Oncology Massage – Safe, Gentle, and Personalized
Oncology massage is a specialized form of massage therapy designed to support the unique needs of people living with cancer. Unlike traditional massage, it uses modified techniques tailored to each individual’s health status, treatment plan, and comfort level.
Therapists trained in oncology massage understand how cancer and its treatments—like surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation—affect the body. They adapt each session by adjusting:
-
Pressure
-
Treatment areas
-
Positioning
-
Session length
These modifications help ensure massage is both safe and effective for clients who are in active treatment, remission, or recovering from cancer.
