Oncology reflexology is a gentle and non-intrusive treatment that uses reflex points on the feet corresponding to different body systems.
It is a complementary treatment and should not replace traditional medical treatments.
Many people undergoing cancer treatment use reflexology to help with their care. It is included in the complementary therapy offered at some hospitals’ oncology units and day centres and has shown excellent results. Patients report that in addition to experiencing relaxation and stress relief, they also feel better able to cope with the physical side effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
