Rebozo Massages
BE SEEN, BE HELD
The Science Behind the Treatment
Hailing from Mexico, the Rebozo massage uses a long woven shawl that plays a vital role in both pregnancy and postpartum care. Traditionally, women in Mexico would treat Rebozo as a method to promote a feeling of safety and care.
This unique form of massaging utilises rhythmic movements to allow your body to naturally soften and slow, gentle rocking motions to allow your nervous system to breathe.
These delicate and repetitive motions aid your body’s relaxation response, and when you’re supported by the rebozo, the treatment generates a warm, comforting sensation as you allow yourself to be nurtured and truly cared for.
What to Expect
-
The session commences with a short conversation about how you may be feeling, and where any areas of tension may be held in the body.
-
I will then invite you to get yourself comfortable and introduce the rebozo cloth.
-
The rebozo will then will be used to create soft rocking motions, so you can slow down and relax.
-
Gentle stretches are then offered to support your body without the use of force.
-
The body can then be wrapped or even held by the rebozo cloth, allowing you to feel safe and supported.
-
Aftercare advice will be offered to you once you are given time to return to the room and rest.

Why Choose Root & Rise?
Because I know what it feels like to lose yourself.
To keep pushing through exhaustion. To feel disconnected from your body. To carry grief, hormonal shifts, stress, burnout, or the invisible weight that midlife can bring. I also know what it feels like to slowly come back to yourself.
Root & Rise is being created as a space where women can finally exhale. A place for deep rest, nervous system support, healing, and reconnection - where you don’t have to explain everything you’re carrying. Here, your body gets to feel safe again.
This is so much more than surface level self care.
It is the deep sigh your body has been craving.

Holly described feeling grounded by the treatments, as if she was receiving a hug, and felt soothed and secured throughout all of her treatments.
