Oncology Massage in Worcester
Specialised massage support for people living with or recovering from cancer, provided by a fully certified oncology massage therapist. Gentle, safe and adapted to your individual health considerations, with a focus on comfort, relaxation and nervous system regulation.
Free initial 30-minute consultation. Market Hall, The Shambles, Worcester WR1 2RF.
Touch that respects where you are
Oncology massage is massage adapted for people affected by cancer, at any stage: during treatment, after surgery, in recovery or living long-term with the condition. It is not a treatment for cancer. It is a way of offering safe, comforting touch at a time when the body is often handled clinically and rarely gently.
Shiani is fully certified in oncology massage. That training matters because pressure, positioning, duration and the areas worked all need to be adjusted around chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery sites, lymph node removal, ports and fatigue. Every session begins with a careful conversation about your current treatment and how you are feeling that day.
Sessions take place at our studio in the Market Hall on The Shambles, Worcester. For those who prefer to be treated at home, home visits are available for oncology massage only. A call-out fee applies.

Meet the whole teamCommon questions about oncology massage in Worcester
Is massage safe during cancer treatment?
Oncology massage is specifically adapted to be safe alongside treatment, which is why certification matters. We ask you to let your oncology team know you are receiving massage, and we follow any guidance they give.
Do you offer home visits?
Yes, for oncology massage only, for those who prefer treatment in their own home. A call-out fee applies. Please mention it when you get in touch.
Is oncology massage a treatment for cancer?
No. It is a complementary, non-clinical therapy focused on comfort, relaxation and wellbeing. It does not replace medical care.
Can I book if I have had lymph nodes removed?
Yes. Lymph node removal is one of the situations oncology massage training covers, and technique and pressure are adjusted accordingly. Tell us at your consultation.
How do I arrange a session?
Message us on WhatsApp and we will arrange a time to talk through your situation before booking. There is no pressure to proceed.
