Oncology
is a massage therapy that uses light touch and slow, steady movements, working with the central nervous system to help the body relax. This is a client-specific, customized massage that is designed to meet the unique and changing needs of someone in treatment for cancer or with a history of cancer treatment. A safe massage plan generally revolves around the side effects (both short- and long-term) of chemotherapy, radiation and surgery.
What to expect:
Your therapist will first communicate with you before your massage to determine a specialized treatment for you and where you are at. Your massage will use traditional techniques that have been adapted to account for your unique health situation.
