Become an Oncology Massage Therapist
Oncology Massage Training delivers high quality, in-person education for touch therapists across Australia and New Zealand. Our courses are practical, evidence informed, and designed to help you deliver safer, more responsive care so your clients feel genuinely supported.
One in two Australians will experience cancer in their lifetime. For practising therapists, oncology massage training strengthens clinical confidence, expands scope, and supports ongoing professional development. But the value often goes further than skills alone: many therapists describe a shift in how they assess, communicate, and adapt care for every client.
We teach gentle, evidence based techniques that support people affected by cancer and its treatments, and the clinical reasoning behind them. The principles you learn can also enhance your work with clients who are living with pain, fatigue, stress, lymphatic load, reduced resilience, or complex health histories.
We run in-person courses regularly across Australia and New Zealand. Browse our course programs to find the next training in your area.
“Designed for practising therapists. Delivered in-person. Grounded in evidence and clinical reasoning.”

We believe every client can benefit from the principles of oncology massage.
The skills you learn with us go far beyond cancer care, helping you refine your touch, improve comfort and safety, and adapt your treatment approach for a wider range of bodies, needs, and life stages.
