How Massage Therapy Helps Cancer Survivors
If you’ve never considered massage therapy as part of your recovery, you’re not alone. Many people don’t realize just how much it can help. Medical massage offers several benefits, including:
Pain Relief: Massage can help relieve the muscle pain and tension that often come with cancer treatments like chemotherapy and radiation.
Improved Mobility: Treatments can cause stiffness or limit the range of motion over time. Our massage sessions work to restore flexibility and ease movement.
Emotional Support: The mental strain of cancer can be just as challenging as the physical. Massage therapy offers a space to relax, breathe, and feel cared for.
We’re here to make sure that you feel supported throughout this journey.
