Oncology Massage
Oncology Massage is a specifically adapted massage for people with cancer, which takes into account various surgeries, types of cancer and the side affects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
It's a gentle massage that can help clients to relax which calms the nervous system down and promotes feelings of wellbeing.
As it is so gentle it's also useful for people who have sore muscles or sensitive skin. Perhaps clients who have M.E, CFS, or fibromyalgia, arthritis etc. .
