Hello and a warm welcome to Soulful Holistic Therapies. My name is Caroline Baker MAR. I am a fully qualified Reflexologist & Aromatherapist in Botley, Southampton. I offer Foot, Facial & Maternity Reflexology treatments, Aromatherapy, Massage; as well as Indian Head Massage, and Reiki.

​I am incredibly passionate about the use of Holistic Therapies to support our physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well-being.

​My absolute honour is to provide a safe space to let go, switch off and escape the everyday stresses that life can bring, allowing the body and mind to relax and find balance. I first became aware and interested in a more natural approach to health when I had my two children. I found myself seeking natural ways to support them through the usual childhood ailments. However, a real turning point for me was when I went through a particularly turbulent patch in my personal life. This led me on a journey of re-discovering who I am and what was true to me. During this time I discovered the benefits of holistic treatments such as Reflexology and Reiki. This had such a positive impact on my mental and emotional well-being. These therapies helped to keep my stress levels under control and my ability to face challenges much more manageable. With a background in Nursing I felt so intrigued with the power of Reflexology & how our feet correspond with certain parts of the body, that in 2019 I enrolled to train as a Reflexologist myself. I have over 12 years of experience working as a registered nurse within the NHS, my last post as a Clinical Nurse Specialist. This provided me with an incredible insight in to the conditions that people are living with day to day, and also the detriment that stressful, busy lives are having on us and potentially contributing to dis-ease within the body. Over time, I increasingly felt that there was so much more I could be offering to support the health of the patients I was caring for. In January 2022, I took a life changing step, followed my heart and decided that this is exactly how I wanted to be supporting others; healing through healthy and natural alternatives. This turned out to be one of my best decisions in life. Since then I have trained in other therapies including Aromatherapy. I have used essential oils for many years to support my family's physical & emotional well-being, but learning how to use them safely and effectively has been hugely mind blowing. The therapeutic & healing qualities of essential oils are incredible and I love that nature has provided us with this beautiful gift. I am insured and I am a full member of the Association of Reflexologists (AoR), providing reassurance that I am highly trained and continue to maintain professional excellence by developing skills and knowledge. I absolutely love learning and am always looking for ways to advance my practice. I currently offer the following treatments in Botley, Southampton:

Foot Reflexology
Facial Reflexology
Maternity Reflexology
AromaFlex (Reflexology with essential oils)
Aromatherapy Massage
Massage
Indian Head Massage
Reiki

Mobile service available.

🌸 National Fertility Awareness Week 🌸

As we recognise National Fertility Awareness Week, it feels important to pause and acknowledge the many people quietly navigating the challenges of fertility, the stories we often don’t see or hear.

So many people face these struggles quietly. We may not realise what someone is going through. The emotions that come with it not happening, the constant reminders all around, the yearning for something that feels just out of reach.

For some, the path to parenthood comes easily.
For others, it’s a journey filled with longing, endless appointments, financial strain, and an ache in the heart that’s hard to put into words....and that's just scratching the surface.

The hope.
The waiting.
The pressure.

It can take such a toll. 🙏🏼

Through additional training in fertility and reproductive health, I am able to offer more tailored treatments, helping to support natural fertility and work alongside those navigating IVF and assisted conception.

One of the most beautiful aspects of reflexology is the deep sense of relaxation it brings. It invites that precious time to quiet the mind, to rest, and reconnect with yourself amidst all the uncertainty. 🩷

The trust that clients place in me, to share their stories, their fears, their vulnerability and their hopes. It's something I hold with the deepest respect and has been truly eye-opening for me. 🩷🙏🏼

☀️Taking a pause in beautiful Mallorca ☀️

I recently took a short trip to Mallorca. A bit of sunshine, good food, and time to truly switch off.

I did find it super challenging leaving my children for the first time abroad, it went against all my mum instincts. I had such a fear I might not make it back to them 🫣 which isnt my usual way of thinking!!

But once we were there and settled, it turned out to be such a lovely little break to spend some quality time with my wonderful man 💙. Feeling so grateful for the experience and recharged. ✨

✨ Are you feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or running on empty?

✨ Could your nervous system be stuck in fight or flight?

When we’re stressed, our nervous system is in overdrive, keeping us in survival mode. It can show up as a tight chest, restless thoughts, shallow breathing, or that constant sense of tension throughout the whole body. Staying in this state for too long can weaken the immune system, increase the risk of chronic illness, and makes it incredibly hard for the body to heal and restore itself.

What we really need is a chance to slow down, to feel safe and activate the parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest mode). This is when the body can fully relax and repair. 🌿

Reflexology offers a gentle, natural way to guide the nervous system into this calm state. Helping to release tension, ease stress and anxiety, lift mood, and encourage deep, restorative sleep. 💆‍♀️✨

When your nervous system is calm, your whole body can relax, restore, and heal. That’s why I love what I do. Reflexology isn’t just relaxation; it’s a reset for your entire being and where healing can begin. 🌸

Reflexology could be just the reset your body is asking for, helping you to feel more grounded and resilient no matter what life throws at you.

