Oncology Massage
Oncology massage is a specialised form of massage therapy designed for people who have been diagnosed with cancer, are currently undergoing treatment, recovering after treatment or living with a history of cancer. Treatments are carefully adapted using modified techniques, positioning and pressure to support comfort, relaxation and overall wellbeing.
For oncology massage, please book at least 1 day in advance. Our team will contact you prior to your appointment to discuss your treatment needs and ensure the session is suitable for you.
Please note that treatment will not be provided if you are experiencing a fever or feeling unwell on the day of your appointment.
Our clinic is accessible via stairs only and may not be suitable for wheelchair users or clients with limited mobility or difficulty walking.
Unlike regular massage, oncology massage takes into consideration the physical and emotional changes that may occur during and after cancer treatment. Every session is tailored depending on the client’s health history, treatment stage, energy levels and individual needs.
At Lannaluxe Massage & Wellness in Albion Brisbane, oncology massage treatments are provided by a qualified massage therapist with training in oncology massage care. Treatments are designed to provide a calm, supportive and professional environment where clients can relax safely and comfortably.
