Cancer patients and chronic illness

Diagnosis Cancer

With a diagnosis of cancer or chronic illness, your world is often rapidly changed
and it gives a drastic turn to your life.
Not only physical complaints from the illness or the treatments and medication,
but also emotional and social problems can put people under a lot of (extra) pressure.

Most often the treatment of cancer or chronic illness is all about going to a specialist in a hospital, operation, chemo and other medical issues. But there is less attention for the emotional and social problems that come with the disease. When you "wake up" after the first shock, there are often a lot of questions, and one lives in uncertain times where hope is turning in fear and back to hope again.

What can massage do for you ?

In these periods it can be useful to be supported by special energetic or integral massage therapy. These massages can help you to keep or recover your emotional balance, and unload all
the impressions you get at the moment.
The massages are Not meant to cure the cancer or chronic illness, but to improve the quality of life. This way you become physically and emotionally "more human" again, and you are better capable (after
a while) of handling your feelings of fear, frustration or depression and to (re) gain control of yourself.
The treatment is based on healing (instead of curing) the client in a physical, emotional, mental and social way.

As I said, the massages are working deep into the body and go much further then just the physical body. Body, Mind and Soul are a unity, which means that every one of them is defined by the other two and defines the other two. The treatment will be carried out in a professional way and there is the possibility of extensive email support.
