Understanding the client’s cancer journey

Back to courses

This masterclass is not about fixing, diagnosing, or treating illness; it’s about holding space, creating ease, and offering a moment of peace. Whether seated, reclining, or receiving gentle hand or foot holds, the client is always in control, heard, and supported. It is a therapeutic approach to supporting clients with cancer, trauma and life-limiting conditions.

We will teach you a deeply nurturing and restorative treatment designed to support those experiencing trauma or living with cancer and other life-limiting conditions. Rooted in the philosophy of presence, compassion, and intuitive touch, this approach focuses not on technique but on connection, comfort, and calm.

This one-day masterclass offers therapists the opportunity to learn how to adapt their approach to provide safe, respectful, and emotionally supportive treatments for clients facing serious health challenges.

You will learn:

The ethos and intention behind the approach
How to adapt touch for those experiencing cancer, fatigue, pain, or medical intervention
The emotional and energetic considerations when working with life-limiting conditions
Practical techniques for delivering a deeply relaxing, comforting experience
Communication skills for working with sensitivity and clarity
Treatment positioning for comfort, dignity, and ease
Self-care and boundaries when working in emotionally sensitive settings
What you’ll receive:
A full-day in-person workshop with expert tuition and supervised practice, and the opportunity to work with clients experiencing trauma
Online pre-reading and Practitioner manual with guidance and treatment flow
Ongoing email support for follow-up questions or client queries
