| HEAD & NECK CANCER AWARENESS |

July 27th is Head and Neck Cancer Awareness day. A time to shine a light on a group of cancers that often go unnoticed until later stages.

Head and neck cancers can affect areas such as the mouth, throat, voice box, nasal cavity, and salivary glands. It is important to note that early signs are sometimes mistaken for minor, everyday issues.

Awareness matters. Understanding the signs, encouraging regular checkups, and supporting those navigating diagnosis and treatment all play a role in improving outcomes.

At OMT, we’re proud to support practitioners who work with clients through every stage of treatment, including those affected by head and neck cancers — offering gentle, informed care through Oncology Massage.

Take a moment this month to learn more, raise awareness, and share this information with your community. Every voice counts.

We are often asked at Seddon Therapies what the difference is between Remedial and Relaxation Massage.

They may often look and feel a bit the same, but the quick answer is that Remedial Massage focuses on a specific area of concern, whether it be a sore, achey or just a tight area. Our therapists will do an assessment of what may be causing the problem and tailor a treatment to get you back on track. These treatments have a measurable outcome via increased range of motion, difference in your level of discomfort or a change/improvement in your posture.

Relaxation Massages may sometimes involve the same techniques but are aimed at relaxation of your mind, body and overall nervous system. While these will sometimes provide added benefits of easing that sore neck or making your back feel better, they won't include an assessment of the cause of your discomfort and therefore do not provide measurable outcomes for health insurance rebates.

All of our therapists hold a Diploma of Remedial Massage or are qualified Myotherapists. We can include a little mix of this and that in our treatments. Where therapists are trained in other modalities such as dry needling and cupping, these may also be incorporated into a session to get best results.

We have received a few enquiries lately from clients curious about using manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) for weight loss. The quick answer is, yes it can help, but not how you might think.

While it doesn’t burn or remove fat it can reduce fluid retention and might make you feel "lighter". It can also reduce bloating or puffiness. It can improve gut motility: For some people, it helps relieve sluggish digestion or constipation.

It helps to reduce inflammation, which can make your body feel less stiff and swollen.

By helping you feel better, manual lymphatic drainage boosts motivation. Many people feel refreshed or revitalized after MLD and become more inclined to make healthier lifestyle choices.
