Oncology Massage Therapy – Summit’s team includes massage therapists who are specially trained in oncology massage. Massage and other gentle forms of bodywork are safe and effective therapies  for the physical and emotional discomforts that can accompany cancer treatment.

The use of oncology massage therapy has become more common in recent years as a way to reduce pain, anxiety, and nausea. Research suggests that stress-reduction programs can  help cancer patients cope with the side effects of treatment and improve quality of life after treatment.

Acupuncture – Acupuncture can help ease the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation, such as nausea, fatigue, pain, and anxiety. Our highly trained acupuncture practitioners work directly with care teams to coordinate care.
