LEGACY AWARD - EXCELLENCE IN EDUCATION 2026
MORAG CURRIN Skin Therapist-oncology esthetics
Morag Currin, founder of Oncology Training International (OTI), was the first to supply the aesthetics industry with oncology aesthetics training, driven by the need to dispel the myth that aestheticians cannot provide safe services for people living with cancer and other health challenges. This integrative approach to cancer care considers a patient’s identity and helps them regain a positive relationship with their body. Today, OTI is an internationally recognized brand. Mórag Currin is a highly sought-after aesthetic educator with over 27 years of spa industry experience and more than twelve years of training and training management experience. She pioneered the first Oncology Aesthetics® certification for salon/spa professionals and has set the standard in fourteen countries, including her home country, South Africa. Morag is an internationally recognized educator and pioneer in oncology-informed esthetic practice, specializing in the safe, ethical support of clients affected by cancer and complex health conditions. Her work bridges medical understanding with esthetic and wellness care, helping practitioners work confidently within the appropriate professional scope.
Morag employs global education to demonstrate the impact of chemotherapy, radiation, targeted therapies, and immunotherapies on the skin, hair, nails, and lymphatic system, translating this knowledge into practical, evidence-based guidance. Her instructional focus encompasses ingredient safety, contraindications, clinical reasoning, and ethical considerations—particularly when supporting clients during active treatment and recovery. Additionally, she addresses the psychological and emotional effects of treatment-related appearance changes, assisting estheticians in providing supportive, confidence-enhancing care within appropriate professional boundaries. Moreover, Morag is expanding her oncology-centered wellness education through Equine Assisted Learning, an experiential methodology that promotes self-awareness, resilience, and emotional healing, consistent with her commitment to holistic care. Her endeavors position oncology esthetics as a safety-conscious, sustainable profession—rooted in evidence, compassion, and a respect for both clients’ experiences and practitioners’ expertise.
She is the author of foundational texts, including Oncology Esthetics: A Practitioner’s Guide (2009, 2014), Health-Challenged Skin: The Estheticians’ Desk Reference (2012), and Oncology Esthetics (2020), which have helped establish standards for working with medically compromised skin.
