Ease Side Effects, Restore Balance: Discover Oncology Massage

At Sn Clinic we have now started oncology massage. This is a specialised therapeutic massage tailored for individuals with cancer or those undergoing cancer treatments. It focuses on gentle techniques designed to alleviate symptoms such as pain, fatigue, and stress that may be associated with cancer or its treatment. Our therapist will adjust the pressure and technique to ensure safety and comfort, providing a nurturing, supportive experience during a challenging time.

Procedure

Our trained therapist will start with a thorough consultation to understand your medical history, current treatments, and any areas of discomfort. Using gentle strokes and light pressure, we will massage your neck, shoulders, and other areas that may be experiencing tension or discomfort from the treatment. Certain areas such as the abdomen or lymph nodes may be avoided based on your condition. The therapist will also make adjustments to ensure you are comfortable throughout the session, using supports such as cushions if necessary. The treatment duration is flexible, often between 30 and 60 minutes, and is tailored to your physical and emotional well-being. Contact us today to book in.

Benefits

Pain and Symptom Relief: Oncology massage can reduce pain and discomfort associated with cancer treatments such as chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery.

Stress Reduction: The massage helps relieve emotional stress and anxiety, promoting a sense of calm and relaxation.

Improved Sleep: Many patients find that regular massage helps improve sleep patterns, which is often disrupted during cancer treatments.

Enhanced Circulation: By stimulating the lymphatic and circulatory systems, the massage can improve blood flow, reduce swelling, and support the body’s healing process.

Improved Emotional Well-being: Provides emotional support and fosters a sense of connection, which can improve mental health during cancer treatment.
