Why Held?
Held is more than a name.
It’s the intention behind every treatment, every breath, and every moment within this space.
Held was created from a simple truth:
so many women are exhausted from holding everything together.
Holding stress in their bodies.
Holding emotional weight.
Holding space for others..
This space exists so women can experience the opposite.
To be held — physically, emotionally, and through gentle nervous-system-led care.
At Held, the focus is on creating safety.
Because when the body feels safe, it naturally begins to soften.
Breath deepens.
The nervous system settles.
And healing becomes possible.
Every treatment is intentionally slow, grounding, and supportive. Guided by breath, presence, and respectful touch. You are never rushed, pushed, or expected to be anything other than exactly as you are.
Held is a sanctuary for women who need rest.
For women navigating stress, hormonal changes, pregnancy, or simply the weight of modern life.
Here, you don’t need to explain your exhaustion.
You don’t need to hold yourself together.
You are already held.
About Sophie
• BOY MUMMA • DREAMER • COFFEE LOVER • HOMEBIRD • SHOPPERHOLIC • FOODIE • SPRING GIRL
I’m a mum of two beautiful boys and happily married, living a life that now values presence over pressure. For many years, I lived in a constant state of fight-or-flight, carrying chronic stress without realising how deeply it was affecting my body and mind. Choosing to slow down and learn how to regulate my nervous system became a turning point—one that allowed me to heal, reconnect, and truly come home to myself.
That personal journey sparked a deep calling to support other women on their own paths back to balance. As a mum, I feel a strong desire to savour these early years with my children and to live more gently, intentionally, and fully present.
I’m a country girl who is always up for getting muddy with my boys but also love a spa day or fancy dinner with the girls. I find joy in the little things - coffee dates, countryside views, watching the sun rise, or spending a cosy evening by the fire. These moments remind me that healing often lives in the simplest of spaces.
