As October focuses our attention on breast cancer awareness, we’re reminded that spas can play a special role in caring for women coping with the devastating physical and emotional effects of the disease and its accompanying medical treatments. For those skincare and beauty care professionals who want to do more, there’s Oncology Esthetics (OE), a trademarked, advanced treatment technique offered via training certificate programs for spa professionals.
Founded in 2007 by esthetician, massage therapist, author and educator Morag Currin through her Touch for Cancer program, OE has become the leading oncology skincare training method in the world. Taught globally, it offers beauty and skincare therapists a specialized education, teaching them exactly what they need to know to treat clients with cancer: the nature of the disease, the side effects of conventional treatments, and the skills, technique and modifications they must use care for these deserving women.
Not surprisingly, the skincare products used in OE training must meet specific standards for gentleness, effectiveness and safety before being considered suitable for use in the program. They are:
