Treatments Team

  • Ailbhe Murphy

    Ailbhe Murphy

    Ailbhe is a biodynamic craniosacral therapist (CSTA registered) with a background in environmental science, dance and somatic practice. Raised in a yogic household, she blends body-mind awareness with the biopsychosocial model of health, exploring how relationships with self, others and place shape how we feel. Her work uses anatomically specific, light touch to support the nervous system, ease pain, and restore safety in the body—especially helpful for anxiety, PTSD, burnout, chronic stress, and recovery from injury.

  • Harriet Paintin

    Harriet is a warm, intuitive massage therapist whose diverse background deeply informs her nurturing approach to bodywork. She gained her Level 3 in Holistic Massage, and has since gone on to complete certifications in Deep Tissue & Advanced Massage Techniques, Manual Lymphatic Drainage, and Pregnancy/Postnatal Massage. Her treatments are rooted in slow, flowing strokes and deep, responsive pressure, designed to ease tension, regulate the nervous system, and restore a sense of balance.

  • Holly Hopkins

    Holly, based in East London, is a registered craniosacral therapist and tutor with the College of Cranio-Sacral Therapy. We are not seeking, we are helping you to soften your system so that you can connect with your innate healing abilities and find your inner vitality. Holly is also a breathwork facilitator, trained yoga instructor, and has an interest in many forms of energy work. She grounds this work with a strong background in science, holding a PhD in neuroscience, and worked in medical education for almost a decade.

  • Kate McQuilken

    Somatic Therapy with Kate offers a gentle, trauma-informed path to reconnect with your body’s wisdom. Through awareness, movement, and nervous system regulation, Kate helps you release stored tension, stress, and emotion. Together, you create a safe space to soften protective patterns, restore balance, and rediscover a sense of safety, ease, and connection within yourself.
