Oncology Massage

Service Description

Cancer Care Massage, also known as Oncology Massage, is a specialised massage therapy that is adapted to meet the unique needs of individuals undergoing cancer treatment. Contrary to common misconceptions, research has shown that massage does not cause cancer to spread. In fact, massage is considered safe for cancer patients at all stages of treatment, except for a few specific cases. Many renowned oncology hospitals even offer massage as a complementary therapy to support cancer patients. Massage has been found to provide numerous benefits for individuals with cancer, helping them feel less anxious and improving their physical and emotional well-being. It is crucial, however, to ensure that the massage therapist is fully qualified in Oncology Massage. They will ask specific questions related to the client's treatment to gain a comprehensive understanding of their current stage of treatment. This allows the therapist to tailor their techniques and strokes accordingly, ensuring a safe and effective massage experience. Whether you are in the midst of chemotherapy or have completed your treatment, treating yourself to a cancer care massage can be a wonderful way to relax and indulge in some pampering. The benefits of Oncology Massage include: Reducing Pain: Massage can help alleviate pain associated with cancer and its treatments, providing relief and promoting comfort.

Managing Nausea: Massage therapy can assist in reducing nausea and discomfort caused by cancer treatments, improving overall well-being. Easing Anxiety and Depression: The nurturing touch and relaxation provided by massage can help alleviate feelings of anxiety and depression, promoting emotional balance. Relief from Peripheral Neuropathy: Massage can offer relief from peripheral neuropathy, a condition characterised by nerve damage and loss of sensation. In addition to these specific benefits, patients often experience improvements in various areas such as sleep quality, digestion, stress levels, scar tissue health, body image, overall quality of life, range of movement, and mental clarity. If you are undergoing cancer treatment, don't hesitate to explore the benefits of Oncology Massage.
