Marisa Shearer

Marisa is a Menstrual Health Therapist and educator who supports women and girls to understand, care for and trust their bodies through Abdominal Therapy, Fertility Awareness and menstrual health education.

 

Her own journey with painful periods and birth trauma led her to discover a very different relationship with her body, one built on knowledge, awareness, self care and trust. This experience, alongside years of learning and working in women’s health, has shaped her approach and her desire to help other women feel more at home in their bodies.

 

Marisa is a trained Abdominal Therapy Practitioner & Educator and has completed Fertility Awareness training with Lisa Hendrickson-Jack, learning to teach the Sympto-Thermal Method through the observation of cervical mucus, basal body temperature and cervical position.

 

Her work spans the menstrual years, from supporting girls as they approach their first periods, to helping women navigate painful or challenging cycles, fertility, pregnancy, postpartum and beyond. Her approach combines hands on bodywork with practical education and self care tools that women can take home and continue using for themselves.

 

Marisa’s work is rooted in a simple belief: women and girls deserve to understand their bodies, not fear them.
