Gemma
My name is Gemma and I’m a high-performance sports specialist and the owner and founder of GEM. I have studied for seven years as a sport scientist and seven years as a massage therapist. I have worked with athletes, the elderly, people with disabilities, children, and corporates - finding beneficial techniques in recovery, strength and conditioning and general health and well-being. I look forward to helping you lead a strong, healthy and pain-free life.

Nicole
Hi, my name is Nicole and I am a registered dietitian. I studied at UCT and did a BSc in Human Physiology, followed by Honours in Human Nutrition and Dietetics. I completed my Community Service year at Tshilidzini Hospital in Limpopo and gained experience working with chronic diseases of lifestyle such as diabetes and obesity. I also spent time in the pre- and post-natal wards. I am an avid sportswoman, therefore sports nutrition is a major area of interest for me, both personally and professionally. I look forward to helping you reach your goals in and simple and sustainable way!

Scott
Hi, my name is Scott. I am a qualified massage therapist, personal trainer and coach. I studied at ETA College in Stellenbosch where I completed my Diploma in Sport and Exercise Science. I have always had a big interest in sport and adventure, more recently in trail running, as I love the mountains and exploring new areas. Being an avid runner combined with my knowledge in strength training, I really hope to help other runners and other disciplines in sport by adding a strength program to their training. I have been massaging for over 5 years, working at events like The Cape Epic, Maxi race as well as privately for GEM
I look forward to helping you achieve your goals, get stronger and aid in your recovery process!
