The Health Collective
Meet Our Team of Experts
Escapada is a collective of practitioners, therapists and wellbeing experts, each bringing their own experience, expertise and way of working to our space.
While we each have our own specialisms, we share the same belief: that wellbeing is never one-size-fits-all.
Our approach is about looking at the whole person — bringing together modern health knowledge with the wisdom of more traditional practices to create care that feels personal, thoughtful and connected.
From our clinic practitioners and skin experts to our movement teachers and Experts in Residence, our team is here to support you at different points in your wellbeing journey.

Meet Our Experts in Residence
We’re delighted to have these practitioners as part of the Escapada team as our Experts in Residence.

Our Experts are carefully chosen for the perspective they bring and the way their work complements our own. Together, we create a more connected, considered approach to wellbeing — bringing different areas of expertise together under one roof.

Coaching gives you space to stop, feel safe, and actually hear yourself. It’s time focused on you, because you matter. Becky blends coaching frameworks, mentoring insight, leadership experience and intuition to support you in moving forward with confidence.
