About Oncology Massage

Oncology massage is tailored to the person’s preferences and where they are. Whether they are in a hospital, at home, or in a clinic, the massage may also need to accommodate medical equipment, and being aware of potential side effects someone may be experiencing.

Additionally, the depth of pressure and speed need to be adjusted so that it’s very gentle, slow, and relaxing. The focus of a massage session is more about comforting and helping to alleviate the symptoms of treatment, such as sleeplessness, muscle aches, nausea, pain, and/or low mood.

Oncology massage can be used at any time in a person’s journey with cancer. It may only be working with the head or the feet, or it might only be 15 minutes. Ultimately, it works with the client and what feels good for them at that time.

We begin with a one-on-one consultation to understand your goals, specific concerns and areas of tension.

Before starting the massage, we’ll perform a quick physical assessment to identify any tight or sore muscles and evaluate your range of motion.

This helps in customising the techniques to target problem areas effectively.

The massage session will involve a combination of deep tissue work, stretching and pressure point release. Each technique is carefully chosen based on the initial consultation and assessment to address your specific needs, whether it’s relieving muscle tightness, enhancing flexibility or aiding recovery.

After the massage, we’ll discuss how you feel, offer recommendations for aftercare and suggest any follow-up sessions if needed. This step ensures that you continue to benefit from the session and maintain your physical well-being.
