Oncology Massage with Manual Lymphatic Drainage

Oncology Massage is a special type of massage developed specifically for cancer patients. Cancer patients have unique needs which must be addressed to make sure that a massage is beneficial to their health. I focus my attention on creating a gentle, nurturing environment for you to relax into.

Manual Lymphatic Drainage

Lymphatic Drainage Therapy consists of light, gentle strokes to the lymph to rhythmically move the lymph through the body, especially swollen areas of the body, relieving pressure and enhancing the functioning of the immune system, and carry waste products out.

As both a preventative and remedial technique, MLD can be used for a wide range of purposes including faster recovery from injury, reduction of swelling and discomfort from pregnancy, and strengthened resistance to illness.

Benefits: Improvement of immune function; reduce swelling due to injury, illness or surgery;  assists with healing of scar tissue; assists with reducing bloating, inflammation and tightness; promotes better sleep.

Facial Massage w/Gua Sha & Lymphatic Drainage

Facial Massage includes massage on your face, neck, shoulders and scalp. Minimal, if any, oil is used and is great for increased blood circulation, decreased puffiness and encourage lymph drainage. This service consists of massage techniques on the face to help relieve tension in the face, neck and head and can help drain sinuses. It includes Gua Sha and lymphatic drainage. THIS IS NOT A FACIAL.

Sound Healing Massage

Sound healing is an alternative therapy that uses specific sounds and vibrations to promote health and well-being, often through practices like sound baths and music therapy. The sound vibrations of the sound healing instruments penetrate deep into the tissue. This can improve blood circulation and metabolism, regulate muscle tension and deeply stimulate the tissue. Moreover, regeneration and repair mechanisms are stimulated. Sound healing is both activating and relaxing – so it also has a refreshing effect.

Cupping - Add on

Cupping therapy is an ancient form of alternative medicine in which a therapist puts special cups on your skin for a few minutes to create suction. People get it for many purposes, including to help with pain, inflammation, blood flow, relaxation and well-being, and as a type of deep-tissue massage.

Cupping can be included in your massage.  It can be requested, or I may suggest to have some done on specific areas.

Gua Sha - Add On

Gua sha is a traditional Chinese medicine practice that involves scraping the skin with a smooth-edged tool to stimulate blood flow, reduce inflammation, and promote healing. It can offer various benefits like improved circulation, pain relief, and reduced puffiness. 

Gua Sha can be included in your massage.  It can be requested, or I may suggest to have some done on specific areas.
