A Holistic Approach To Help You
Discover Therapies, Activites & Gentle Healing
We’re With You
Supporting You & Your Loved Ones
We offer advice and counselling for people living with cancer and their families, including advice on diet, exercise, stress management (including positive thinking), relaxation and meditation as well as a range of 1-to-1 therapies.
We offer a truly holistic approach which helps you to look at your own needs and to value time doing things that bring you joy.
We hold our monthly support meetings at Vine House, 22 Cromwell Road, Preston PR2 6YB.
The meetings are free of charge.
Everyone has physical, mental & spiritual aspects to their lives & health depends on well-being in all of these areas, as well as harmony between them & the environment in which we live.
We try to guide, assist & support you in becoming aware of yourself as a ‘whole’ person, & we place such tools as are available into your hands to help your body heal.
We also help you to look at your own needs & to value time spent doing things that make your heart sing.
