Reflexology
FINDING YOUR FEET
The Science Behind the Treatment
Every part of the body has a reflex point on the feet and hands. The right foot represents the right side of the body and the left foot the left side, and our feet have hundreds of thousands of nerve endings.
The nerve that the pressure is applied to relays this stimulus to the corresponding area of the body. When a blockage is found, it can be felt as a popping or crunching sensation to the therapist. It may feel tender to the recipient.
Reflexology can help to break deposits down and the residue is removed by the blood circulation and the lymphatic system. Once this has been achieved, the corresponding body part will be in a much better place to be able to heal itself.
In traditional Chinese Medicine, it is believed that ch’i (energy) circulates along 12 meridian pathways within the body. The 6 meridians which penetrate the major organs are found in the feet. Reflexology helps to clear the blockage along the meridians and encourages ch’i to flow without interruption.

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.
