Bone cancer and massage

Does anyone know if you have bone cancer can you have massage, if so is there a specific massage

to help with the pain , ie gentle or hot stones ?  or is it advisable not to have it at all?

  • Welcome to Cancer Chat, jowhy. 

    I spotted your question about whether it's OK to have massages if you have bone cancer, and saw some information on our site that I thought might be of help: Massage therapy. It does say that you should always talk to your doctor or clinical nurse specialist before using any type of massage therapy offered commercially, so do have a chat with your doctor and see if they can give you the go-ahead. 

    Perhaps some other friendly forum members who have more direct experience of this will be along soon to share their experiences. In the meantime, keep in touch and let us know how you get on!

    Best wishes,
