Therapeutic Magnetism — Private Practice in Saint-Sauveur and Remote Sessions Worldwide
Clinical healer for burns, shingles, radiotherapy and chemotherapy side-effects – remote and in-person services in Saint-Sauveur, Montreal and internationally
At your service since 2010

Rapid relief for burns, inflammation and treatment side-effects (radiotherapy, chemotherapy and shingles)
Since 2010, I have provided specialized clinical support as a fire-cutting healer, offering rapid relief for recent burns, early-stage shingles, acute inflammatory eczema, and side-effects related to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. My services are available remotely across Quebec, in Montreal and the Laurentians, and internationally, as well as in my private practice in Saint-Sauveur for local residents.
My clinical approach focuses on reducing burning sensations, easing pain, calming inflammation, and supporting the body’s natural recovery mechanisms. I work in parallel with medical treatments—particularly with oncology patients—to help alleviate common side-effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy such as skin discomfort, burning sensations, unusual fatigue, and diffuse pain.
Documented results are available on my clinical case studies page.
Urgent requests are handled seven days a week, with priority given to children and high-risk situations. Each session is conducted professionally, without physical contact or contraindications, and always in full respect of existing medical care.
Frequently asked questions about clinical fire-cutting support – burns, shingles and urgent cases
Are you dealing with an urgent situation such as a recent burn, early-stage shingles or a post-radiation skin reaction? Below are the most frequently asked questions about remote fire-cutting support. This non-intrusive clinical method is available seven days a week in Montreal, throughout Quebec and internationally. If you would like to better understand my professional stance and the context surrounding the practice of healing in Quebec Canada, you can read my published statements addressing ethical, legal and regulatory considerations.
What is the fire-cutting method used by clinical healers?
Fire-cutting is a traditional non-contact method practiced in French-speaking regions (Quebec, France, Switzerland, Belgium) to help reduce burning sensations, inflammation and discomfort from burns, shingles and cancer treatments. It is not esoteric and does not replace medical care.

No. There is currently no scientific study demonstrating that fire-cutting or healer-based interventions produce specific clinical effects.
However, fire-cutting remains widely used in certain francophone regions as a form of complementary support requested by patients for comfort and symptom relief. My practice is clinical, structured and does not interfere with medical treatments.
Sources (eng.): Cancer Research UK – Healing as complementary therapyCan fire-cutting help with recent burns?
es. Fire-cutting may help reduce pain and inflammation when requested within 48 hours of a thermal, chemical or post-surgical burn. Early intervention is important.

This method may help ease treatment-related discomfort such as radiation dermatitis, burning sensations, diffuse pain or acute fatigue. It is complementary and never replaces oncology protocols.
Sources (eng.): For medical context on radiation-related skin reactions, you can refer to this Cancer Research UK resource onradiotherapy-induced skin effects.
When should I request fire-cutting support for cancer treatment?
For oncology cases, the best time is:
-
One week before radiotherapy or chemotherapy begins
-
As soon as discomfort or skin reactions appear during treatment
Late support may still help, but free urgent care applies only to cases within specific clinical windows.
-
Can fire-cutting support children undergoing cancer treatments?
Yes. Children aged 0–14 may receive free support during radiotherapy or chemotherapy when experiencing pain, inflammation or skin reactions.

Can fire-cutting help during early-stage shingles?
Yes. Fire-cutting can reduce burning sensations, itchiness and nerve discomfort when shingles is diagnosed within the first 5 days and before antiviral medication begins.
Is remote fire-cutting support effective?
Yes. Because the method is non-contact, remote sessions are clinically adapted and commonly used across Quebec, Canada and abroad. Urgent cases are handled seven days a week.

Is fire-cutting compatible with medical treatments?
Completely. It is non-invasive, non-pharmacological and does not interact with medication. Fire-cutting is intended to improve comfort while respecting all medical protocols, whether dermatological, surgical or oncological.
Source (eng.): You can also review my professional Code of Ethics for full transparency on my clinical standards and responsibilities.
Why is fire-cutting little known in English-speaking countries?
Because it developed mainly in francophone cultures. In English-speaking hospitals, similar practices fall under integrative oncology, non-drug pain relief, or healing touch. The goals are comparable: reduce pain, ease discomfort, and support symptom management.

Yes. Remote interventions are available in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, and worldwide. Time zones are accommodated for urgent cases.
What happens during a session?
Sessions are calm, structured and non-contact. You remain at home or in a medical environment while I apply a precise clinical protocol. The goal is to reduce pain, burning sensations and inflammation without interfering with any ongoing treatment.

Martin Ladouceur is a clinical healer specializing in burns, shingles and cancer-treatment side-effects, using an evidence-based fire-cutting method recognized in several French-speaking hospital settings. He offers remote and in-person support in Saint-Sauveur, Montreal, the Laurentians and internationally, with documented results in reducing pain, inflammation and radiation-related skin reactions.
How a clinical fire-cutting intervention works – remotely or in-office
Each intervention follows a precise clinical protocol adapted to the situation—whether it involves a recent burn, early-stage shingles, or inflammatory reactions linked to cancer treatments. The process is based on rigorous clinical observation, clear timing markers, and a complementary approach that integrates safely with existing medical care, whether the session is conducted remotely or in my private practice.
Urgent clinical support (no fee)
As a French-speaking clinical healer from Quebec, I practice a traditional method known in francophone hospital settings as “fire-cutting.” This non-esoteric approach is used to reduce burning sensations, acute inflammation and pain during burns, shingles or cancer treatments. In my practice, it is applied within a structured and clinically supervised framework that supports the body’s natural recovery without interfering with ongoing medical care.
Urgent situations
I provide priority support in the following cases, with fees waived under specific emergency conditions:
-
Recent burns (thermal, chemical, post-surgical) — within 48 hours
-
Acute shingles — within 5 days of onset and before antiviral treatment
-
Radiotherapy or chemotherapy reactions — free support for children aged 0–14
For major accidents, significant burns or hospitalization (including intensive care), rapid intervention is also available.
If the situation falls outside these timelines, standard support fees apply.
Service areas
Remote sessions are available throughout Montreal, Quebec, the Laurentians and internationally.
In-person consultations will be offered in Saint-Sauveur starting fall 2025.
