We are Northwestern Medicine Living Well Cancer Resources
Our Mission: Living Well exists to provide compassionate care that empowers, encourages, supports and provides hope to cancer patients and their families.
Our Purpose: Our unwavering commitment is to ensure people facing cancer feel empowered with knowledge, strengthened by action and sustained by the supportive community created by Living Well.
Our Focus: Living Well’s focus is to help cancer patients and their caregivers learn vital skills that enable them to regain control, reduce isolation and enhance their quality of life.
Living Well's Massage Therapy program is designed to provide gentle touch relaxation massage. Studies have shown that massage helps with the well-being, stress, anxiety and depression in an individual as they go through cancer and its treatment (American Cancer Society, 2016b).
Living Well is looking for a massage therapist for our Warrenville location to do massages on site for a few hours a week, as well as spend a few hours a month (typically the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month) providing chairside hand massages to patients going through treatment at the Northwestern Medicine Cancer Center. We are flexible with hours and willing to work with you!
