Testimonials

Comments from patients and visitors to the Support Centre:

"My whole body condition has improved tremendously. I have been shown love, support, care and encouragement at the Centre. I have met the most wonderful people that have volunteered their time to help the cancer patients like me. I have the highest respect for them for the intuition, insight and love they have shown me. The peaceful and relaxing atmosphere in the Centre is created by these special people that work here. I always look forward to coming to the Centre to be surrounded by these positive people."

"It is difficult at this time to state how the treatment I had made me feel. A lot of anger and sadness came up afterwards but I believe this to be a positive sign. Part of the clearing and healing process."

"It was lovely to feel the caring and the sense of support. I felt peaceful, nurtured and cared about. Thank you to the people who give their time."

"Restores faith in the world after a very trying time. A little bit of heaven!"

"The treatments have made a big difference in a very positive way to the way I feel generally. I can only say that the centre is fantastic and I feel very much at ease and felt that the treatment has increased my confidence in my chemotherapy treatment."

"I am very grateful for the SolarisCare Foundation and very thankful to the wonderful volunteers. It’s the first time in my life I have been able to try some of what’s on offer. I hope to try more."

"The Chi Dynamics relaxed me and made me feel more positive about healing myself and increasing my energy."

"Since being diagnosed with breast cancer in December 2001 and subsequent masectomy, my world has been turned upside down. In order to cope with this major event in my life, I opted to turn to complimentary therapies for relief, peace of mind and ability to focus on the future. During this time, I have found Reiki to be absolutely invaluable. I have managed to cope a lot better both mentally and physically. Reiki is the means to the end. The treatment I have received from your voluntary members at the support centre has been amazing. I am of the opinion if others sought this treatment, and believe in its healing powers, that they can only benefit both themselves and their families, with their greater peace of mind and ability to cope with their illness."
