Massage and Breast Cancer & Oncology Massage
There have been many myths in the past about Massage and Reflexology being unsafe for cancer patients. Since then the myths have challenged and over turned by evidence based research. Today, more hospitals and mainstream clinics are aware of the benefits of massage therapy and reflexology and have added it to their treatments.
Both massage and Reflexology are widely used as part of people's health maintenance. As a massage therapist and instructor, I offer different types of bodywork that support cancer patients and survivors by integrating both Western and Eastern modalities to address the symptoms and side-effects of both treatments and disease.
My goal when working with cancer patients, survivors and their family members, is to utilize the holistic approach to provide relaxation of the mind, body and spirit.
Michael trained under Eeris Kallil & Isabel Adkins, both top in the field of Oncology Bodywork.
