We also have a team of 'pamperers' who offer manicures and pedicures
All the therapies we offer are done upon referral from the medical team, and they complement traditional medical treatments.
They are tailored to the individual person and are non-invasive.
The benefits of the therapies are:
·       To aid relaxation
·       To help on an emotional level
·       To ease physical pain
·       To work on a spiritual level
The treatments can either be carried out in your room on the ward, in the day unit, or in our relaxing therapy room.
Appointments can be made through any of the medical staff or by phoning the therapy coordinator on 529511 ex 525.
All therapy treatments offered by the Hospice are free of charge.
