Blood Cancer Awareness Month – Healing Beyond the Diagnosis

September is Blood Cancer Awareness Month—a time to honor those navigating leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma. While conventional treatments are critical, complementary therapies like massage and Reiki can offer profound support during this journey.

Reiki has been shown to reduce pain, anxiety, and fatigue in cancer patients, improving overall quality of life. Massage therapy, when adapted for oncology, can ease muscle tension, promote relaxation and offer emotional comfort. According to CancerChoices.org, Reiki recipients undergoing chemotherapy reported better function and less stress, even in advanced stages.

These therapies are non-invasive and safe, making them ideal companions to medical

treatment. If you or a loved one is facing blood cancer, consider integrating Reiki or gentle massage into your care plan. At In Touch Well-being, we offer compassionate, tailored support to help you feel whole again.
