Touch Therapies
Touch therapies can provide relief from pain for people with lymphoedema (Manual Lymphatic Drainage) and can help to relieve stress and aid relaxation and wellbeing.
Manual Lymph Drainage
Manual lymphatic drainage (lymphoedema massage) is a gentle massage that helps to drain lymphatic fluid from areas of the body affected by lymphoedema. Lymphoedema is a painful swelling in a part of the body that can affect people with cancer following surgery. Cois Nore offer the treatment to clients who are experiencing this painful condition.
Oncology Massage
Oncology massage is a light gentle massage that helps the body to relax. It is designed for people with cancer to aid relaxation and to alleviate stress. Reducing stress levels can help to support the immune system and can help clients to manage their symptoms during and after cancer treatment.
Reflexology
Reflexology is the application of gentle pressure to parts of the feet. It aims to ease stress and promote relaxation. Reflexology can also stimulate the lymphatic system and enhance pain management.
