Gracie Ang has a healing touch! I was injured several years ago in a Martial Arts competition. The results of that injury kept me in pain for many years. Gracie had mentioned to me that she was giving treatments for muscular strains, tears and pulls, as well as tendon stretching and relaxation. I was skeptical as to whether or not she could help relieve the constant, nagging pain I had been living with for so long.

After just 2 treatments, I began to feel noticeably better. I had more range of motion and the pain had been reduced significantly. My mood changed and I have since, smiled more often, which means more to me than anyone can imagine.

Gracie truly has healing hands and I would recommend her to anyone who is seeking relief.

I have seen Gracie in a professional capacity as a massage client four times.

Being a single mother of two with a host of medical conditions, I thought massage therapy as a trial to alleviate pain and reduce stress and tension in my body. Pancreatitis and a host of other conditions brought me to meet and try Gracie’s massage as a tool to aid in my recovery process and to return to a productive individual that I knew I was.
Her patience, tolerance and understanding were always present whenever I arrived. The atmosphere and ambiance of her massage room allows for relaxation and comfort.

During each half hour massage, she identified critical points of the body to address and practiced her newfound knowledge on those critical points. The massage to knots in some muscles and massaging the area of the pancreas were attended to systematically. She was always attentive, patient and asked how much pressure was acceptable for me. It was apparent to me that professionalism and courtesy towards an individual’s needs is important to her. After each massage she gave recommendations, instructions on how to continue my course of treatment, and a cup of green tea.

The day after treatment, my body and its muscles relaxed and I felt the massage was working. With Gracie’s positive encouragement pain reduction were felt, relaxation of the body and spirit did start to occur.

Gracie is a secure individual who has the professional demeanor and capacity to attend to a client’s needs; inspire the client to seek massage as an alternative medicine for stress and pain management, and address the individual in their quest of a healthy, balanced lifestyle. I look forward to having Gracie as a source of therapy for myself to continue to in my pursuit for a healthy and balanced life. I would recommend her again for that inspiration. Her door is always open.

Hello Gracie,

I just wanted to write you a quick email to thank you for the help you have given me so far with the pain I was suffering from. Your therapeutic massage has made a huge difference in my daily pain level.

Originally, my girlfriend had heard about your work, and after hearing me complain about many aches and pains, she decided to bring me to see you.

It was the first time I had seen a deep tissue massage expert. When we spoke at your studio, you informed me that the massage would hurt somewhat because you had to apply pressure to break up muscle tension and to encourage healing in the tissue. You also explained to me that I had to come on a schedule so that the tissue would have time to heal, but not enough time to start getting damaged again.

The first massage was painful, but the results were impressive. I started feeling less and less pain in my ankle, wrists and shoulders. The frequency of the migraine headaches decreased noticeably.

By the Second, Third and Fourth Massage I noticed the pain was decreasing even though you were still doing deep tissue massage. I was also impressed that you found a few muscle knots where I had no pain at all. I’ve noticed improvement in mobility as well.

I am doing much better now, and experience less pain. I still have some pain in my wrists, but I do a very physical job cutting concrete, so if I had no pain at all I would be very worried, as it would mean I ‘m dead LOL. Just kidding.

I am very glad that my girlfriend encouraged me to seek out help, and that you have been able to help me live with less pain. I look forward to seeing you again in two months to maintain the improvement made.

I have been seeing Gracie for four treatments to resolve pain in my legs and hip area that have been ongoing for the past year. After the first treatment I felt immediate comfort and by the second session I was pain free.

Before going to Gracie, I went to different massage practitioner and even tried Thai massage receiving only temporary relief of pain.

I recommended a few of my friends to Gracie and all are happy with the positive results.

Thank you again.

I came to Grace Ang last November with pain accumulated over the last 50 years from sports injuries, car accident and work related injuries.

I had torn rotator cuffs, sprang ankles, torn calves, injured hips, broken arms, sore lower back, scoliosis of back, burnt feet on beach fire etc.

ICBC didn’t help by giving treatment too late. Worker’s Compensation was much better knowingly that sooner you are treated the sooner you would get back to work – its just not the kind of medical help. Other practitioners only treat or are paid for treating the injuries and cannot treat the whole body.

Gracie treats all the injuries as well as whole body and gets the blood to invigorate all the natural healing to make a younger and healthier you.

In five treatments I am ten years younger and in five more treatments I will be 20 years younger. The pain is short but improvements are lasting.

I went to see Gracie on an issue with my ankle that had been bothering me for a year. After about 5 massages treatments, the severe problem of my ankle had gone away.

