Oncology Massage

Service Description

Oncology massage is the modification of a normal massage to safely work with the effects of cancer and cancer treatments. It is a client- specific, customized massage session, designed to meet the changing and unique needs of someone in treatment for cancer or with a history of cancer and cancer treatments(chemo, radiation). A certified therapist uses light touch and slow, steady movements, working with the central nervous system to help the body relax, while being aware of symptomatic responses to a treatment session. Who is this right for? Everyone affected by cancer — people in active treatment, those in recovery or survivorship, those at the end of life, and even caregivers — can benefit from oncology massage.
