Massage Therapy for Cancer Patients
Typically a light touch massage, patients may advance to a more firm, medium or heavy pressure massage depending upon his or her comfort.
Massage therapy for the cancer patient helps integrate the mind, body, emotions and spirit through a calming and caring touch. Its profound effect on the patient releases endorphins that enhance the feelings of well-being and personal harmony.
Massage may diminish stress, tension, pain, nausea and anxiety, resulting in improved functions such as sleep patterns, respiration, circulation and digestion. |
