Benefits of Oncology Massage

Massage is a very beneficial therapy for the mind and body. It can be used to provide relief from pain and to rejuvenate the body. There are different types of massages serving different purposes. Massage is also used to support other treatments of chronic diseases. One such massage is Oncology massage. It is a specialized massage that is suitable for those patients that are either diagnosed with cancer or recovering it. It helps the patients to calm their mind and feel relaxed.

Oncology massage vs traditional massage

Before going for oncology massage, you should be known that there is a huge difference between oncology massage and traditional massage. So, you must understand your need and then select a massage accordingly.

Oncology massage is performed through light touch along with slow and steady movements. During oncology massage, therapists focus on the central nervous system to facilitate the body to relax.

Let’s have a look at different benefits of oncology massage:

Physical benefits

The central nervous system of cancer patients is always at high alert because of the stress and anxiety that they face during treatment. So, the body forgets the actual feeling of being relaxed. Sometimes, patients even can’t understand their state of stress and anxiety. In such cases, oncology massage works well to relax the central nervous system thereby providing space and time to the body to heal and fight with cancer. Oncology massage also involves finger and toes massage, which helps nerve endings to relax and ease pain and tingling.

Oncology massage increases the ability of a patient in tolerating exhausting cancer treatment. It facilitates better sleep, lessens the headaches, reduces the after-effects of chemotherapy, and lowers the stress and anxiety.

Emotional and spiritual benefits

Oncology massage helps patients to get a positive view of their disease and regain their dignity. It helps the patients to release their emotions and enjoy a feeling of being cared and pampered. The emotional support that oncology massage provides to patients increases their ability to fight dangerous diseases.

Cancer patients feel so much emotional support after oncology massage that it helps them to stay away from depression. Oncology massage also helps in creating a sense of well-being. It improves the mood of the patient and gives them time to be relaxed during such a stressful period in their lives.

Improves digestion and circulation

Disturbed digestion and improper circulation are the most common issues surrounding cancer patients post heavy medications and medical processes. Oncology massage helps the body in absorbing nutrients better and it even improves circulation.

Post-surgical healing

Post-surgical massage helps in healing the wounds during and after surgery by bringing new blood to the area and promoting new cell growth.

Is massage safe for cancer patients?

There is always a huge confusion among cancer patients whether they should go for massage or not. The answer is YES. Oncology massage is the safest massage for cancer patients with lots of benefits. It is a light and relaxing massage that can be given to cancer patients at every stage of cancer. Therapists are always extra careful while providing this massage. They do not work on the tumor or the treatment sites in order to avoid any discomfort or pressure. According to a study, it is proved that muscles and soft tissue massage do not spread cancer.
