Understanding and support

Tumour pressure pain: you deserve straight answers.

Your care team leads your pain plan. This page explains what we know, what we do not claim, and the questions to take to them.

Where we stand

What we do and do not claim

Relief does not have to mean cure. Easing pain is an important part of cancer care, and your cancer team can discuss options to help. We do not claim that a massage gun relieves tumour pressure pain. Cancer Research UK advises people with cancer to avoid very deep massage and speak to their cancer doctor or specialist nurse before trying massage therapy.

On massage guns

We do not claim that a massage gun relieves tumour pressure pain, and a massage gun should never be used on or near a tumour.

On compression

We do not claim that Recovapro Air treats lymphoedema; specialist guidance comes first.

On everything else

If a product page anywhere suggests a device treats cancer-related pain, that wording is wrong and we want to fix it. Tell us and we will.

Your team first

Comfort is a conversation

Questions worth asking your care team

  • What is driving my pain, and which options does that rule in or out?
  • Is gentle massage or compression safe anywhere on my body right now?
  • Who should I call first if the pain changes or wakes me at night?

Specialist palliative and pain teams adjust plans quickly. A change in pain is a reason to call them, not to wait for the next appointment.

RecovaSmart

More than a pain score.

We are developing RecovaSmart around the full story of pain: what it feels like, what it changes and what you have tried.
