Complementary Therapies

All of the therapists working within WCC are fully conversant with the issues surrounding a cancer diagnosis and have sound knowledge of cancer treatments and their potential side effects. 

All treatments offered are modified and adapted to incorporate safe practice. The therapist will take your medical details and screen for conditions where precautions are necessary.  

Complementary therapies (Reflexology, Hearts, Reiki, Indian Head Massage, Aromatherapy and Therapeutic Massage) are available to both patients and carers.

Each person is entitled to six sessions and these may be accessed over a brief period of time or spread across a few months, according to needs identified by the client and therapist. 

Patients and carers are encouraged to define their goals in their initial assessment to obtain maximum benefits from all treatments.  

With the exception of Aromasticks and our Taster Exercise Sessions, there is no fee for complementary therapies but donations are welcome to assist with the general running costs of the centre.
