Massage for Cancer Patients
Massage therapy is a way to enhance your quality of life during and after your cancer treatment. Due to the internal effort your body is making to heal, and the stresses it endures during treatment, massage for people with cancer has a specialized approach and set of techniques.Manual Lymph Drainage is a powerful technique that can be incorporated into a cancer recovery treatment. I have been trained in massage for cancer patients, and find this work particularly rewarding, both for myself and my clients. Deep massage is not advisable for anyone post-surgery, or for anyone receiving or recovering from cancer treatments. Gentle touch is typically far more effective. Together, we can work on the appropriate amount of bodywork for your particular needs, so you are feeling your best even during this challenging time. For those who can't be on the massage table for an entire hour, I'm happy to offer shorter session times, and to slide the fee to reflect that. Please contact me to make arrangements.
