✨ Transformation through Japanese Reiki 🌿
At Holistic Rising, we practise a gentle, authentic form of Reiki that focuses on intuitive hand placement and energy flow — not heavy use of symbols. It’s pure, simple, and deeply restorative.

Recently, a client came to us feeling her peace slipping away under stress. Through her session, we uncovered a long-held saviour complex — a childhood programme of “saving others = worthy” that led her to neglect her own needs. Constantly caring for others, she forgot to care for herself.

After her Japanese Reiki healing, she found calm, clarity and self-love. Together, we built new self-care routines, mindful eating guidance and gentle steps to break old patterns — allowing her to finally step into her true self. 💫

✨ Japanese Reiki can help with:
• Stress, anxiety & emotional fatigue
• Sleep & energy balance
• Releasing trauma & emotional blocks
• Aches linked to tension or imbalance

Unique to Japanese Reiki — we let energy lead through mindful touch, not symbols. It’s transformation through stillness.

📍 Available at our three healing clinics:
• Wanstead: 15 High Street, E11 2AA
• South Woodford: 9 Shrubberies, E18
• Romford (Essex): 6 Hog Hill Road, RM5

✨ Come as you are — we’ll walk with you back to your peace.

🌬️ Trauma Release Treatments at Holistic Rising 🌿

At Holistic Rising, we understand that trauma isn’t just in the mind — it’s held in the body, the breath, and the energy field.
Our Trauma Release Treatments use conscious breathwork and intuitive energy guidance to help you release what’s been stored and restore balance. Energy healing is integrated throughout every session. Breath bridges the physical and energetic.

• Trauma Release: The foundation — breath-led Thai and Raynor bodywork to unlock tension and release stored emotion.
• Trauma Healing of Two: + Energy Healing — combines deep bodywork with energetic alignment for profound release and restored flow.
• Trauma Healing of Three: + Ayurveda — Ayurvedic oils absorbed through the skin neutralise acidity, easing intensity and supporting the body’s balance and nervous system.
• Trauma Healing of Four: + Extraction (Wet Cupping) — removes dense, stagnant trauma too thick for the lymphatic system to clear. When emotion solidifies over time, it can encapsulate within mucus, fat, or mild calcification; extraction helps clear this once the trauma has been released through bodywork and breath.
• Trauma Healing of Five: The complete fusion — Trauma Release, Energy Healing, Ayurveda, Yogic Healing, and Heat Therapy (with extraction if needed) for full renewal and integration.

Benefits
• Releases trauma and tension
• Regulates the nervous system
• Clears energetic blockages
• Supports inflammatory and chronic conditions
• Restores clarity, vitality, and peace
Clients often describe feeling “lighter,” “calmer,” and “more connected.”

💆🏽‍♀️ Freeing the Hips, Healing the Body — Releasing Sciatic Tension from the Root 🌿

At Holistic Rising, our sports massage for sciatic relief focuses on more than just easing pain — it restores flow, freedom, and alignment through the hips and glutes.

Sciatic-like symptoms often come from deep tension in the glutes, tightness in the lower back, and rigidity through the hips and hamstrings. During this treatment, we release tension across these areas to improve hip mobility and restore natural movement. When the hips move freely, the gluteal muscles can activate and relax with ease as you walk, run, or cycle — stopping them from tightening again.

The glutes are where we often store stress. They hold on to adrenaline, and when life feels heavy, the nervous system in this area fires up, leaving the muscles tight and fatigued. A lack of hip mobility adds to this rigidity, and a weak core can force the glutes to overwork as they hold the body upright.

On a deeper level, the hips are emotional storage centres — where we carry unspoken weight, control, and even the need to hold others’ pain. Many of us store what we try to fix — the need to save, to carry, to hold. But true healing begins with self-care, self-mobility, and daily surrender.

When we release the hips, we release what isn’t ours to carry. The body softens, the energy flows, and movement becomes fluid again.

By embracing this new way of being — one rooted in presence and compassion — we no longer give from exhaustion or rigidity. We inspire others through our own transformation. We become living examples of freedom, of balance, of peace in motion.

This is more than massage. It is a return to flow — within the body, the mind, and the heart. 🌿✨

This treatment works by profoundly freeing tension held in the muscles of the face and jaw – tension that, through the fascia lines, connects deep into the abdominal area and pelvic floor.

By releasing these patterns, we can ease issues such as TMJ, frequent urination, pelvic tightness, and support sexual health, while highlighting the powerful energetic connection between jaw and abdominal health.

When the fascia between the jaw and pelvic floor is burdened by trauma and left unreleased, it can contribute to bloating, IBS, and digestive discomfort. As the fascia softens and releases, the lungs are able to expand more fully, enhancing oxygen intake through abdominal breathing, which forms part of the treatment.

This deeply restorative work also promotes clearer hearing and vision, reduces vertigo, and nurtures the senses by unblocking and detoxifying the lymphatic system.

It can further help relieve headaches, migraines, and neck discomfort, while improving focus, mental clarity, and reaction time. The treatment also supports hair growth by rebalancing scalp acidity.

By opening the energetic flow around the third eye and throat chakras, this healing work creates a deeper sense of intuitive alignment, self-expression, and inner truth. At Holistic Rising, we emphasise expanding conscious awareness to support long-lasting results and an enhanced sense of self-care.

When my son Diego Robinson and I first dreamed up Holistic Rising, it was just a vision — a spark born from our shared passion to help people heal, grow, and reconnect with selves. We had no idea how many challenges we’d face or how much we’d grow along the way.

Starting a business is never easy. It tests your patience, resilience, courage and belief in your purpose. But those challenges bring incredible freedom — the freedom to create something aligned with your values, to grow as a person, and to define success on your own terms.

I’ve learnt that the real goal isn’t meeting others’ expectations — it’s meeting your own self-aligned ones. And when you do, you become a source of motivation not just for yourself, but for your team, your clients, and everyone around you.

Leadership, for me, is about inspiring creativity, seeing things through an artistic lens, and building real communication and connection — because connection is at the heart of healing. 💫

I’m so proud of Diego, who’s gone on to create, .sportstherapy continuing this mission of healing in his own way. Watching him grow is one of my greatest joys. ❤️

From the bottom of my heart, thank you — to our clients for your trust, your beautiful words, and your journeys; to our family, friends, and supporters for lifting us up; and to our incredible team for believing in this dream.

We wouldn’t be here without you. Every milestone, every moment of healing, every transformation — it’s all because of you.

Thank you, I love you all. 💖
