A practical book written for both health professionals and the layperson, this newly revised guide deconstructs common myths about the use of massage in cancer treatment. Reviewing literature that shows cancer to be caused by genetic mutation and the influence of hormones, the opening discussion emphasises that mechanical action such as massage does not break tumours open or cause them to spread.
The book purports that the real medical issues for massage therapists centre on ameliorating the discomfort of treatments such as chemotherapy, radiation and surgery. The topics covered include massage in hospitals, in respite care, for the dying and for exhausted carers, with appendices summarising research on oncology patients and massage.
Charts for the adjustment of massage techniques according to the treatment a patient is undergoing are also included.This new edition contains updated information and insights into massaging people affected by cancer. New chapters have been added to cover each stage of the cancer experience: treatment, recovery, survivorship, side effects from the disease and end of life.
As well, a new chapter has been added that focuses on the Pressure/Site/Positioning framework. This is the clinical framework around which the massage session is planned.Also updated is the scientific research on the effects of massage for people with cancer as well as material devoted to massaging young adult survivors, the person with breast reconstruction, cording and late effects as well as thoughts for therapists and clients who are considering the use of massage as part of a detoxification process.
Written exercises have been added for student therapists and all of those who want to participate in their own learning. As well, sample session write-ups have been included to show the reader the variety of touch modalities that can be used to for people living with cancer.
