Slow, gentle and effective
People often ask if massage is safe for cancer? And the short answer is “Yes.” Michelle is a trained oncology massage therapist and is able to provide you a safe and effective massage at any stage of the cancer journey: before, during and after treatment, in remission or at the end of life.
Oncology Massage may be quite different to your usual understanding and experience of massage. It offers a very gentle and simple form of touch with long, slow, soothing strokes and holds. This allows you connect with your body in a kind and healing way and people are often pleasantly surprised at the depth of the experience. This type of massage is also suitable any time your body is in a fragile state.
Michelle trained at Oncology Massage Training in Australia. Her training covered the full spectrum of cancer-related issues: the physical consequences of cancer, the side effects of various treatments and the emotional considerations involved.
