1 Cancer, Massage, and Symptom Relief What does Research Tell Us about the Benefits of Massage? A Webinar with Tracy Walton, MS, LMT Part 2 of the Massage in Cancer Care Webinar Series Background Tracy Walton Author Educator Researcher Massage Therapist Specialist in massage therapy and cancer care Cancer and Cancer Treatment cause Physical and Emotional Distress Symptom relief is a high priority in cancer care 1
2 People turn to massage therapy for The Big Five in Cancer Care Support Companionship Escape Symptom relief Pain Nausea Fatigue Anxiety Depression Problems We Face We want to provide convincing evidence of massage benefits, but Often no research exists Some massage therapy research is overstated Commonly accepted effects of massage not always supported by solid research MTs not always trained to find, evaluate, and use research In this Webinar: Overview of research on massage and cancer Different types of evidence Highlight some of the strongest research Identify what the research tells us Identify what the research does not tell us 2
3 Then, we can.. Promote massage therapy using accurate information Move forward with the strongest research on massage and cancer Use the research well We are on solid ground Evidence Based Medicine Medical practice is guided by systematic research: The direction of the evidence from research The strength of the evidence from research Not all research is equal There are levels of evidence STRONGEST Levels Of Evidence WEAKEST 3
4 A single story of a single client experience Considered the weakest level of evidence A practitioner s formal write-up of a single client: Background Presentation Treatment Outcomes Even if published, one of the weakest levels of evidence A formal write-up of more than one case Cases are similar in presentation and treatment Highlights similarities and differences among cases 4
5 Randomized, Controlled Trial (RCT) Randomized, controlled trial (RCT) can generate convincing data about massage Typically given more weight than case series, but One RCT does not usually prove a point One RCT may suggest a massage benefit Need a number of RCTs saying the same thing to answer a question Researcher reviews the literature Assesses quality of studies Summarizes findings Reports impressions in the literature 5
6 Also called a Meta-Analysis Researcher reviews the research literature Assesses quality of studies, pools data Sophisticated meta-analytic statistical methods One source of good quantitative reviews is Cochrane Collaboration, This level carries the most weight Levels of Evidence What does Research Tell Us about Benefits of Massage for People with Cancer? What does the evidence suggest? How strong is the evidence? How do we use it responsibly and accurately? 6
7 Focus areas: What do Anecdotes Tell Us? Big 5 symptoms Relaxation Ease of movement Empowerment Quality of life (QOL) Coping abilities Better sleep And more! 7
8 What do Anecdotes Tell Us? Big 5 symptoms Relaxation Ease of movement Empowerment Quality of life (QOL) Coping abilities Better sleep And more! (See Lu et al., 2009) What Does a Case Series Tell Us? Cassileth and Vickers, 2004 Sample size: 1290 in- and outpatients Control: None 8
9 What Does a Case Series Tell Us? Cassileth and Vickers, 2004 Sample size: 1290 in- and outpatients Control: None Findings: Pain 40% Nausea 21.2% Fatigue 40.7% Anxiety 52.2% Depression 30.6% Post-White et al., 2003 What do RCTs Tell Us? Sample size: 164 outpatients in chemo Control/Comparisons: Standard care, Healing Touch, Caring presence 9
10 Post-White et al., 2003 What do RCTs Tell Us? Sample size: 164 outpatients in chemo Control/Comparisons: Standard care, Healing Touch, Caring presence Massage Findings: Anxiety Pain Analgesic use Mood Relaxation No change in nausea (!) What do RCTs Tell Us? Kutner et al., 2008 (The REST Study) Sample size: 380 people in hospice care, advanced cancer Control/comparison: Simple touch by hospice volunteers What do RCTs Tell Us? Kutner et al., 2008 (The REST Study) Sample size: 380 people in hospice care, advanced cancer Control/comparison: Simple touch by hospice volunteers Findings: Both professional MT and Simple Touch pain, mood, QOL Professional MT slightly superior in immediate pain, immediate mood 10
