Oncology Massage

Support your well-being following a cancer diagnosis

I am a Certified Oncology Massage Practitioner and can treat you at whatever stage of treatment you are undergoing. You may be in remission and years after initial treatment, but there are still things that need to be taken into consideration when you are receiving massage treatment to ensure that it is safe and effective. This is why it is so important to see someone who has had specific training in Oncology Massage.

 

Massage can have so many positive benefits to help you manage the wide range of side effects from surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy:

  • Offers pain relief

  • Reduces nausea

  • Improves sleep

  • Decreases anxiety and depression

  • Improves range of movement & breathing

  • Quicker healing & aids scar tissue elasticity

I treat Cording post breast cancer surgery, which can cause pain and restrict shoulder and arm movement.

I am also trained in manual lymphatic drainage massage and taping and can help reduce swelling and pain from secondary lymphoedema post-treatment. 

I use a variety of massage techniques to help your general well-being and address symptoms from treatment for all types of cancer and treat both men and women. I can provide treatment at my calm, garden studio or come to your home or hospital/hospice (subject to diary availability).

Please get in touch to discuss your individual case and circumstances.
