About Me

From early on, I was drawn to understanding the human body and how it works. That interest led me to study Radiography, and I’ve now worked in healthcare for over twenty years. Over time, my curiosity expanded beyond anatomy and diagnosis to a deeper appreciation of how closely our bodies, emotions and life experiences are intertwined.

A postgraduate qualification in MRI strengthened my understanding of anatomy and complex health conditions. Yet it was through years of working alongside people — listening to their stories as well as observing their symptoms — that I became increasingly interested in the body’s ability to adapt, protect and, given the right support, find its way back towards balance.

My own health experiences deepened this understanding and led me to Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy. I was drawn to its gentle yet profound approach, and to the way it bridges modern scientific insight with subtle, attentive therapeutic work.

I trained in Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy with Body College and continue to deepen my practice through further study in areas including trauma, chronic health conditions, mother and baby work, and intergenerational patterns.

I work with babies, children and adults of all ages. My approach is gentle, thoughtful and client-led. I offer a calm, inclusive space where each person can feel safe, heard and respected — and where the nervous system can begin to settle. From that place of safety, the body has the opportunity to restore its natural rhythms and balance in its own time.

When we feel safe and heard, the body begins to settle and find its way back to balance.

My Clinic

My clinic is a quiet, bright and welcoming space in the Galway countryside, close to Clarinbridge, Oranmore, Craughwell and Kilcolgan.

Surrounded by nature, it offers a calm and private setting. The space is warm and relaxed, allowing you to settle in and feel at ease during your session.

There is ample on-site parking and easy access, with the space suitable for people of all ages and mobility levels.

Client Testimonials

"From the moment I arrived, I felt at ease. The space is calm and welcoming, and Mairéad’s presence is gentle and reassuring. I came feeling overwhelmed and tense, and after just a few sessions I noticed a real shift — better sleep, less anxiety, and a deeper sense of balance. I always leave feeling lighter and more grounded."

“I didn’t realise how much stress I was holding in my body until I began sessions. The work is subtle but deeply powerful. It feels like my whole system has more space now. I feel calmer in situations that used to trigger me, and my body feels more settled.”

“I started Craniosacral Therapy during a particularly challenging time with my health. The sessions gave me a space to pause and reconnect with myself. I felt listened to, supported, and deeply respected. Over time I noticed improvements not only physically, but emotionally as well.”
