Oncology/Cancer Massage

Oncology/Cancer massage is a wonderful treatment for those who have been diagnosed with cancer, are going through treatment for cancer or who have recently stopped receiving treatment within the past 6 months. The purpose of this treatment is to promote relaxation & a sense of calm in a very trying time.

If you feel like this is you, PLEASE READ BELOW:

This is a very light pressure treatment, the focus will not be around getting knots out or deep tissue. This is because the cancer treatment or the type of cancer can make one prone to touch sensitivity, bruising or they may reduce bone density, and although the deeper pressure may feel good at the time, later on in the day or the next day you may feel particularly sore. Do not worry, having a massage WILL NOT spread the cancer.

The massage can be done face up/face down/side lying, so if a particular position is too uncomfortable, we can cater to this and adjust as needed.

We as practitioners have to be mindful if lymph nodes have been removed, if lymphoedema is present and what medication you are on (if any). During the consultation please provide us with as much information as possible!

If you stopped having treatment more than 6 months ago, we can slowly start to explore firmer pressures as we go on. It is all subjective & depends on what you can handle as an individual.

If you have any questions about this treatment, please do not hesitate to contact via email (info@randrcenter.co.uk) or mobile (07515146379), prior to making a booking.
