Cancer + Spa

Great news!
Cancer itself is NOT a contraindication for massage or most other spa services. 

​"Oncology Massage" is not a technique, that's why you won't see it listed on our website. The skill of Oncology Massage comes from a combination of
​ hands, minds and heart all working together in the clients best interest. 

Your body is a nice place to live. lets help make it the best it can be!

​Cancer treatments can have long-lasting effects on the body, but we're here to help. As licensed professionals, we take the time to ask the right questions to ensure each session is tailored to your unique needs. We know that every client is different and each stage of your journey will change what we do in the treatment room. There is no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to effective treatment.


Massage therapy can provide a range of benefits for cancer patients, including reducing muscle soreness, stiffness, and spasms. It promotes relaxation, improves circulation, and supports recovery and healing. This can help alleviate pain, anxiety, and depression, as well as improve sleep. For weaker or older patients, reflexology or reiki may be better suited.
​

Professional bodywork is an amazing antidote to pain and suffering.

​The #1 Way to Get the Most Out of Your Session

Effective communication with your licensed professional is key to a successful therapy session. Here are some tips to ensure that you get the most out of your experience:

• Fill out your intake form completely, or make updates if it has been a while. This will provide a strong foundation for creating an effective treatment plan or recommendations.
• Ask questions. Curious as to what your session will look like? Not too sure what to do? We are here to help! 
• If you feel uncomfortable at any point during your session, let your therapist know. Are you too hot or too cold? Is your position uncomfortable? Is the pressure too intense? Prefer the least amount of talking possible, let us know! Honest feedback allows us to make small adjustments throughout your session so you can completely relax.
• Follow up with us. If you return for another session, please inform us how you felt in the days following your last visit. This feedback will assist us in making any necessary adjustments to our current treatment plan, and may even influence future recommendations.

We do recommend speaking with your oncology team to see if your specific treatment would contraindicate services at this time.
