Our Story

Where it all began

Gemma has been a physiotherapist for many years, during which time she observed a significant gap in the healthcare model, which primarily focuses on managing chronic diseases like cancer rather than proactively supporting individuals in maintaining and improving their overall health. This realization fueled her desire to create a space where people could reflect on their present and future, shaping their daily exercise routines to ensure active and healthy lives in later years. Gemma envisioned a haven devoid of fad diets and exercises, emphasizing evidence-based practices that could even be referred to as "Exercise Medicine." If this remedy were a pill, we'd all take it daily, but since it's not that simple, Gemma aspired to establish a beautiful, enjoyable space in which people can get their 'dosages' of exercise or therapy.

Why we do this

  • "Dear Gemma, thank you for all the kind help you have given me these past months, it is all very much appreciated. Your gentle nature has made a difference."

  • I have no hesitation in recommending Gemma Harris and her associates to anyone being treated for cancer. Whilst I’ve always been active, exercise classes have never been my thing. However, with Gemma’s encouragement I’m embracing the idea. From my reading, the evidence is clear that exercise is a key component of both effective treatment and reducing the risk of reoccurrence. Gemma’s holistic approach, providing physio, exercise, scar tissue massage and counselling is so valuable. I wish everyone could access such great care.

  • I’ve started 1:1 Pilate sessions with Monica, and I’m loving them. Sessions whizz by, they’re fun and l’m already feeling stronger and more confident.

  • "Excellent service. 1-1 attention and Gemma listened to the issues that I had. Gemma said she’d design a programme to meet my needs for my next session"
