Aromatherapy bath benefits our residents

//  by 

Residents at our care home in Exmouth have been able to once again enjoy all the benefits of a warm bath thanks to a brand new state of the art Transcare Bath.  The highly versatile bath enables patients to experience the therapeutic benefits of massage which can help enhance blood circulation, reduce pain, improve posture and encourage an overall sense of well-being.  With the added features of colour choices to promote feelings of well-being and increased vitality, the inclusion of aromatherapy is a wonderful way to treat symptoms of illnesses or just to help promote relaxation.  The accompanying music features proves to be very soothing for all our clients whilst enjoying a warm relaxing bath.  Another hugely beneficial feature of this product is the ability to semi recline the bath so that our residents are able to enjoy being semi-reclined whilst fully immersed neck deep in water.
