At a VSA Aberdeenshire Carers Week event, Dr Melanie Jones (PhD) of Paradise Clinic, Kemnay provided reflexology sessions to 10 carers and also helped out with beautiful pamper packs containing freshly made BSkincare Lemon Barrier Cream and Lip Rescue and OrganicaJ comfrey ointment all for Carers.
Carer’s comments included:
“What a lovely treat”
“Great to have someone look after me for a little while”
It is important that carers take time out for themselves and relaxing, complementary therapies are a great way to do this.
VSA will look forward to working with Melanie, with regard to looking at ways carers can access more treatments and also to discuss Carer Training in using complementary therapies to help themselves relax and help treat their own ailments."
