I offer various Complementary Therapy options for someone on a Cancer Journey that can help with the side effects from Chemotherapy and Radiation Therapy including Pain, Nausea, Fatigue, Anxiety and Depression. These options include; Oncology Massage, Reiki, Reflexology and Guided Imagery.
ONCOLOGY MASSAGE – The use of very, very light touch massage provided by a TRAINED LICENSED MASSAGE THERAPIST customized to the client’s current healing phase and their current treatment plan. Always consider the credentials of the Massage Therapist prior to receiving massage.
- Post Surgery and Hospital Stay Benefits:
- Post Radiation and Chemo-therapy Benefits:
- Promote Emotional Benefits:
*Note: There are a few precautions for cancer patients seeking massage therapy. An important one concerns the risk of metastasis or spread of cancer cells. Recent research does not support the earlier belief that massage should be avoided altogether because of the possibility that it might spread the cancer. However there are certain general precautions to keep in mind. For example, massage should be avoided completely around the site of a tumor, or where a tumor has been recently removed. In some cases, Therapeutic Touch, Reiki or Reflexology may be recommended substitutes during specific healing phases or depending on the type of cancer.
A Physician referral should always be required and ALWAYS see a TRAINED, LICENSED MASSAGE THERAPIST.
Kelly Haywiser is fully trained in Oncology Massage and requires an extensive Intake form be completed as well as a physican referral form (which she provides.)
Kelly is also available for Quality - End of Life sessions in cases when needed.
