Danielle Carr-Gomm , 71 , died at a retreat run by Hongchi Xiao in Wiltshire in 2016 .
Xiao was an alternative healer and practised 'paida lajin' a therapy in which people slap themselves and others to expel toxins from the body.
Her son, Matthew , said he wished she had done more research on Xiao .
Xiao had already been jailed for a previous offence in Australia where a six-year-old boy died.
Department of Health and Social Care urged anyone seeking therapy treatments to use qualified practitioners who are on a professional register.
Irena Stoynova, 39 , from Hampshire , was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, a type of cancer.
She tried a restricted raw-food diet, intermittent fasting, boiling herbs and special teas.
But she became so unwell, she almost died and had to undergo chemotherapy.
She has now made a full recovery and wants to warn others of the risks of alternative treatments.
