Reflexology for Cancer Support
Compassionate Reflexology for Your Cancer Journey
Tomoko is a qualified & experienced reflexologist specialising in supportive cancer care in Yeovil. Former volunteer at St Margaret's Hospice, now practising at Nine Springs Natural Health Clinic. Gentle, safe sessions to ease side effects and promote well-being.
You Are More Than Your Diagnosis.
Let Tomoko Support Your Whole Well-Being.
A cancer diagnosis can make you feel like your body is no longer your own. Between appointments, treatments, and side effects, it's easy to feel overwhelmed.
Tomoko's practice is dedicated to providing a safe, gentle haven where you can reconnect with your body in a positive way.
She specialises in using reflexology not as a cure, but as a powerful complementary therapy to help you manage the physical and emotional challenges of cancer, helping you feel more in control and supported every step of the way.
How Can Reflexology Support You?
As a qualified reflexologist with specific experience in oncology care, Tomoko focuses on helping you:
Reduce Anxiety & Stress: Quiet the "noise" and find a deep state of relaxation.
Manage Treatment Side Effects: Alleviate nausea, fatigue, and general discomfort.
Ease Pain & Discomfort: Support your body's natural ability to find comfort.
Improve Sleep Quality: Promote restful sleep, which is essential for healing.
Restore Emotional Balance: Offer a space for peace and emotional release through caring, professional touch.
"Reflexology was my oasis of calm during a stormy year of chemo. I always left my session feeling lighter and more able to cope." – A.G., Former Patient
Why Choose Tomoko?
Your Safety and Comfort Are Her Priority.
Not all reflexology is the same when you have a cancer diagnosis. Tomoko's approach is built on a foundation of knowledge, experience, and utmost caution.
Experienced & Qualified in Oncology Care: She is not only a qualified reflexologist, but she has also undertaken specific training to work safely with cancer patients.
Gentle, Adaptive Techniques: Every session is tailored to your unique needs on that specific day. Tomoko adjusts pressure and avoids specific reflex points based on your diagnosis, treatment phase, and any precautions like low blood counts or lymphoedema.
A Trusted Part of the Yeovil Community: Tomoko is deeply committed to her community. She previously volunteered her services at St Margaret's Hospice in Yeovil, providing comfort to patients and their families. She understands the hospice environment and the profound need for compassionate care.
Collaborative Approach: Tomoko fully respects and supports your medical treatment. She is happy to communicate with your oncology team (with your permission) to ensure fully integrated care.
Your Treatment, Your Way: The Reflexology Process
1. The Connection Call: We start with a confidential conversation to discuss your situation, needs, and any medical considerations. This ensures reflexology is right for you at this time.
2. Your First Session: Held in the tranquil setting of the Nine Springs Natural Health Clinic in Yeovil, our first session includes a detailed consultation followed by a gentle reflexology treatment. This is a time for you to relax completely.
3. Ongoing Support: We will work together to create a plan that supports you through your treatment and into recovery, whether you need weekly sessions or occasional "top-ups."
Ready to Take a Step Towards Comfort?
You don't have to navigate this path alone. If you are seeking a gentle, non-invasive therapy to support your well-being during or after cancer treatment, Tomoko is here to help.
