Richard Lamoureux Date: 1/9/2015 5:37:00 PM I try to go for a massage a few times a month. Fortunately My wife works in health care and has a tremendous benifits package. Login to Reply Jan Allison Date: 1/9/2015 5:43:00 PM I feel totally rejuvenated after this treatment Richard - the amazing thing is it is free - as hospice realise the stress the carer's are under and it really is the best hour of 'me' time ever:-) Hugs jan xxx

Maurice Yvonne Date: 1/7/2015 7:34:00 PM About my last comment...I talk like that but deep down inside...I mean it! Login to Reply Jan Allison Date: 1/7/2015 7:40:00 PM Our hospice also do gift vouchers for the massages it is about £35 a session but they dont publicise this enough - they people who do the treatments understand the stress involved in a persons life especially if they are in the position of being a carer - seriously I can highly recommend it my friend:-) Hugs jan xx
