Oncology massage will always have a special place in my heart. Serving those that are going through their healing journey is a honor and a privilege.

Over the years, I have had the privilege of working with many individuals on their healing journeys. Oncology massage holds a special place in my heart, and I have a deep respect for the therapists who dedicate themselves to this specialized field.


After careful consideration and personal experience, I have made the decision not to offer oncology massage to individuals currently undergoing traditional cancer treatments such as chemotherapy and radiation. This choice comes from a place of self-awareness and self-care.


I have a very sensitive system, and despite wearing gloves and following proper protocols, I have experienced reactions in the past when working with clients receiving traditional oncology treatments. To honor my health and maintain the quality of care I provide, I no longer accept clients who are actively receiving chemotherapy or radiation.


However, I deeply believe that everyone deserves compassionate, safe, and specialized touch. I am more than happy to refer clients to qualified oncology massage therapists who have the advanced training and experience needed to safely support individuals during traditional cancer treatment. If you are currently receiving chemotherapy or radiation, I encourage you to seek out a therapist in your area who is specifically trained in oncology massage.


I continue to work with clients who are pursuing non-traditional or holistic treatments, as well as post-operative patients who have completed their traditional treatments and are in the recovery phase. My goal is always to offer safe, appropriate, and deeply respectful care within my professional and personal boundaries.


Thank you for understanding and for trusting me to be transparent about my scope of practice and personal limitations. Your well-being matters deeply to me and so does maintaining personal healthy and sustainable boundaries.


With care and support,

Suzan (Susan) Walker LMT
