Sophie Messager

A PhD in Physiology of Reproduction turned holistic women’s transition guide, I’ve been bridging science and spirit since 2010. My journey has led me from lab coats to birth rooms, and now to supporting women through all of life’s major transitions. I’ve mastered a range of techniques including closing the bones ritual, Reiki, and drum healing. I teach these skills to women seeking wholeness and holistic professionals alike. My unique approach blends evidence-based practices with spiritual wisdom, helping women connect deeply with their authentic selves. Whether you’re navigating birth, perimenopause, or any significant life change, I’m here to guide you on your transformative journey.
