Terms & Conditions
Last updated: 1st October 2026
These Terms & Conditions set out the agreement between you (the client) and Rooted Healing. By accessing this website, making contact, or booking a session, you agree to the following terms.
1. About Rooted Healing & Nature of Services
Rooted Healing offers grounded, integrative support through two primary services:
Rooted Reflections – a relational, insight-led talking space for emotional processing, overwhelm, life transitions, and self-exploration.
Rooted Touch Therapy – a non-sexual, professional, consent-based touch practice focused on nurturing connection, regulation, and embodied presence.
Services are intended to support wellbeing, self-awareness, and personal growth.
Rooted Healing does not provide medical, psychological, psychiatric, or counselling services and does not diagnose, treat, or cure any medical or mental health condition.
Sessions are not a substitute for medical care, mental health treatment, or professional advice from a GP, psychologist, psychiatrist, or other regulated healthcare provider.
2. Eligibility
Services are available to adults aged 18 and over.
By booking, you confirm that you are over 18 and capable of giving informed consent.
You must be in a suitable physical and mental state to participate. If you are currently experiencing severe emotional distress or mental health crisis, you are encouraged to seek appropriate clinical support.
