Abuelita's Wellbeing: Integrative Wellbeing for Every Journey
We are a purpose-led, integrative wellbeing practice based in Hackney (Hackney Downs Studios) and Islington (Tileyard London Wellness Hub), supporting both private clients and businesses. Every session directly contributes to our mission to provide free therapy for people suffering from PTSD, chronic illnesses, refugee and asylum-seeking women.
We’ve walked through grief, burnout, injury, trauma, chronic illness, and the frustration of feeling unseen by the medical system. But instead of giving up, we turned those experiences into purpose, and built this studio to share what we’ve learned.
Studio Hire
Our spacious room based in Hackney Downs Studios, is a wonderful, unique space. Approximately 50 square meters in size, far from the noisy courtyard, with access to the rooftop, the studio is equipped with everything you'd need for 1-to-1 therapy, workshops, movement classes, group therapies, or wellbeing events.
What Our
Clients Say
Real people, real change. We provide wellbeing for everyone, because self-care should never be a privilege.
I went to Abuelita’s Wellbeing after a stressful time, and I had the most amazing massage. I went in feeling stressed, tense, and with my head all over the place, and walked away joyful, relaxed and myself again. The place, smell, design, and the kindness I have experienced was amazing
- Beatrice
Had an incredible deep tissue massage with Rohan yesterday. Felt extremely comfortable, being my first full body massage. I will definitely be back.
- Hope
"I don't know whether it's possible to say enough good things about Simona. She is knowledgeable, warm, personable, simultaneously deep and light hearted, skilful and with a strong but delicate touch. As I told her after our session, it's hard not to be entirely besotted with someone who makes you feel so good! I am already looking forward to our next session."
- Joe
"I don’t usually leave reviews and when I do, I don’t usually leave a second one. Simona is simply the best massage therapist I could have found. Not only does she help me re-find my centre with her massage therapy, but the level of care and advice outside of the actual massage have been critical for me in the last few months. Simona is a healer and I’ll recommend her sessions to anyone who needs a caring and safe space. Thank you for being there Simona and for spreading goodness. Still super happy I met you."
- Sofia
"One of the best massages I’ve received. Simona has a beautifully tranquil space and is more than welcoming. She was also very attentive, regularly checking if the pressured used was to my liking. She was extremely knowledgeable and more than equip to navigate my historic injuries."
- Nathaniel
"Simona was really attentive and intuitive, she listened and responded with really valuable wisdom. The massage really helped me connect to my body and allowed me to let go of some held emotion, I felt very safe to express fully. The space is warm, tranquil and beautifully presented. I highly recommend Simona."
