MASSAGE FOR ONCOLOGY

Gentle Healing for Cancer Patients

Oncology massage is a specialised form of massage therapy tailored to meet the unique needs and considerations of individuals going through cancer treatments or those with a history of cancer. This gentle and supportive approach aims to enhance the overall well-being of cancer patients by addressing the physical and emotional challenges they may face.

Oncology massage is highly adaptable, recognising the individuality of each person’s cancer journey. Techniques are modified based on the type of cancer, treatment phase, and any existing side effects.

The focus of oncology massage is on alleviating symptoms such as pain, fatigue, anxiety, and nausea. Gentle touch can provide comfort and relief during challenging times.

Therapists offering oncology massage often collaborate closely with the patient’s healthcare team. This ensures a comprehensive understanding of the individual’s medical history and any treatment-related considerations.

Beyond physical benefits, oncology massage offers emotional support. The nurturing touch fosters a sense of relaxation, reduces stress, and promotes a positive mindset during a challenging period.

Therapists are trained to create a safe and comfortable environment for cancer patients. Pillows, bolsters, and positioning techniques are used to accommodate any physical limitations or discomfort.

Open communication is essential. Patients are encouraged to communicate their comfort levels, and therapists obtain informed consent to ensure a tailored and safe experience.
