As part of our mission to provide exceptional end-of-life care, we offer complementary therapies such as meditation, gentle massage, sound healing and reiki to our patients. These services can increase comfort, relaxation, connection and an overall sense of peace in the moment. Please take a moment to relax and enjoy this sound healing created by Jenn Bell Finegan, Regional Hospice LMT and Sound Healer.
