In the journey through cancer treatment, gentle care can make all the difference.
Global research is increasingly exploring how therapeutic foot reflexology can offer supportive care during cancer treatment.
A systematic review of 26 studies involving over 2,400 patients, diagnosed with breast, lung, gastrointestinal, and blood cancers, found reflexology showed benefits over passive controls in areas like pain, quality of life, and fatigue (pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov).
Earlier findings also point to reflexologyโs ability to ease nausea, vomiting, and fatigue during chemotherapy, and to help improve sleep quality and emotional well-being
(pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov).
Although not a substitute for medical treatments, reflexology offers compassionate, evidence-informed support for patients, through gentle touch.
