Careful, informed, centered on the client.
Oncology massage requires intake that knows what to ask. Treatment status, line locations, and lymphedema risk — all surfaced before you touch the table.
What oncology massage therapy practice actually looks like
Stillpoint is shaped around the specifics of your work. Here's what that means in practice.

- Active treatments (chemo, radiation, immunotherapy, surgery dates)
- Port, PICC, or central-line location with last placement date
- Lymph node status (sentinel, axillary, etc.) and lymphedema risk side(s)
- Energy level and pressure tolerance for today

Frequently asked questions
How do you handle treatment-status changes?
Treatment status (active, post-active, survivorship) is a client-level field. Update it once and every future session note reflects it. Big changes auto-prompt a fresh intake review.
Can I track surgery sites and lymph node status across visits?
Yes. Surgery sites, lymph node removal locations, and current lymphedema risk side(s) live on the client profile and surface at the top of every session note.
Is Stillpoint HIPAA compliant for oncology data?
Yes — Stillpoint signs BAAs, encrypts PHI at rest and in transit, and provides a full audit log. Cancer-related intake fields are treated as PHI throughout.
