massage and cancer symptom relief.
Massage in Cancer Care Webinar Series
Course Description:
Massage therapy is a growing part of cancer care, and skilled touch is being
welcomed into hospitals, clinics, and the daily lives of people with
cancer. In this 6-part webinar series, share the excitement about
the growing specialty of oncology massage therapy, and learn about some
important principles and practices.
Tracy Walton provides an overview of the ways massage could benefit people with

clear up some sticking points, take a fresh look at the old myth that massage
could spread cancer, and learn ways to re-educate and reassure people about

introduces resources and recommendations for further training, research, and
information. At the end of each presentation, she will answer
questions submitted live by webinar participants.