I'd love to welcome you to my treatment space, where you can switch off and give your nervous system the care it deserves 👣🥰

✨ Feeling so grateful for the incredible women I’ve been supporting lately. It’s such an honour to hold space for you all. Here's a little insight:

🤰🏼 A radiant first time mum-to-be preparing for her journey into motherhood
🌸 A client managing endometriosis seeking natural ways to support her body & ease pain
😴 A person seeking more restful sleep
🌺 A client with polycystic o***y syndrome (PCOS) hoping to conceive naturally
💚 A beautiful woman preparing for her next IVF treatment
🌷Support for a loving wife who's husband is terminally ill 🙏🏼
💫Support through peri-menopause
💆🏼‍♀️An exhausted mum giving herself some time to recharge
🌿A loving daughter gifting her elderly mum (in her 90's) a little pamper

I find it such a true privilege to support women. Having faced my own struggles and worked through many challenges, it means so much to hold this space for others. Even if their journey doesn't look the same as mine, and although I’m still very much on my own journey (because the healing never really ends), I feel honoured to walk alongside other women as they navigate theirs. ❤️

What connects us is the weight so many women carry: the responsibilities, the giving, the strength it takes to keep showing up. It warms my heart when a woman chooses herself, because first and foremost we need to give to ourselves. Only then can we truly show up as the parent, partner, daughter, and friend we want to be.

One of the things I love most about this work is really getting to know people. When someone comes for regular treatments I get to walk alongside them over time, building trust and connection and witnessing the true benefits reflexology can bring. Many even become friends, which feels so special. 🥰

Reflexology won’t magically fix or take problems away, but it can be such a powerful support in helping us cope, slow down, and find balance in the fast-paced world we live in. 🌿💫

✨ Supporting Women, At Every Stage ✨

I am deeply passionate about supporting women, wherever you are in your journey. 💕 It’s a true joy to create a safe, nurturing space where you can relax, recharge, and feel your best.

Reflexology and massage are beautiful ways to reconnect with yourself, calm the nervous system, and bring balance in our busy, fast-paced world. 🌿 Everyone deserves that time to pause and reset.

One of the things I enjoy the most is being able to tailor treatments specifically for each person. Many of the women I see really love having a totally unique & individualised treatment that suits their needs on the day. This often involves a combination of reflexology, massage and aromatherapy. I am happy to adapt any treatment so you leave feeling nurtured, restored, and deeply cared for. 🌸

Whilst my treatment list may mention certain conditions or life stages, please know you don’t need to have any of those to benefit. These therapies are for every woman who wants to feel supported, balanced, and more in tune with herself. ✨

(Please note, I cannot claim to diagnose, treat, or cure any condition. My aim is always to promote deep relaxation & ease stress; encouraging the body's natural ability to restore balance and well-being. 💚)

✨ It fills my heart to know how much of a positive impact reflexology can have ✨

Supporting women on their wellbeing journeys is at the core of what I do, and receiving feedback like this like this reminds me why I love this work so much. 💛

Reflexology isn’t just deeply relaxing and restorative, it supports the whole body in such powerful ways.

Knowing it has helped to ease pain and brought comfort makes me so grateful for this beautiful therapy. 🌿

Thank you so much for trusting me with your healing journey, it's such an honour🙏🏼💫

✨ Are you a burnt-out mum? ✨

As much as we love spending time with our children, it can feel overwhelming when we’re still trying to juggle work, daily life, and everything in between. And for many, without a family network or support system around them, it can feel even heavier. 💚

You’re not alone. 💚 So many of us are carrying so much, and it’s okay to admit that it feels heavy sometimes.

This is a gentle reminder for the mums who need a reset. For the women craving peace, calm, and a little you-time.

I’m here for you.
For the mum who needs a reset.
For the woman craving peace, calm, and a moment of you-time.

Because when you pause, breathe, and refill your cup; you get to step back into your life with more energy, presence, and joy. 🌿

✨ This is your reminder: you deserve it ✨

✨ Maternity Reflexology ✨

I recently had the privilege of supporting this absolutely gorgeous mum-to-be during her pregnancy. 💛

Maternity reflexology is honestly one of my favourite treatments to give. There’s something so special about holding space for women at such a transformative time in their lives. Every pregnancy is different, and it’s a real honour to offer a little pocket of calm, comfort and support while their bodies and minds adapt to all the changes that come with preparing for motherhood.

If you know someone who’s expecting, maternity reflexology makes a really thoughtful gift. It’s not just a treatment, it’s the gift of wellbeing, rest, and gentle support at a time when it matters most. 🌿💛

Hey, I’m back 👋

I’ve been a little quiet on here lately. Life’s been full with a mix of personal development, diving deep into some big health revelations, and of course the beautiful chaos that comes with the kids being off school (which I honestly love).

Sometimes, when there’s just too much going on, something has to give, and I’ve unapologetically let this space be that thing for a while.

I really look forward to sharing some of what’s been going on behind the scenes in the coming weeks 😊.

Thank you so much for your continued support, it means more than you know 💛
