Pampering and aromatherapy at Mellish House

30th August 2021

At Mellish House Care Home in Sudbury we have been maximising the use of our hair salon to provide pamper sessions with aromatherapy, soothing sounds and massages.

Residents came to our salon room which had been set up with LED candles, lavender aromatherapy scents and relaxing spa music playing. Our residents came for 30–45-minute massages on their arms, hands, legs and feet. Our ladies also enjoyed having a little make up applied, blusher and new lipsticks. They loved the pampering saying things like, "Wow I don't look old anymore", "I feel like a new woman!", "Can I come back here every day?" and "I could have this done all over."

We were very lucky to be gifted manicure and pedicure lotions from a relative who works as a beautician and the residents really liked the smell of these. It wasn't only residents ion the salon that were pampered we also took it around the home for everyone to be able to enjoy.

I think it is safe to say it has been a success and will become a regular item on 0ur activities schedule!