While I was in the pre consultation phase Gracie asked about my reoccurring headaches that have plagued me most of my life. I have been seeing massage therapists for over 20 years with little to no success in that area. We had in depth discussion about my issues and treatment began.

I felt initial relief that I had never experienced before. My headaches started to decline in number of occurrences as well as severity in just about 3 massage treatments.

I can today say that I am no longer inflicted with problem headaches. This was a result I didn’t think was possible.

I followed Gracie’s schedule for massage and am now reaping the benefits that no other massage practitioner has given.

I am glad I found Gracie, and highly recommend her services to anyone serious about fixing their ongoing chronic issues.

Started with Gracie Ang in December, 2010. With after 2nd treatment I had good results. After the 3rd treatment, the results were excellent. With lump on rib that I had for 30 years and Achilles injury 5 years ago. At present, I have no pain, no numbness and scars are gone. Hip injury was extremely tender and now is 100% recovered. Gracie also helped with my acid reflux. I sleep better and feel 10 years younger. I feel confident and emotionally content. I strongly recommend Gracie as a qualified practitioner.

I have experienced recurring headaches for approximately twenty years. I also had a left and right shoulder pain, left elbow soreness and my left hip had had difficulty walking for the first few steps. I took Tylenol and Ibuprofen to ease the pain.

I had seen 3 separate chiropractors over the course of that time. I did get some relief, but it never lasted long.

Then I was in a minor car accident in April 2011. My husband set up an appointment for me with Gracie to ease the tension in my body.

Within 3 sessions Gracie was able to wear away a calcium build up that had grown on one of my upper vertebrae, and I have not had a single headache in 5 months now.

Gracie managed to do in 3 visits what 96 chiropractors’ visits could not. I had had about 98 percent of improvement on the health issues I had had mentioned above during my fourth visit.

Thank you Gracie.

I suffered a head trauma that resulted in chronic pain in my head and tension in the back of my neck and shoulders. I also suffered from blurry vision as the result of the head trauma. I was in a 3 day comma and having the trauma for a period of about 8 months.

When I went to the medical doctor initially, I was prescribed the painkillers (ibuprofen 600mg) for the pain and left to my own without further treatment. I took about 2 or 3 of this 600mg ibuprofen per day.

Gracie checked out my injury and gave me some treatments and told me that it was the blockage of the blood flow to my brain, together with the tissue that was scarred before and after as a result.

After two short treatments (about one and a half hour) much to my relief the tension and pain level has dropped significantly and the blurry vision has eased.

I suggested her treatment to anyone who feels chronic pain because it really helps.

Before I went to consult Gracie Ang Tui Na Deep Tissue Massage Practice, my problems were lower shoulder with much pain on a daily basis. Other problems were lateral and posterior sides of the neck area of a regular constant pain once in a week. Chest pain with the quite frequent muscular pain and because of that and other root causes create the frequent diarrhea. I also face quite a lot of pain on the sacral region just below the lumbar region on a regular basis. Usually, after driving for 2 or 3 hours, the right side of the hip area would flare up tremendously. Therefore for that reason, the groin would also flare up to and was facing with excruciating pain an hour each time approximately. Also, when the right hamstring flared up, the pain would not go away for another hour at least.

After seeing Gracie Ang Tui Na Deep Tissue Massage Practice, overall result was really good (95 percent) and I was surprised it did not take more than the third massage treatment to get such good result. I am now enjoying a pain free body and I would go to Gracie’s massage practice on a maintenance basis. I could not express my happiness and gratitude enough at visiting Gracie’s massage practice.

I have been seeing Gracie now for nine months and I am happy to say that I am getting GREAT results.

Before I went to Gracie Ang for her Tui Na Deep Tissue Massage Treatment, my problems were:

• Nose was always blocked with lots of mucus.
• Right and left shoulders would be experiencing lots of pain. Neck on the right and middle – excruciating pain and when I turned I was feeling the “crunchy” sensation and it stiffened up at most times.
• Sternum – stabbing pain, usually for about a couple of hours each time and went on for the whole day occasionally.
• Rib cage – cramped up severely for 4 to 5 minutes when it was turned (every time).
• Thoracic vertebrae (middle) felt “crunchy” constantly.
• Lumbar region- lots of pain and discomfort and when bending over – would also have to sleep on my side and then the pelvic region started to flare up after an hour sleeping in that position and would have to change to the other side of the pelvis.
• Acid reflux – lasted for 10 minutes when occurred.
• Thigh – right and left and severe spasm and sciatic nerve pain that would come at the same time usually when kneeling down for a long time and worsened with a car accident in 2011 (last year). Left thigh would worsen and flare up even more than on the right thigh and knee. The left knee fracture took place many years ago (before the 2011 car accident).
• Knee cap – (left) would be impossible to bend and felt the numbing pain after kneeling for an hour.
• Heel – (left) hurt quite a bit and together with the weak Achilles – tendons and ligaments it was quite bruised from years of not getting the proper treatments.