11 Phipps S et al., 2010 What do RCTs Tell Us? Sample size: 178 children in stem cell transplant Control/comparison: Standard care, parent interventions Phipps S et al., 2010 What do RCTs Tell Us? Sample size: 178 children in stem cell transplant Control/comparison: Standard care, parent interventions Findings: No differences between massage and standard care No differences between any groups Grealish L et al. (2000) What do RCTs Tell Us? Sample size: 87 inpatients Control: Quiet time 11
12 Grealish L et al. (2000) What do RCTs Tell Us? Sample size: 87 inpatients Control: Quiet time Findings: Pain Nausea Relaxation What do RCTs Tell Us? Collinge W et al. (Manuscript in review) Sample size: 97 adult patient/care partner dyads Control: Care partner read to patient What do RCTs Tell Us? Collinge W et al. (Manuscript in review) Sample size: 97 adult patient/care partner dyads Control: Care partner read to patient Findings: Symptoms in both groups Greater improvement in massage/touch group Symptom reduction comparable to reports of professional MT from MSK Cancer Center 12

14 What do Narrative Reviews Tell Us? Myers C et al., 2008 Data support the view that modified massage could benefit patients with anxiety, pain, and other symptoms Larger studies with more rigorous design needed What do Narrative Reviews Tell Us? Myers C et al., 2008 Data support the view that modified massage could benefit patients with anxiety, pain, and other symptoms Larger studies with more rigorous design needed Corbin L, 2005 Massage therapy can safely be used in people with cancer, but MTs need to be qualified to adapt massage Strongest evidence supports improvement of stress, anxiety 14
15 What do Quantitative Reviews Tell Us? Ernst E., 2009 Studies suggested massage could help many symptoms Quality of most studies too poor for firm conclusions What do Quantitative Reviews Tell Us? Ernst E., 2009 Studies suggested massage could help many symptoms Quality of most studies too poor for firm conclusions Jane SW., 2008 Studies inconsistent, often poorly designed Difficult to compare apples and oranges Recommended future studies use Equal massage doses Standard massage protocols Larger sample sizes Look at effects of massage over time Another Quantitative Review Moyer CA, et al. A Meta-Analysis of massage therapy research. Psychological Bulletin (1):3-18 Looked at general massage literature (not just effects on people with cancer) Looked at single dose of massage, and course of massage therapy. 15
16 Another Quantitative Review Moyer CA, et al. A Meta-Analysis of massage therapy research. Psychological Bulletin (1):3-18 Looked at general massage literature (not just effects on people with cancer) Conclusions: Single dose of MT state anxiety, BP, heart rate Did not affect negative mood, immediate assessment of pain, or cortisol level Course of MT trait anxiety and depression significantly Equivalent to reductions in psychotherapy (!) Summing Up 1 large case series Support for massage No control group Massage safe Cassileth & Vickers, 2004 Summing Up Post-White Kutner Phipps Grealish Collinge (in review) 5 sizeable RCTs Results mixed Themes: Big 5 symptoms, mood, relaxation Massage seems safe (with training and knowledge) 16
17 Mixed results Massage seems safe Summing Up Myers, 2008 Corbin, Narrative Reviews Support for symptom reduction, especially anxiety Massage safe but MT needs specialized knowledge Ernst, 2009 Jane, Quantitative Reviews Evidence not convincing Many studies flawed Studies too different to compare or pool data 17
18 So What Do We Say about Massage/Cancer Research? Massage appears to be safe Therapists need specialized knowledge So What Do We Say about Massage/Cancer Research? Avoid saying, Research proves PROOF Instead, use: Research suggests Research supports So What Do We Say about Massage/Cancer Research? What do I say? The body of research on massage therapy and cancer is small, but growing. The evidence does not provide firm conclusions about the benefit of massage. From the available research, there are some themes: the strongest support is for the view that massage can relieve pain and anxiety. 18
