While most cancer treatment focuses on what is happening inside our bodies, little to no conventional treatments focus on what is happening above and in between our cellular levels. Massage therapy has long been known to provide relief from pain, stiffness, aches, and fatigue. Massage therapy for cancer patients is especially helpful because it tackles many of the side effects of cancer treatment head-on.

Although at Revivorship everyone is welcome to improve their health through our massage therapy techniques, cancer survivors have several unique needs when it comes to massage. Specially educated and skilled massage therapists understand what is needed in and by the body especially after surgeries and radiation - which may cause scarring and sensitivities. The unraveling of the damage these therapies and diseases may have created takes time. It is a gradual process that can result in enormous progress.

Extensive knowledge of neuropathy, lymphatic flow, and lymphedema are important in post-cancer massage work. Our massage therapists and certified lymphedema therapists are specially trained and have the knowledge and skill to meet you and your body just where you are on your healing journey.

There’s no need to suffer. We can help you overcome the painful side effects of cancer treatment in a healthy, healing way provided by those of us who have fought the cancer battle already. If you or someone you know is struggling with the side effects of cancer treatment, we encourage you to contact us at Revivorship™ today to discuss how massage therapy for cancer patients can help you.

"I had such severe numbing in my feet and hands that buttoning my own shirts was not possible. I could not feel the buttons in my fingers. It was embarrassing and frustrating to me to have to ask my wife to button me as if I were a small child. Massage therapy returned the circulation to my hands, arms and legs. Each time I went I could feel a little more and a little more. Before long I was buttoning on my own again."
