the BiG TOE story
the BiG TOE philosophy
Hello! My name is Kathryn and I all my sessions are designed uniquely for you. I make sure you have a comfortable and supportive space where you can feel completely at ease. Each holistic session offers a powerful combination of relaxation and restoration, promoting your overall physical and emotional wellbeing. Your body has its own natural healing potential and I can help unlock this one session at a time.
My story
My journey into holistic wellness began in 2015 as a Reflexologist. After a decade of practice, I found my true passion: supporting women through the vital transitions of fertility, menopause, and hormonal health. However, I began to see a recurring theme—much of the physical tension my clients carried was deeply rooted in unspoken stress.
In 2025, I started additional training in Reiki and Emotional Intelligence Coaching to bridge the gap between the physical and the emotional. I’m so excited to welcome you into this new chapter, where I treat the mind, body, and spirit.
Women's health specialist
My passion is women’s health and helping women address their wellness holistically. Balancing hormones through reflexology is my super power for regulating cycles, fertility, pregnancy and the menopause. I believe women should feel in control of their health and wellbeing and I work to help you thrive and not just survive during these physical and emotional changes.
Men's health
Reflexology or Reiki are wonderful, relaxing non-invasive treatments for men of all ages whether you are looking to de-stress, relieve tension, improve sleep, reduce anxiety, boost mood or help with some pain relief. I love working with couples exploring their fertility options and reflexology has had great success in helping increase male morphology. Click here for further information

Wellbeing
We're BiG about wellbeing

Easy wins to feeling good:
Our feel good chemicals:
Balancing your D.O.S.E. chemicals daily is essential to take control of your biology rather than being a victim of your mood. Proactively triggering these natural chemicals prevents your brain from chasing "cheap" highs like social media scrolling or emotional eating. By consistently boosting these chemicals, you build emotional resilience against anxiety, eliminate modern burnout and unlock an effortless state where productivity feels natural instead of forced.
Becoming capable
Dopamine is your brain’s ultimate driver for motivation and focus. When your dopamine levels are healthy, you feel driven, focused and completely capable of tackling whatever the day throws at you. The easiest way to get your daily dose without burning out is to break your largest goals into tiny, bite-sized tasks. By checking off a quick micro-win early in the morning, like making your bed, splashing your face with cold water or writing down a three-item to-do list, you trigger an instant reward loop that fuels your momentum for the rest of the day.
Feeling connected
Finding contentment
Oxytocin is the "bonding molecule" that melts away stress and replaces it with a deep sense of belonging. When it flows, you feel safe, loved and profoundly connected to the world around you. To easily weave oxytocin into a busy schedule, focus on micro-moments of genuine human interaction. Send a quick, unexpected text to a friend telling them why you appreciate them, think of 3 things you're grateful for, celebrate your achievements or give a loved one a long, meaningful hug. These tiny acts instantly lower your cortisol and lift your mood.
Finding contentment
Finding contentment
Finding contentment
Serotonin acts as your mind's emotional anchor, leaving you feeling calm, stable, and completely content with where you are. When serotonin is low, anxiety and loneliness tend to creep in. The absolute simplest, science-backed way to boost it daily is to step outside into natural morning sunlight for 10 to 15 minutes. This rapid exposure sets your circadian rhythm, regulates your sleep cycle and establishes a bright, peaceful baseline for your mood before your workday even begins.
Awakening Cheer
Finding contentment
Awakening Cheer
Endorphins are your body’s natural pain relievers and stress busters, delivering a wave of vibrant cheer and physical euphoria. You don’t need to spend hours at the gym to unlock them; endorphins respond beautifully to short, intense bursts of movement or joy. You can easily trigger an endorphin release by doing 60 seconds of star jumps between meetings, putting on a favourite track for a quick living room dance break, taking ten minutes to stretch out physical tension, or simply laughing or singing out loud.
