“I am so grateful that Lauren was recommended to me by a friend after I had been struggling with a painful shoulder for a couple of months. She was very caring, knew exactly how to help and only three sessions later, coupled with personalised exercises, my shoulder was pain free and back to full flexibility. I only wish I had seen her sooner! I always felt very safe in Lauren’s experienced hands and other family members are now seeing her to help ease their painful joints.”                                                                                                                             Received via email October 2024

 I was super happy with my first sports massage with Lauren today. As well as the actual treatment, which was fantastic, it is obvious that Lauren also knows a great deal about both the physical and mental aspects of exercise and recovery. She was able to provide really helpful suggestions for improving my running and strength and conditioning workouts. Very knowledgeable, very professional and full of encouragement and positivity.

I’d just like to say that I saw Lauren for a massage on my lower back yesterday. Without doubt, this was the best massage I’ve ever had (I’ve had quite a few!). My back was the loosest it’s ever been following a massage. Thank you so much. I will definitely be visiting again once I’m back in Cornwall                                                                                                                              July 2023

I  had left total knee replacement surgery on December 13th 2022. Lauren has been giving me weekly physiotherapy for the last 10 weeks.  Although the hospital gave me some post op exercises,Lauren has built on these week by week to give me a structured progressive programme of exercise to increase my mobility and strength. Lauren is a hard task master but always encouraging and supportive. I don’t think I would have reached the same level of mobility and strength so quickly without her and her positive encouragement                                                                                                                  Female – April 2023

Thank you so much for my very first session with you today, a first on Hydrotherm, I found it very comforting & most of all your treatment second to none.

I have just had the most fabulous time with Anna, she is absolutely fabulous, and she worked so hard on my tense body, cried again. She has helped me so much and I have booked a 2 hourly session with her again next week. I was truly in a very bad way and feel 10 stone lighter!

I just wanted you to know how grateful I am, feel so much better.

Female receiving massage therapy with Anna-Leena June 2022

I have received a sports massage from Lauren for approximately 4/5 sessions and the difference to my knee is just incredible.  I have suffered for years with endless discomfort which was even affecting my daily walking, it was so uncomfortable I started to stop doing the very thing I loved.  I am now virtually pain free.  She suggested various exercises to back up her treatment which I follow every day.  Lauren has been kind, supportive and understanding so much so that I continue with a monthly session just to keep me in check.

I just want to say a huge thank you to Lauren. I’ve had a few sessions with her and it really made a huge difference, not only in my sporting and gym capacity, but also in my challenging and strenuous role within the emergency services.

Lauren in so friendly & really puts you at ease, providing fantastic treatment, with an excellent knowledge base; in such a relaxing environment.

I cannot recommend her enough.

 This is a testimonial for Keheren therapy – it was the best massage I have ever experienced.

Having had a bad back since I was approximately 11 years old I have tried everything from chiropractic to to physiotherapy as well as numerous different massage styles – nothing has worked as well as Debbie at Keheren therapy
Furthermore, I cannot recommend more highly the hydrotherapy system -it allows for comfort warmth and a sense of safety for your massage.

Debbie is experienced and exceptional practitioner who brings her multitude of skills and makes you feel like your experience is the most important in her day.

I would recommend Keheren therapy to anyone it was a wonderful experience

Lauren gave me a video consultation last week to advise me on healing a muscle injury I got whilst running.She is very knowledgeable and explains everything clearly and professionally.She is very personable and I felt at ease talking to her.The stretching exercises she advised me to try are brilliant and even enjoyable! She has also advised me on a running plan that has meant I feel confident to carry on running and not let injury deter me, just some adjustments to my regime.She also followed up the video call with an email which was helpful .I look forward to getting a sports massage from Lauren when we are allowed out again.

Lauren’s work with me was of the highest standard. I had an ACL injury with an MCL sprain to my right knee playing football and wasn’t able to have the reconstruction, as I was unable to take time off work being self employed. Rehab was related to range of movement and strength, progressing through eventually to sports-specific rehab. I also found that massage therapy was a huge success in helping me return to full fitness. She made an excellent rehab programme for me from start to finish and the work I done with her gave me the confidence to play again after the guidance she had given me. Rehab and treatments, such as massage therapy also helped me to continue work being self employed. She didn’t rush anything or push me harder than was needed and ultimately made the correct decision when I was fit to play again to avoid any recurrence of the injury I had sustained (shown in video). I would recommend Lauren to anyone recovering from injuries sporting or otherwise. Thank you

Review received June 2020

Completed an online assessment with Lauren for a knee injury. Easy process to book and then navigate online to begin appointment. Lauren was very knowledgable and made things easy to follow, I particularly liked the part with the pen marks on her skin and then I mirrored on mine, to pinpoint as best as possible what the problem/where the pain was according to each movement/position. The instructions for the movement tests were also clear. A written assessment was forwarded to me, along with an excellent online rehab programme. I can finally look forward to the recovery and getting active again.

