Balance Therapy offers...

... Individualised Care Plans specifically designed to address residents particular needs... Contact us for further details

... Music Facilitation involving groups of 5 or more residents who engage in musical stimulation to promote a greater sense of wellbeing... Contact us for further details

... Reflexology Relaxation Sessions as an excellent relaxation tool which enhances wellbeing physically, mentally and socially.

To offer reflexology as part of your commitment to maintaining exceptional standards for residents can only serve to enhance your position in the healthcare arena as the number one provider of quality care.

This reflexology opportunity can be taken on a Contractual Basis with nursing/care homes booking 7 hours per day at a cost of £105; or booking a 3.5 hour half day at a cost of £52.50

This opportunity would serve a maximum of 14 individuals on any full day and 7 individuals on any half day, and is offered at a fraction of the cost usually incurred for a reflexology session. Reflexology is probably not a service you currently offer to your residents and therefore it would not have been budgeted for in the fees paid to you on their behalf, however at a cost of £7.50 per resident per session the potential benefit to individuals' wellbeing far outweighs the minimal cost involved

Alternatively consideration will be taken for Individual Bookings from nursing.care home residents at a cost of £7.50 per person

If you would prefer to offer this as a service incurring an additional charge to residents, individual bookings are offered for a minimum amount of 7 bookings grouped into morning or afternoon slots in any one day. Sessions are to be booked through the nursing/care home office and are 30 minute relaxation treatments carried out on the premises.
