Welcome, I am so happy youā€™re here.

My intention behind House of Sol is to create a space that feels like a homecoming - a sanctuary where every part of you is seen, held, and honored. Rooted in deep reverence for holistic healing and the rhythms of the natural world, House of Sol is more than just a wellness spa - it's a space for reconnection, transformation, and remembering who you truly are.

Hey, Iā€™m Gemma

The Founder and Practitioner behind House of Sol

My journey into the world of wellness began over 14 years ago while living and working in the breathtaking Marlborough Sounds. Surrounded by the raw beauty of mother nature and her pristine natural landscapes, I became increasingly aware of my carbon footprint and the impact of my daily choices. During that time the local massage therapist introduced me to the art of making my own skincare. This experience ignited a spark within me ā€“ one that still shapes the path I walk today.

For much of my life I felt disconnected from my body and uncomfortable in my own skin. But through years of soul-searching, deep personal healing and studying a variety of holistic healing modalities, I slowly began to experience what it truly felt like to feel safe, grounded and at home in my body.

House of Sol was born from that journey, a space where natural healing, intentional touch and sacred self-care rituals come together to support others on their path back home to themselves.
