Why It Matters

Statistics show that 1 in 2 of us will be affected by cancer in our lifetime. Yet many people with a cancer diagnosis have been told they can’t access massage, beauty treatments, spa therapies, or physiotherapy — because of a long-standing myth:

“Massage spreads cancer.”

The Role of Touch in Cancer Care

A cancer diagnosis can be life-altering. It often brings emotional overwhelm, physical exhaustion, and a sense of isolation. Many people find even close friends and family members hesitate to offer physical contact — not wanting to cause harm or unsure of what’s safe.

Oncology massage offers gentle, intentional, human touch, helping to:

• Ease pain, fatigue, or anxiety

• Reduce feelings of isolation

• Support rest and relaxation

• Create a short escape from the emotional toll of illness

• Reconnect the body and mind

• Honour where someone is in their journey

This treatment is tailored entirely to your needs — physically, emotionally, and energetically.

My Approach

To safely adapt treatments for people:

• Undergoing chemotherapy or radiotherapy

• Living with or beyond cancer

• In remission or palliative care

• At any stage of diagnosis or recovery

I create a calm, supportive space where your experience is respected and honoured. You are in control of how the session goes — and everything is adjusted to suit how you’re feeling on the day.

Duration & Booking

Your current health and stage of treatment will guide how long your session is. We’ll discuss this together at the start of your appointment.

A Final Note

This kind of massage isn’t widely known — and very few practitioners are fully trained in it. But it can make a world of difference. Whether you’re seeking comfort, relief, or simply space to feel cared for… you’re welcome here.
