rooted in one mission: to help you feel calmer, clearer, more connected - and deeply at home in your own body.
I believe that healing happens in layers.
Whether you are working with me 1:1, learning online, or using one of my tools or oils at home, every offering is designed to support your mind, body and energy as one whole system.
When your nervous system softens and your energy flows, your face softens, your body unwinds, and your inner glow returns.
Join the Journey
If you’re ready to reconnect with your inner glow, balance your energy, or explore the healing arts of Gua Sha, acupressure and natural wellbeing, I’d love to guide you. Together, we’ll explore gentle, meaningful rituals that support emotional balance, physical ease and a deeper sense of self.

“Special doesn’t begin to cover what Katie Blake does, and who she is. This is proper healing: far more than just skin deep. Although the skin ends up looking pretty fabulous too! She is in a class of her own”
