Gentle and holistic approach to enhancing your overall wellbeing

Oncology Massage

What Is Oncology Massage?

There were myths associated with the safety of massage for oncology patients for fear of spreading cancer.  These myths are myths and not true. Evidence suggests that massage can be hugely beneficial for those undergoing cancer treatment and managing the nasty side effects.  It helps promote a feeling of wellbeing, lift mood and improve sleep.

How Can Oncology Massage Benefit You?

  • Pain Relief: Reduce the side effects of cancer treatment.
  • Stress Reduction: By reducing stress ones body is in a better place to promote healing.
  • Emotional Wellbeing: Going through cancer treatment can be hugely emotional.  Having massage can help you deal with these emotions and give you an outlet for them.
  • Improved Sleep: Enhance the quality of your sleep through relaxation.

Is Oncology Massage Right For You?

If you are currently going through cancer treatment or have had cancer, then this therapy can be hugely beneficial for you.  There is no evidence to say that massage can treat cancer, but it can help you manage the side effects of treatments and put your body into the best possible position for healing.  Check with your cancer care team that massage will be beneficial.  It is not advisable to have massage on areas where you’ve recently had radiotherapy, or areas where the skin is broken, bleeding or bruised.  If you have lymphoedema, it is advisable to you seek out someone trained in lymphatic drainage massage.

  • Paying for Katie’s services has been without a doubt the best thing I could have done to support me with my pain journey.

    Katie brings a wealth of experience to her consultations with you, however I feel the most important thing she brings is support, empathy and understanding. You do not feel alone with your symptoms, most importantly because she has been through her own chronic pain journey, which is the reason why I decided to work with her. She had been through it herself, she didn’t make silly promises, she just explained her history and the science behind it.
