Our Story
A letter from the Founder of Gracewood Wellness
I’m Shancy, a Licensed Massage Therapist, healthcare professional, doula, and the founder of Gracewood Wellness, a women-focused massage therapy and wellness practice in Clarksville, Tennessee.
With over 20 years of experience in healthcare—including 14 years as a medical assistant in urgent care, emergency medicine, pulmonary critical care, and chiropractic care—I bring a unique clinical perspective to every session. Combined with my degree in Health Science and massage therapy training from Mind Body Institute, my goal is to provide thoughtful, evidence-informed care that helps clients move, heal, and feel their best.
For the past four years, I’ve specialized in myofascial release, trigger point therapy, and deep tissue massage while also creating restorative sessions focused on relaxation, stress relief, and whole-body wellness.
As Gracewood Wellness continues to grow, so does my commitment to supporting women through every season of life. I have completed my doula training and am continuing my education in lactation support. My vision is to provide compassionate, comprehensive support for women through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and beyond—offering care that nurtures both mother and baby during one of life’s most transformative seasons.
My faith is the foundation of everything I do. I believe God has called me to serve others with compassion, excellence, and grace. Whether you’re seeking pain relief, relaxation, or support through pregnancy and postpartum, my hope is that you’ll find a peaceful space where your body, mind, and spirit can rest, heal, and be renewed.
Rooted in grace. Grown in care.
Services
Therapeutic care designed to meet you where you are—from restorative relaxation and targeted pain relief to specialized support throughout pregnancy and postpartum.
Our approach
Every session is rooted in compassionate, individualized care. No rushed routines, no one-size-fits-all treatments—just thoughtful care centered around you.
Rooted in Grace. Grown in Care.
Gracewood Wellness was born from a simple belief: caring for yourself should never feel like a luxury.
After more than 20 years in healthcare and wellness, I wanted to create something different—a peaceful space where clinical knowledge, therapeutic touch, and genuine compassion come together.
Here, massage isn’t about following the same routine for every person who walks through the door. It’s about listening—to you, to your goals, and to what your body is telling us.
Whether you come to Gracewood seeking relief from chronic tension, a quiet place to exhale, or support as your body changes through pregnancy and postpartum, your care is intentionally designed around you.
Because you deserve more than an appointment.
You deserve to feel cared for.
