Description
Our team of therapists at The Orangery support people living with a range of conditions including cancer, respiratory disease, heart disease and neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s disease and motor neurone disease (MND).
We aim to help people cope with the physical, psychological and emotional demands of their condition and live their lives as well as possible as their illness progresses.
The Orangery is a safe and tranquil space within Barnsley Hospice which opens on to a restful, sensory garden and has facilities for refreshments, and free parking.
Complementary Therapies to help relieve symptoms
Complementary therapies such as reflexology, aromatherapy, massage and visualisation are provided by qualified therapists at The Orangery. Anyone referred to our support and wellbeing service will have their needs assessed for these therapies. They are designed to help manage symptoms such as pain, anxiety and fatigue.
CHAT – discuss your experiences with like-minded people
CHAT is a weekly support programme running in the morning and afternoon, which encourages people living with a life-limiting illness to meet others and develop self-help techniques. These techniques are designed to help people cope with symptoms including breathlessness, fatigue, sleep problems and anxiety – whether these conditions are current or anticipated. Each week focuses on a different topic, such as – “Time to Talk”, “Craft Corner”, “Guided Relaxation” and “Practical Self Care” – to develop a self-care toolkit for all conditions. Patients are also offered support to consider advance care planning in a safe and caring environment
