Services for People Affected by Cancer and Their Families


Support

Finding someone who understands what you are going through can be challenging. At Hope Cancer Wellness Center, you don’t have to look any further. We invite anyone who is living with cancer to attend our groups and share their experiences.

Our groups provide a safe, accepting space for patients and loved ones to talk openly about the stress a cancer diagnosis brings. We have a support group for all types of cancers as well as a group specifically for breast cancer. Caregiver, bereavement, and children’s groups are also available.

Wellness

Stress relief is an important part of managing a cancer diagnosis. We offer many options for relaxation and stress management:

  • Massage therapy is widely accepted as an effective way to reduce stress and alleviate discomfort.

  • Yoga is a gentle way to incorporate exercise into your daily routine. Our instructor guides you through calm stretching and breathing techniques.

  • Reiki and Healing Touch are touch therapies intended to balance the body's energy and promote relaxation. These treatments are done with clothes on, unlike other massage procedures.

  • Reflexology is the massage of the hands or feet, focusing on pressure points that correspond to different parts of the body.

All these services are performed by licensed professionals. If needed, some therapists are available to come to your home.

Education

Hope Cancer Wellness Center regularly offers classes and workshops to educate participants about the various effects of cancer. We also teach ways to cope with the challenges presented by a cancer diagnosis. Experienced doctors, nurses, and dietitians are some of the professionals that volunteer their time as guest speakers for these activities.

On the other hand, our Lunch & Learns program is an informal way to get up-to-date information on cancer-related topics. We provide lunch in every Lunch & Learns session!

Campus Care

At Hope Cancer Wellness Center, our goal is to help people affected by cancer and their loved ones in a variety of ways. We understand that children experience anxiety and uncertainty much like adults, so we provide support sessions at area schools. Contact the counselor of your child’s school or our team for schedules.

Lending Library

Additional information about cancer-related topics is also available through the Hope Cancer Wellness Center lending library. The facility carries a wide variety of books, music, and movies. Our goal is to provide access to relevant health-related resources as well as materials for enjoyment.

Navigate

There may come moments when something cancer-related arises, and you or your loved one is unsure where to turn. Hope Cancer Wellness Center is here to help. Even if we are unable to provide the right service or tool, our staff will work to find the resources that you need.

All this is possible because Hope Cancer Wellness Center is part of a network of service providers. We aim to meet the unique needs of individuals and families facing challenges associated with cancer.
