Services
Oncology Massage
Specialized massage therapy adapted for cancer patients addresses physical symptoms and emotional stress during treatment. This modality helps reduce anxiety, pain, and fatigue while improving sleep quality and immune function. Our therapists use gentle techniques that accommodate treatment side effects and surgical recovery needs.
Lymphatic Drainage
Gentle rhythmic massage stimulates lymph fluid movement to enhance immune function and reduce swelling. This technique benefits chronic fatigue, autoimmune conditions, and post-surgical recovery by improving circulation and toxin removal. Sessions focus on specific lymph node clusters to optimize drainage efficiency.
Myofascial Release
Targeted pressure techniques release fascial restrictions causing pain and limited mobility. This therapy addresses adhesions from injuries, surgeries, or chronic strain by restoring tissue elasticity and joint function. Sessions combine sustained pressure with movement to achieve lasting structural improvements.
Thai Yoga Massage
Combines acupressure and passive stretching to improve flexibility and energy flow. Practiced on a massage table with clients fully clothed, this modality enhances circulation, reduces muscle tension, and promotes mental relaxation through rhythmic compression techniques.
Active Isolated Stretch
Gentle stretching protocol improves flexibility and joint mobility through 2-second holds repeated 8-10 times. This method safely increases range of motion for all ages and physical conditions while enhancing circulation and reducing muscular tension.

Questions
What should I expect during my first oncology massage session?
Your initial session will include a brief health history review followed by customized massage techniques addressing your specific treatment needs and physical condition.
How do I prepare for a lymphatic drainage massage appointment?
Arrive hydrated and wear comfortable clothing. The session focuses on specific lymph node areas to optimize fluid movement and immune function.
What are your cancellation policies?
We require 24-hour notice for cancellations to avoid full session charges. Late arrivals will receive abbreviated treatment based on remaining appointment time.
Do you accept insurance for massage therapy services?
We provide documentation for potential insurance reimbursement but do not bill insurance directly. Check with your provider about out-of-network benefits.
What makes myofascial release different from regular massage?
This specialized technique targets connective tissue restrictions using sustained pressure rather than general muscle manipulation to achieve structural realignment and pain relief.
