oncology massage
Oncology Massage safely addresses the needs of a cancer patient with a specialised therapist who understands the science and pays close attention to the physical, emotional and psychological needs of the client during diagnosis, treatment, recovery, survivorship or palliative care.
It is a gentle, safe and effective massage technique that is comforting and nurturing for anyone with cancer, a history of cancer or in a fragile state of health. It is always adapted to suit the needs of, and work safely with, each client. This is a gentle, mindful treatment that helps alleviate many of the side effects of cancer treatments, including pain, fatigue, nausea and anxiety.
Oncology Massage therapists have a Diploma of Remedial Massage as well as specialised training. Tiziana Hill is a qualified Oncology Massage Therapist and is a member of Massage and Myotherapy Australia and the Reflexology Association of Australia. She has personal experience as a cancer patient and has experienced some of the side effects of treatments.
Allow up to 90 minutes for a first appointment which includes discussing your condition and needs. Follow up appointments range in time up to 60 minutes, depending on each client’s needs and energy levels.
