A question we get asked often:
โ€œWhy do you have a massage therapist at an oncology centre?โ€
โ€‹
Because cancer treatment doesnโ€™t just attack cells. It attacks comfort. Confidence. The simple element of "feeling like yourself".
โ€‹
And while we canโ€™t take away the hard parts, we can make sure you donโ€™t face them alone, or in pain you donโ€™t have to carry.
โ€‹
Thatโ€™s why Marthaโ€™s here.

Behind every team is courage.
โ€‹
It doesn't always look loud or brave. Sometimes it's a quiet choice to show up again, even when your body says stop.
โ€‹
Sr Selma Frans has sat through hundreds of infusions. One thing stands out: courage isn't fearlessness. It's showing up scared and doing it anyway.
โ€‹
While her job is to administer medication, her greatest role is to remind you, especially when you can't see it yourself, that you're stronger than you think.
โ€‹
And you're not facing this alone.
โ€‹

Behind every plan is a team.
โ€‹
Cancer treatment isn't one person doing one thing. It's dosimetrists calculating angles you'll never see. Nurses learning your fears before you voice them. Therapists adjusting equipment while explaining what's happening next.
โ€‹
It's a lot of people, working together, focused on one goal: you.
โ€‹
From the planning room to the treatment room to the final session, you're never navigating this alone. Every step has someone walking it with you.
โ€‹
Science gives us the tools. Courage, yours and ours, gets us through.

Behind every warrior is a plan.
โ€‹
Most people don't think about what happens between diagnosis and treatment. But there's an entire team working behind the scenes, turning fear into a roadmap.
โ€‹
Lโ€™lanie Cooper, one of our dosimetrists spends hours calculating radiation plans with millimetre precision. It's physics. It's complex. And honestly? It sounds intimidating.
โ€‹
But here's the human part: every single calculation they make is designed to give you something cancer tries to steal: certainty. A plan when you feel lost. Control when everything's chaotic. Something solid when nothing else makes sense.
โ€‹
At NOC, we believe great oncology care needs both: brilliant science AND people who never forget there's a person on the other side of those numbers.
โ€‹
Your treatment plan is hope with a blueprint.

We've come to learn that the barrier to screening is rarely medical.
It's psychological: the fear of making the call, the discomfort of uncertainty, the hope that symptoms will never come.

๐——๐—ฟ ๐—™๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜€๐—ธ๐—ฎ ๐—•๐—น๐—ผ๐—บ: "Courage isn't the absence of fear. It's going anyway."

Screening matters, even when you feel perfectly healthy. Even when you're afraid. Especially when you're afraid.
