Massage Therapists on the Front Lines of the Battle Against Skin Cancer

Massage therapists cannot diagnose skin cancer, but they can serve to help detect issues early. Because massage therapists come in direct contact with the skin, and most people do not check their own skin for signs of cancer, therapists may be able to detect these signs early. If a massage therapist does notice something, a spot for example, they can then inform the client and suggest that the client follows up with a dermatologist. Early detection of skin cancer is the best precursor to more successful treatment.
