Complementary Therapies
Introduction to Complementary Therapies
All the therapies work holistically, which means they treat you as a whole person – emotionally, mentally and physically – rather than concentrate on a single symptom. Therefore they are able to help with a wide range of problems. So if you are looking to boost your wellbeing, want help with an ongoing health issue or you’re just curious, why not give it a go?
We are happy to talk to you and help you to choose the most appropriate therapy.
Appointments are available Tuesday and Thursday from 10am until 8pm.
We also work with organisations – we can offer talks/workshops on complementary therapies and can provide therapy sessions specifically tailored to your service users or employees.
