Oncology Treatments at Visions Spa Salon

With cancer statistics on the rise, we felt it was very important for our esthetics team to undergo specialized training and certification to treat compromised skin. They completed certification in Clinical Oncology Esthetics® and expanded our menu to serve individuals with, or recovering from, cancer. The certification, earned through Clinical Oncology Esthetics® training facilitated by Touch For Cancer, prepares professional estheticians to provide safe, personalized spa treatments to individuals with health-challenged skin.
Through Clinical Oncology Esthetics® Visions Spa Salon Esthetics Team underwent extensive training in understanding how cancer and therapy treatments affect the body at the dermal and lymphatic level. The program explored the side effects of cancer therapies, how those are further compounded by various medications and the importance of proper sanitation to support weakened immune systems. Certification also required our staff learn how to perform gentle, yet effective protocols using compatible skin care ingredients.

Beyond keeping our company practice on the cutting-edge, this certification will allow us to safely serve a new, and very deserving, base of individuals with health challenged skin. Our goal is that through the power of the esthetic touch, we can provide a soothing escape for individuals battling cancer." "Estheticians work with the largest organ on the human body – the skin," said Morag Currin, founder of Touch for Cancer. "Understanding how to safely and effectively treat the skin, particularly when it is challenged by cancer is paramount to the psychological and physical care of the client."