That you can have a full body massage while lying on your back is incredible. No awkward turning over half way through, no embarrassing mark on your face from lying with your face in a strange-shaped hole! You can relax for the whole hour of your treatment. The water bed is so comfortable and warm – it’s just bliss. Debbie literally has magic hands that untie the knots and melt away the stress with just the right amount of pressure, leaving you feeling wonderfully relaxed

Female Feb 2020

Debbie’s massages are legendary, and it is always a treat to book in. She is friendly, warm- hearted, and an expert in her field. Not only are the massages brilliantly relaxing, but they are also great at keeping on top of any little physical niggles so that I can continue enjoying various activities without being hampered by injury. The fact that Debbie is also medically trained means that I feel completely safe in her hands. I would recommend everyone to try a keheren therapy massage

female 25/2/2020

Thank you for fitting me  in on a cancellation after I’d just done the long training walk for the 100k I’m doing next month for Mind. I can’t tell you how much I appreciated it and how much you helped my poor legs!! I also think you’ve ruined all future massages for me because the combination of the massage and that water mattress was heavenly!

– Female August 2019

‘Thank you for organising my appointment on such short notice, and to thank Hannah for a brilliant massage! I left feeling 100% better then when I arrived and I feel even better today! Hannah was very polite and made me feel really welcome and her knowledge is awesome. Thank you once again and I will definitely recommend you to friends and family.’

“I booked in to see Debbie for a pregnancy massage after hearing great things about her. She definitely did not disappoint! I was in my third trimester so unsure how I would feel being on my back but Debbie had a great water bed type mat that made me feel so comfortable. I felt she really understood where my problem areas were and applied just the right amount of pressure. It was heavenly, she’s got magic Cornish hands! I felt so incredible relaxed afterwards and I can’t wait to book in for my next massage. A thousand thank yous Debbie! x”

Hi all, I’ve recently had my third session with Keheren Therapy and wanted to let people know what a great experience it was. The therapist is a friendly and kind person who immediately puts you at ease. If you have a particular problem/problems she will explain in detail what she plans to do regards to working on and releasing tense and knotted muscles. Which is what my lower back in particular greatly needs. The hydrotherm system feels great,with your own body weight assisting into getting deep into those aching muscles. She is also constantly aware of applying just the right amount of pressure so as not to cause any undue pain. A great experience indeed. Thank you.

I feel so fortunate to have found Keheren Therapy. I am a Physiotherapist and long time deep tissue massage client in the USA with chronic neck pain for over 7 years. My move to the UK over the past 5 months has been very stressful which caused significant flare up of my symptoms. After just 3 sessions my symptoms are virtually gone.

The Hydrotherm was new to me and I really feel it was a great adjunct to the massage. The therapist is highly skilled in my opinion possessing an intuitive knowledge of not only the physical anatomy of the human body but also the importance of the emotional body. She was compassionate, supportive and understanding of my emotional state from the very first visit which was critical for me at the time to allow healing to occur. I honestly don’t know what state I would be in now if I had not been so blessed to find her.

Female January 2018

I have just experienced the very best massage I have ever had, truly amazing. I feel like I have walked out of Debbie Slaters’ clinic truly free from my tensions, pains and woes with my back.
1 FULL hour of proper medical massage manipulation. Honestly people this was a different level of relaxation
Worth every Penny❤️❤️❤️❤️

Full body massage May 2017 – 54 year old female

I can’t recommend a pregnancy massage by Keheren Therapy enough. I loved the hydrotherm massage, lying on a water filled cushion on your back for an hour in total relaxation is heaven and much needed during pregnancy. I’m already booking myself in for another massage before the baby arrives Amazing treatment!

Female – Pregnancy massage (October 2016)

….If you have sore aching muscles, and want some real help. Do try Debbie’s amazing massages. Tackling every knot and spasm, she teases out all the pains. As a highly trained nurse, she is also there to reassure and analyse any worries and offer a sympathetic ear. She is fabulous and her massages are amazing…. London’s gain is Cornwalls loss..

Female, 48, Designer (August 2016)

I have been a patient since Debbie started the business and have been coming every month ever since. Having had back pain for years probably as a result of a lot of golf, I did used to go to the Chiropractor regularly but have found that deep tissue massage on the muscles works very well and I only have to see the Chiropractor rarely.

The Hydrotherm system so much more comfortable than the traditional massage bed. I really recommend Keheren to everyone.
Yours sincerely

Regular Patient, male aged 79 (July 2016).

I would like to thank Debbie for the Treatment I have received for my lower back and neck pain, which was the outcome of a very bad Road Traffic Accident about 8 years ago.

Doctors told me that I would probably suffer from these pains for the rest of my life . I am not to keen on having steroid injections due to many people I know, having said they have been unsuccessful for them or at best , a short term fix. I used to take pain killers every day to try and relieve my pain…s, but they never really helped. After trying physiotherapy and a couple of other Chiropractors and having no success , I was introduced to Debbie !!!!

I really don’t know where to start . I know what she does to my back and neck , but have no idea how she makes the pain TOTALLY go away . This took maybe 4-5 sessions to make a big difference and the fact I go back approx every 5-6 weeks ,(I regard this as a service) leaves me feeling pain FREE . This has hugely improved my life and well being and has completely changed my outlook for the future . Thank you so much Debbie for all you have done for me :-).

Regular Client

Thank you so much for an amazing treatment!
That deep tissue massage was fabulous and I got off that bed feeling as if I was floating.ee
I suffer with a lot of pain daily and I have so little pain right now – it feels great to not be doubled up in agony.  

New Client

The Therapist was very friendly and easy to talk to, which puts you at ease. Wow what a different experience to other massages I’ve had. I went for the hydrotherm, and it was amazing!!! Would def recommend to try this out….thank you!!!!

New Client

What can I say…had a wonderful ‘deep tissue massage’ today at Keheren Therapy. Aches, pains and strains forgotten. So totally relaxed and floated out. I will be back. Thank you.
