Mind & Body Health Care Services

At Philani we offer Osteopathic techniques that can assist cancer patients with pain, emotional care and relaxation.

• Craniosacral therapy is a gentle hands-on treatment that may provide relief from a variety of symptoms including headaches, neck pain and side effects of cancer treatment among many others.
• Visceral Manipulation is a technique that helps to bring ease to the organs such as liver, kidneys, spleen, lungs and intestines.
• Soft Tissue and Skeletal Techniques: A gentle soft tissue release and skeletal alignment encourages relaxation in the body, promoting the release of oxytocin and endorphins, chemicals released from the brain that naturally help to relieve pain, reduce stress and improve the sense of well-being.
