Massage Therapy indication or contraindication for Hodgkin's Disease? |
Massage Therapy indication or contraindication for Hodgkin's Disease? According to Pathology for Massage Therapists Hodgkin's Disease is contraindicated because it is a form of cancer and massage can help spread it. Because the immune system is decreased you run a danger of exposure to minor infections. Any trained therapist would have you provide a doctors note stating that it was ok for you to receive a massage. Even then, I would locate a therapist who is trained to work with oncology patients, there is special training in this field. Good Luck. Since it is a lymphatic cancer and massage therapy main goal is to move the lymph fluid.... I would always refer to the clients oncologist. |
