Gemma Challis
Thank you for being here and taking the time to explore the gifts I have to share.
My name is Gemma Challis and I have been in practice for 25 years. I am a Holistic Pelvic Care™ Practitioner, Fertility & Womb Massage Therapy™ Practitioner, Reproductive Reflexologist™, Childbirth Educator, Bach Flower Essence Practitioner and Compassionate Coach, mentoring women going through life transitions. Although I specialise in women’s health and wellness my work is open to everyone.
My focus is to create a safe container for you to really land into your body where healing and transformation starts from the power within. I work intuitively and emphatically supporting women through all stages of life from menarche to the postmenopausal years, by offering a diverse range of healing services to best support and address; menstrual and hormonal imbalances, fertility, pre-conception, pregnancy/postpartum care, womb health, feminine wounding, trauma release, sexual health, baby loss, hysterectomies, menopause, pelvic floor imbalances and women’s wellness.
You are also very welcome to come for stress reduction and relaxation, using a blend of holistic therapies to best support you.
For as long as I can remember I have been studying subjects such as spirituality, women’s mysteries and natural healing. When I was 19 my intuition guided me to study Reflexology and I knew I had found my dharma in natural holistic approaches to healing our bodies, minds and souls. After qualifying in 1997 I worked in a variety of prestigious places in London and gained a wealth of experience, I then realised my love of bodywork and undertook additional training. Motivated by the birth of my first child I moved into specialising in women’s health, fertility, pregnancy and childbirth education. I’m now a lucky mum to three beautiful children that teach me more about life and myself every day.
I am deeply passionate about women’s health and honoured to be of service to women and their babies, gently guiding women to reconnect with their cycles and listen to the wisdom of their bodies.
My births taught me how beautiful and powerful women’s bodies are and how important it is to listen to our inner wisdom. I wanted to offer a nurturing space for women to connect with themselves in this way. I provide supportive holistic therapies, education and self-care, to heal and rebalance the body and mind to achieve the best levels of health, vitality and emotional ease. I hold much experience and knowledge in creating a supportive, held space for your healing and well-being in which we can work together as a team.
Working with a heart centred intuitive approach means I honour your individuality by offering very bespoke treatments, blending various techniques and working holistically with all aspects of your being – the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. With a client centred integrated approach I take into account the whole person and look at the root cause not just the symptoms, allowing me to work with the body’s natural capacity to heal itself, creating a very tailored treatment plan to your individual needs.
I am dedicated to providing a calming and healing experience whether helping couples become a family, helping women feel vibrant, healthy and supported through all stages of their lives, nurturing women through pregnancy, labour and postpartum. I absolutely love what I do, it brings me joy and inspires me every day.
My life has been a path of opening as I work on my own embodiment and living by my truest nature, a work in progress! I have a special interest in environmental healing, earth mysticism, dowsing for health/earth energies/geomancy having trained with Dr Patrick McManaway and Vicky Sweetlove. In my spare time I love to crochet and you can find me exploring Mother Nature and ancient sites with my family and friends.
