Awareness Month Part 1
l NECK & HEAD CANCER AWARENESS l
💚 PART 1
July is Neck and Head Cancer Awareness Month.
Throughout this month, we'll be sharing information to help increase awareness and understanding of head and neck cancers and the important role that healthcare professionals, including oncology massage therapists, can play in supporting people affected by these diagnoses.
Neck and head cancers are not one single disease. They are a group of cancers that occur in areas including the mouth, throat, nose, sinuses, salivary glands and thyroid.
While some types are more common than others, each person's experience and treatment journey can be very different.
As therapists, expanding our knowledge helps us provide informed, person centred care and better understand the experiences of the people we support.
