Gemma Eves — the practitioner behind NeuroMassage
About Gemma
With over 25 years of experience as a specialist massage therapist and wellness practitioner, Gemma has dedicated her career to pioneering accessible, safe, and effective massage for people living with neurological conditions.
Originally trained in Australia, Gemma is now based in the UK where she has built NeuroMassage into a multi-award-winning approach to therapeutic massage. Her specialist focus on stroke, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, and other neurological conditions has shaped every aspect of how NeuroMassage works today.
Gemma's core belief is simple: nobody should be excluded from therapeutic support because of their condition or circumstance. This conviction drives everything she creates — from her clinical practice to her training programmes and digital tools.

Gemma's Vision
"Building a world where everybody — regardless of injury, condition, or circumstance — can access support that feels safe, empowering, and possible."
This vision extends beyond NeuroMassage itself. Gemma is also developing inclusive digital tools designed to support people living with neurological conditions — including Beam, an inclusive mindfulness app, and RE, a gratitude and rehabilitation journal app (launching soon). Each project is shaped by the same principle: everyone deserves access to tools and therapies that honour their needs and preferences.
The Neuro Training School
Gemma founded the Neuro Training School to ensure that specialist NeuroMassage knowledge is accessible to practitioners, nurses, carers, and family members worldwide. The school represents her commitment to raising standards and building a global community of people trained in safe, effective neurological massage.
