Massage for Cancer Patients
Cancer massage can help to eliminate the harmful toxins that flood the body during treatments such as chemotherapy or medication. Massage therapy is highly beneficial in every stage of the fight against cancer.
The benfits of massage for cancer patients include relief from fatigue and nausea, improved blood circulation, and equalized blood pressure. It is recommended that a patient consult their physician if considering cancer massage therapy.
Thai Poultice Massage
The Herbal Poultice treatment utilizes warmed muslin poultices of Thai and Chinese
herbs that are steamed and applied directly to the body in a kneading action.
This traditional treatment has been practiced to
soothe muscle tension and stiffness on the key areas. Heat and herbs are absorbed by the body
to help to reduce aches and pains, increase lymphatic drainage and condition the skin.
I have lived with Tinnitus for more than 30 years. The noise in my ears never went away - at night the sounds became louder. After several visits to doctors over the years, I pretty well had given up.
