St Andrew's Hospice | Complementary Therapies

The Retreat is our hidden gem; a relaxing and friendly spa environment offering a range of therapeutic complementary therapies to inpatients and outpatients.

At St Andrew’s Hospice, we aim to provide the very best in compassionate care to all in our local community. Our range of holistic complementary therapies, delivered across 60-minute sessions, aim to reduce tension, detox your brain and body and give you quality time to relax and rejuvenate.

Our fully qualified therapists are experienced in working with complex emotional, mental, and physical needs. They work to restore balance, whilst also providing emotional, physical and spiritual support.

Holistic care helps a person relax and create a feeling of wellbeing. It can ease symptoms such as pain, nausea, and poor sleep patterns, help to reduce fear, depression, and anxiety, and improve circulation. These therapies also foster a state of wholeness, peace, and promote relaxation.

We provide the following holistic complementary therapies:

Reiki
Target-specific massage
Indian head massage
Reflexology
Aromatherapy
Holistic face massage
Beauty treatments.

The Retreat is fully accessible to wheelchairs and large medical equipment, and therapy rooms can be adapted to suit our clients’ needs. This includes closing blinds and doors to create a darker, more private environment.

Your therapist will work with you to determine the best course of treatment for your condition.
