OnTarget Massage is fronted by Gemma Underwood. OnTarget Massage helps women who are looking for a holistic way to support them with their journey through womanhood. I want to help women who want to support themselves holistically and I can help you with women’s health issues such as:
Menstrual Health
Hormone Imbalance
PCOS, Endometriosis and period problems
Hysterectomy and Menopause Support
With all therapy sessions I use a blend of complementary therapies, aftercare advice, meditation and ongoing support to help you. I qualified in 2012 with a Level 5 Sports and Remedial Massage Diploma from the London School of Sports Massage. It wasn’t long before I realised my niche was helping women who wanted some relief from the stresses and strains in their lives.
After training in pregnancy massage, I soon found myself supporting women with pregnancy aches and pains. Many of my clients were starting to ask me about complementary therapies and whether these could these help with hormone related issues or those struggling to conceive for a second time.
This led me to training in Aromatherapy and also Fertility Massage Therapy™. I have since undertake many further training courses as part of my Continued Professional Development and read many complementary therapy books in the area of Women’s health. I pool all of my experience and knowledge to assist clients in the best way possible to help them achieve their desired outcomes.
I apply my knowledge to meet a client’s unique needs. For example, some powerful lower back techniques that I use during the Fertility Massage Therapy™, can be used on other clients who are also suffering from lower back pain.
My direction of specialism developed in early 2014 when my nephew was conceived it was an ideal time for me to train in pregnancy massage as I was at the age when friends and family were getting pregnant. Word soon spread about the pregnancy massages I was offering and my client base soon shifted towards those who wanted a natural way to alleviate pregnancy aches, pains and symptoms. Many of these clients have since stayed with me as part of their self care routine or to alleviate stresses of life.
In 2016 I trained in aromatherapy in order to add another dimension to the massages I offer. I soon found myself being asked if there was anything I could do support women who were having hormonal issues, heavy and irregular bleeds, menopausal symptoms or secondary fertility issues.
In 2017, I undertook Fertility Massage Therapy™ training, not only does this support women who are on a journey trying to conceive but can also assist in cases such as PCOS, endometriosis, heavy, irregular and painful bleeds. I still have clients for Sports & Remedial Massage, as this is where my initial specialism developed and is very much still a passion of mine.
You can often find me reading about women’s health, with a particular focus on womb health and researching ways in which the complementary therapies that I offer can support women on a holistic level. I undertake regularly training courses to deepen and widen my knowledge.
At weekends you can often find me walking my black Labrador or on a archery field. This is what influenced my business name choice.
My passion is helping women to feel nurtured, nourished and relieved from the every day stresses and strains
