I am very proud to announce I have just qualified as an Oncology Massage Therapist from Susan Findlay's Oncology Massage Course. Massaging someone who is undergoing treatment for cancer or has a history of cancer is fine, it is no longer a "hands off"condition (research has proven that the myths that massage could do more harm than good are not true). Soft tissue therapy has many benefits and they remain the same for those affected by cancer - helping a client to sleep better, decreasing pain and anxiety, improving movement and providing a human "touch".
I will shortly add more information about the benefits and what to expect from a treatment to my website!
