Palliative Care Services

Helping  people who  are affected by diagnosis and treatment  of cancer, chronic and life threatening illness. 

Life Spring palliative care (in association with the Fountain Centre) offers information, support and advice for people  affected by cancer, chronic and life threatening illness, in order to make it easier for you and your family to cope. We can help at any point during your treatment or illness, from the time of diagnosis.

Our speciality is in the field of complementary therapies.The broad aim of these therapies  is to add quality to your life.

We can offer practical information about our services, a better understanding on treatments or advice on coping with the symptoms of illness whether emotional or physical.

Promoting positive living with chronic and life threatening  illness, through effective, appropriate and timely holistic intervention from the point of diagnosis.

We offer a range of complementary therapies to help people through their cancer treatments and the effects of  life changing illness such as motor neurone disease, multiple sclerosis, dementia etc. These treatments do not take place of those prescribed by your doctor but go hand in hand with them to promote deep relaxation and general well-being.

Life Spring is based at the Fountain Centre which is a relaxed and comfortable setting in which to come and discuss your situation or we will visit you at home or in hospital. All therapies are carried out either at the Fountain Centre or in your home or in the hospital setting (as appropriate), under the care of  experienced, skilled and registered professional  therapists.

Our aim is to allow you to relax, feel  safe and enjoy your chosen complementary therapy.
