"My healing journey"

About: University Hospital Hairmyres / Oncology Day Unit

(as a service user),

I went to the therapist provided by the oncology department at Hairmayers Hospital. The therapist name is Elaine, she has been wonderful and a great help on my chemotherapy journey. Today I chose reflexology and the only way that I can explain is that I went in feeling like wood and came out feeling heard and relaxed and with a little bit of more positive energy. 

I am very grateful for this service and in particular to Elaine, she is very very good at her job plus.
