Cancer Care Massage

For those living with cancer and its associated treatments, a massage provides a much needed retreat from a very invasive illness. People with cancer or those recovering from its treatment can benefit greatly from a specially adapted massage from a specially trained Massage Therapist.

Multiple studies now link specialised massage for people affected by cancer with significant reduction in pain, fatigue, nausea, depression and anxiety. Massage can help lift mood, restore energy and improve ability to sleep. It can also help re-establish a positive body image by restoring the client’s faith in and acceptance of their body in its new state.
