What Is Oncology Massage?
Oncology massage is a modified form of bodywork designed specifically for cancer patients. We adjust the pressure, positioning, and speed of the massage to accommodate medical devices (ports), surgical sites, and side effects like Neuropathy, fatigue, or fragile skin.

Cancer survivors dealing with long-term anxiety or scar tissue.

Frequently Asked Questions
Question 1:Is it safe to get a massage during cancer treatment?
Yes, when performed by a therapist who understands the disease. We avoid deep pressure and areas affected by tumors or treatment, focusing instead on gentle relaxation and symptom relief.
Question 2:Do I need approval from my doctor?
We strongly recommend getting verbal or written clearance from your oncologist, especially if you are currently in active treatment or have low blood cell counts.
Question 3:What should I expect during my session?
Expect a very gentle, slow, and soothing session. We use pillows for comfort and can adjust the table if you cannot lie flat.
Question 4:Can massage help with chemotherapy side effects?
Yes. Clinical studies show that gentle massage can significantly reduce nausea, fatigue, and anxiety associated with chemotherapy and radiation.
