🌿 Oncology Massage Training – New Date Added: 27th September
Oncology Massage provides gentle, restorative support for clients during and after cancer treatment. With specialist training, you can help ease discomfort, calm the nervous system, reduce stress, and offer safe, nurturing touch at a time when it’s needed most. This course is designed to help therapists feel confident, informed, and fully prepared to work with oncology clients in a compassionate, professional way.
🌸 Course Structure
Start with our comprehensive online learning module, giving you a deep understanding of cancer, treatment side effects, adaptations, and safe practice.
You’ll then join us for a full day of hands‑on training, working with real clients who have experienced cancer and personally benefited from Oncology Massage. Their lived experiences offer invaluable insight, helping you refine your approach and build confidence in your practical skills.
🌼 Course Details
📅 Date: 27th September
📍 Location: The Wellness Academy, Gatcombe, Isle of Wight
💷 Price: £340
🎓 Prerequisite: Level 3 Body Massage qualification
🌱 What You’ll Gain
Confidence adapting massage safely for oncology clients
A deeper understanding of the emotional and physical needs of those affected by cancer
Real client interaction to strengthen your hands‑on skills
A powerful addition to your professional toolkit
The ability to offer meaningful, supportive care at any stage of the cancer journey
💛 Oncology Massage Isn’t Scary — It’s Supportive, Safe & Deeply Nurturing
Oncology massage isn’t complicated or “only for advanced therapists”. It’s a gentle, confidence‑building way to support clients living with cancer. Massage doesn’t spread cancer — it soothes it. With the right training, you can safely work with clients during treatment, ease anxiety, reduce fatigue, and offer comfort when life feels overwhelming.
This specialised approach isn’t about doing more — it’s about knowing the right adaptations so every touch is safe, supportive, and deeply nurturing. If you’ve ever worried about “getting it wrong”, this training gives you the clarity, confidence, and skills you’ve been waiting for.

✨ NADA July Results – What an Incredible Month! ✨
July’s NADA group sessions have officially wrapped up, and the results have been absolutely amazing.
Many of our clients joined us feeling extremely stressed — scoring themselves around 1/10 on their wellbeing scale (with 1 being very stressed and 10 being feeling good). After just a few sessions, we saw those scores rise all the way to 8/9, showing calmer minds, reduced anxiety, better sleep, and a real sense of emotional balance.
The transformations have blown us away.
🌿 Why NADA Works So Well
The NADA protocol supports:
• Reduced stress & anxiety
• Improved sleep
• Emotional regulation
• Feeling grounded and centred
• Support through overwhelm and busy minds
Seeing these benefits unfold week by week has been truly inspiring.
💚 Monthly NADA Group Sessions Are Starting!
After such powerful results, we’re excited to announce that NADA group sessions will now run monthly.
🗓 First Thursday of every month
⏰ 6:30pm
📍 The Wellness Barn
💷 £30
✨ Includes NADA, guided meditation with breathwork, herbal teas & a relaxed chat afterwards
Our next session is:
✨ Thursday 3rd September
If you’d like to continue your journey or join us for the first time, we’d love to welcome you.
And for those who prefer one‑to‑one support, we also offer individual NADA sessions at The Wellness Barn as a standard treatment.
A calmer nervous system is closer than you think.
Nearly 1 in 2 people in the UK will face a cancer diagnosis in their lifetime.
So many clients are navigating cancer — almost 1 in 2 here in the UK.
They’re often the people who need gentle, informed, compassionate touch the most.
On 27th September, I’m teaching a full day of Oncology Massage training, with in‑depth online theory to prepare you for safe, confident practice.
Course fee: £340
