Oncology Massage
Oncology massage is a specialized form of massage
therapy that is designed to meet the specific
needs of individuals who are undergoing cancer
treatment or who have a history of cancer.
According to a study by Cassileth and Vickers
(2004),
light touch massage, as taught by Oncology
Massage Training (OMT), has been found to be the
most effective form of massage therapy for people
with cancer. This type of massage is designed to
be mindful, safe, and relaxing for individuals
undergoing cancer treatment or with a history of
cancer.

Research around Oncology massage
Oncology massage is a relatively new and emerging
field of massage therapy. However, there is a
growing body of research that supports its
benefits for individuals with cancer. One study
published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology
found that oncology massage led to a reduction in
pain and fatigue among breast cancer patients
undergoing radiation therapy.
