Massage has both therapeutic and relaxation benefits which can assist with injury recovery, decreasing tension, promoting relaxation and reducing stress. Therapeutic massage is commonly combined with acupuncture or reiki treatments. It targets the same acupoints but uses touch pressure instead of needles to stimulate the body’s natural chi meridians.

Oscillating pressure techniques differing in force and speed are used depending on the client’s needs. The session can be a stronger deep tissue massage or a gentler more energetic treatment.
Muscles, tendons and joints are manipulated to restore and reinforce function. Practitioners may also use light, heat or herbal poultices in conjunction with the massage.
Tracey Shewan is a trained practitioner in Chinese therapeutic massage (tuina). This considers the flow of Qi imperative to good health. Incorrect or unbalanced vital energies can lead to stagnation which can cause illness and disease.
“I have stage four melanoma and had read in a survivors story of someone who used Reiki for relaxation and to help deal with the side effects of cancer treatments. So I went looking for a local practitioner and found Tracey. I also had a tumour removed from my armpit so went to Tracey for acupuncture, massage, cupping and reiki.
I went every week for the first couple of years and I am thoroughly convinced her healing hands have been a part of my ability to be stable for the past three years since my diagnosis in 2018. Tracey has a fantastic bedside manner, so calm and professional. I go once a month now and it's hugely beneficial to me. I highly recommend Koru Healing for cancer support.”

“I had acupuncture, massage and cupping therapies with Tracey over 12 sessions following an elbow injury. I’d tried a few things including physio and it wasn’t effective in the long term. This has solved the issue though. Now I just go once a month for maintenance. She’s friendly and professional."
