The GC, 41, bought in a healer, physiotherapist and personal trainer to address the foot pain she's had since returning from a trip to Bethlehem, which she described as "like a curse".

However, today the former TOWIE star said that thanks her physio she's feeling ready to tackle Mount Kilimanjaro, as she was given a cupping massage, telling fans on Instagram: "Guy if it's good enough for Gwyneth [Paltrow], it's good enough for me."

After inviting the trio to her home on Wednesday evening, Gemma told her followers in a video: "I'm in agony. Oh my God, is this man the G-O-D.

"One session I'm walking, I'm up, I'm round the kitchen. I can't tell you the agony I've been in it's like a curse.

Today, the reality TV favourite provided an update, saying: "It's a miracle. I am up and walking this morning like a new woman. Phew. Let's get 2023 on the road now thank you."

Earlier this evening Gemma posted a video while her her physio gave her a cupping massage, which creates suction on the skin, and told her followers: "Guys if it's good enough for Gwyneth, it's good enough for me.

"I am having cupping. Gwyneth swears by this. Will this turn me into a supermodel? So good news is 48 hours in after my first physio and literally I am ready to walk up Kilimanjaro, now I am having cupping, I am just a health goddess, I am going to be a health goddess."

Gemma has recently returned from a trip to Bethlehem with her fiancé Rami Hawash, and spoke about feeling "blown away" when she visited the spot Jesus was born.

The Dancing on Ice star said she's looking forward to her "spiritual journeys in 2023" after touching the silver 14-pointed star that marks the traditional site of the birth of Jesus in a grotto underneath Bethlehem's Church of the Nativity.

"BETHLEHEM I can’t believe I’ve been so unbelievably lucky to have been where baby Jesus was born and touch the spot I am totally blown away and looking forward to my spiritual journeys in 2023," she wrote on Instagram.

"The feeling of this was like nothing I’ve ever felt before I can’t even describe what I felt in that moment I was totally blown away #bethlehem."

Gemma has always been spiritual and in 2020 claimed she's a prophet who was put on Earth to help end the pain and suffering of others.

The GC said on her BBC podcast: "I honestly think I was put on the Earth to be some sort of prophet.

"It is something I will talk about in time. I have endured pain and suffering in my life, things haven't always been easy, I have suffered. And now I can help people in their lives."
