If you’re looking for a moment of deep calm in the middle of London, follow me to the fourth floor of Liberty—across a small bridge and straight into the canopy. That’s where The Treehouse by Wildsmith has made a permanent home: a serene treatment and retail space inspired by the arboretum at Heckfield Place and the visionary botanist William Walker Wildsmith.
From the very first step, the space pulls you into nature. An ever-changing projection of Wildsmith’s trees welcomes you, while the soundscape—recorded on the Heckfield Estate—softly resets your nervous system. The whole experience is designed to harmonize with the body’s circadian rhythm, and you feel that intention immediately.
Gratitude First
A heartfelt thank you to Katherine Pye for the invitation and warm welcome, and to Katie, the exceptional therapist whose magical hands and grounded presence made the experience as restorative as it was luxurious. Katie’s touch is intuitive, precise, and deeply calming—the definition of healing through skill and intention.
The Treatment I Tried: Radical Botany Facial
Wildsmith’s signature, clinically backed facial is available as a 30- or 60-minute treatment. I received the 60-minute version and loved every thoughtful element: guided breathwork, a gentle cleanse and exfoliation, myofascial release, and carefully chosen, clinically proven formulas that nourished without overwhelming.
The longer format also includes craniosacral holds—subtle, tension-melting work that left my face lifted and my whole body exhaling. Wildsmith notes that the facial protocol is clinically proven to increase skin moisture levels by 194% after 24 hours, and my skin backed that up—fresh, dewy, and calm, with no redness, just health.
Sensory Storytelling That Transports You
One detail I especially loved was the sounds and landscapes integral to Wildsmith’s identity. On-screen visuals of lavender fields and botanicals from their wellness hotel bring the outside in, so you’re not just pampered—you’re connected to the living source of what’s touching your skin.
Other Treatments Worth Exploring: The Rebalancing Massage
Wildsmith’s Rebalancing Massage is tailored around time-of-day essential oil blends—think circadian support, not just “one scent fits all.” The pressure was slow and purposeful, and the benefits were whole-body: improved circulation, diminished tension, and a clear, grounded mind. “Earthy and organic” is exactly how it felt—rooted, simple, and profoundly effective.
Why Wildsmith Aligns with Crunchy Mama Box Values
Wildsmith calls their philosophy Radical Botany—science-backed plant power, clinically tested formulas, and a deep respect for nature’s rhythms. As a clean-living advocate, I appreciate their emphasis on the right ingredient, to the right area, at the right time, in the right dosage, along with their ongoing commitment to responsible crafting and minimizing environmental impact. It’s beauty that prioritizes wellbeing and stewardship—exactly the kind of brand we love to spotlight.
