Welcome to the OMT Website!
“It is not…necessary to avoid massage the day before or after chemotherapy, assuming that the practitioner is trained to adjust their work in a way that will be safe and supportive for the client.”
- Gayle MacDonald
It’s Official…Oncology Massage Training is the very proud signatory to a contract with Austin Health in Melbourne where the first stage of the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre is due to open in mid-2012. This is an Australian first and has been the culmination of months and years of dedication from Eleanor and the OMT team.
The first OM3 and OM4 group will go through in March and April and were selected from a very keen group of experienced therapists by the OMT teaching team. A second group will be selected later in the year so if you have completed OM2 and got some experience under your belt, let us know you’re interested.
