Providing Expert Oncology Massage Education
Oncology Massage Global provides comprehensive, accessible and expert online education to therapists worldwide. Our mission is to empower therapists with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to offer safe, compassionate care to individuals affected by cancer and cancer treatment, improving their quality of life and supporting their path to wellness.
OMG (Oncology Massage Global) was established in 2017 by Eleanor Oyston to expand the awareness of Oncology Massage beyond our shores, and to establish international training programs based on medical research.
OMG courses are registered with the Society for Oncology Massage in USA, ThinkTree in the UK and Massage & Myotherapy in Australia.
We mentor skilled massage professionals and share insights gained by Eleanor’s work over the last 20 years. Awareness of the benefits of oncology massage has grown and it is now included in medical services, survivorship programs and research studies. OMG is committed to sharing knowledge, insights and resources with global massage communities.
Oncology Massage Global runs an international training program that teaches professionals how to work with clients experiencing complex health issues.
Oncology Massage is an adaptation of massage techniques and skills to consider the medical, biological and emotional changes experienced by clients with cancer and other life limiting diseases such as heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes or neurodegenerative diseases. Any person diagnosed with a life limiting illness can safely have an oncology massage. Oncology Massage is used as a complementary therapy and can lead to improvements in pain, anxiety, fatigue, insomnia, nausea and depression.
