Hi, my mum was diagnosed in May with stage 4 bowel cancer. It’s been hard, but for Christmas my aunty would like to gift her a spa day, unfortunately due to her diagnosis not all of them will let her book my mum in for a massage. Does anyone know any spas in the north west that do? Thanks in advance; from a daughter that just wants to make this Christmas extra special x
Hello,
Is mum having chemo or anything?
I know there is someone at Chorley hospital - I know it’s not a spa - but they do massages, plus other things.
I know someone else who was trying to get something and no where would because of treatment/diagnosis. I think it might be to do with the products they use possibly? And your skin can become sensitive while having treatment…
I guess it depends where abouts in the north west this is wanted?
Good luck… x
Not quite a spa day but when I was on chemo I went for a beauty day at my local cancer hospital.might be worth asking if anything similar is available.
A group of us were treated to a full make up lesson and came away with a lovely treat bag of products(all suitable to be used during chemo treatment)
