Summary

This study is testing whether a short, focused upper-body massage after each radiation treatment can reduce muscle and joint pain, improve arm and shoulder mobility, and boost quality of life for people with breast cancer. About 55 participants will receive the massages and report their symptoms. The goal is to see if this simple, drug-free approach is helpful and acceptable during a stressful treatment period.
