\n\t\tONCOLOGY MASSAGE FOR SUPPORT\n\t<\/h2>\n\tOncology massage is an integrative therapy and can help with symptoms experienced during and after conventional cancer treatments.
\nIt is conventional medicine and complimentary therapy working together to achieve the best possible outcome for the patient.\nPost graduate training in Oncology Massage is needed to give this very specific, light touch massage.
\nOncology Massage was found to be the most effective form of massage according to a study at the Sloan Kettering cancer centre in the USA.\n

Since then Oncology Massage has been introduced in Australia, and some hospitals like the Olivia Newton John Cancer and Wellness Centre \u2013 Austin Hospital Melbourne and O\u2019Brian Lifehouse in Sydney now have qualified Oncology Massage Therapists on staff.<\/p>\n
