How Do We Know it Will Help?
Our goal during every Oncology/Cancer Care Massage is to nourish the body, support internal organs and provide deep relaxation.
We do this by using gentle massage strokes, stimulate acupressure points, warm stones, reflexology, and organic oils that are full of herbs. It’s a massage that you won’t soon forget. You will leave relaxed and full of hope.
Because your body is fighting to get back to normal (homeostasis), the work is gentle which allows your body to rest and heal. A heavy-handed massage or “deep” massage would put additional demand on your body.
As one client said following her massage, “While I’m here I don’t have to be anything for anyone… I can just be.”
Give us a call today. Consultations are always free. Let us show you how oncology massage can help throughout your cancer journey and beyond.