After about the 3rd to the 4th massage treatments, huge amount of mucus collected in the nasal passage and then had gone away almost completely. The “crunchiness” and severe pain on the nape-of-neck area were gone. The shoulder pain had reduced to almost nothing and the mobility returned. Same improvement came back on the sternum. After about 4th to the 5th massage treatments, rib cage and the middle thoracic vertebrae pain had reduced tremendously from the rate of 9 out of 10 (for pain level). Around this time the sciatic nerve problem had also reduced tremendously. The left knee cap severe pain and immobility had also healed up quite completely from a rate of 9 out of 10. Within this period of time, I did some stretches and also followed some of Ms. Ang’s instructions for dietary advice (and other procedures) on an on-going basis. I received full recovery and she brought back my hopes, dreams and relief introducing me to a pain free and healthy lifestyle. I am still going to Gracie Ang for maintenance and I am very happy with her treatment and I would highly recommend her for those who want to seek permanent pain relief.

When I originally saw Gracie, my main issue was incredibly tense shoulder muscles which were a fairly new addition to my several years long struggle with a sore lower back. After 2 massage treatments, my shoulder muscles were no longer tense and I started noticing an improvement in my lower back. Two treatments later the back was significantly improved at which point Gracie referred me to another professional and between the 2 of them, the back aches I had suffered for many years went away and I am happy to write that I have been pain free now for over a year. Since Gracie uses a holistic approach to healing she asked me what other health problems I had and I mentioned my hemorrhoids. At that time I discovered that Gracie had a good understanding of the causes of this, and what can happen if you don’t work towards improving this. She proved to be very knowledgeable on diets and I noticed that my bowel movements and the frequency and amount of bleeding reduced very significantly after following her advice. Besides the 2 more serious health issues mentioned above, there were 2 other minor issues I told Gracie about. One was occasional ringing in the ears and the other was related to my bladder. To improve the ringing in my ears, Gracie massaged the ear while focusing on certain pressure points. It is now very rare that I suffer from this. The second problem was that I used to wake up in the middle of the night to pee. After several treatments that involved massaging the bladder area, the problem completely went away and I can now even drink a glass of water right before bed without any problems. I continue to see Gracie now on a maintenance basis and continue to feel in great overall health.

I went to Gracie with TMJ  and mid thoracic pain;  both were impacting my lifestyle. I was getting by with Tylenol and ibuprofen every 6 hours.   Within two months of treatment from Gracie my pain has gone down from 7-8/10 to 2-3/10. I stopped using the analgesics on Gracie's recommendation, and have managed without since first seeing her. I have also been following Gracie's dietary recommendations and have noticed an increase in general well being and improved sleeping patterns.  I would not hesitate to recommend Gracie for her therapy expertise.

I went to see Gracie on the advice of my Chiropractor. I was having migraine headaches with numbness on one side of my face. I was in two accidents in the 80s and have suffered from severe whiplash, back, hip and knee pain that was going all the way down to my ankle. My fingers were always going numb at night and in the morning it would last for about 15 min. I also was having night sweats. In other words I was a mess!!

The first time I saw Gracie was in January 2016 after 4 treatments I noticed a big difference. I was sleeping better and no night sweats.  I am on maintenance now my headaches are gone also the numbness in my fingers. My hip and knee don't bother me anymore either.  Gracie made a difference in my life and I will continue my maintenance program with her.

I originally came to see Gracie for chronic back and hip pain that was a result of multiple motor vehicle accidents and being a tradesman mechanic for 25 years .

I also have a history of clinical depression and anxiety for a few decades and the symptoms were foggy thoughts, lack of focus and agility was not there. I was also having some symptoms of severe Gout for many years and on and off night sweats.

Gracie had treated my symptoms successfully and I’ve found that following her recommendations on diet and stretching and also coming back for a maintenance massage after having the great results has really helped my well being.

I find I’m feeling a lot better overall and my mental focus is better than ever .

Thanks for all your help Gracie.
