Touch Therapy is a gentle, non-invasive treatment developed by the Made for Life Foundation for people who have been diagnosed with cancer, are currently undergoing treatment, are recovering, or are living with cancer.

It is carefully adapted to meet you where you are, offering safe, supportive touch that respects your comfort, energy levels and individual needs.

This beautiful therapy is recognized and approved by healthcare professionals and doctors. It is designed to provide a calming, reassuring experience at a time when the body and mind can feel under strain, creating space to pause, breathe and feel cared for.

Touch Therapy can help ease anxiety and stress, encourage deep relaxation and support better sleep.

Many people find it helps them feel more settled in themselves, offering a quiet sense of grounding and comfort when everything else can feel overwhelming.

It may also help with some of the physical challenges that can come with cancer and its treatments, including pain, nausea, fatigue and the side effects of chemotherapy.

Some people also choose this therapy to support overall wellbeing, including immune function and the body’s natural healing processes.

Because the treatment is adaptable, it can be suitable for all types of cancer and for a wide range of circumstances, including during palliative or end-of-life care.

In these moments, gentle touch can offer calm, connection and a sense of peace, and people often report feeling more confident, more self-aware and more supported after a session.
