Complementary Therapy
Complementary therapies are a combination of both modern and ancient techniques and can offer a great deal of support to those that use them.

Spiritual and Pastoral Care
The Spiritual and Pastoral Care Service at Myton is delivered in partnership with University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust. The Chaplaincy team is made up of Chaplains and volunteers from a wide breadth of cultural and faith/no-faith backgrounds.
Members of the team are trained to be careful and compassionate listeners, and offer confidential, non-judgemental support regardless of denomination, culture or ethnicity. The same support is offered both to patients, and to any family members or friends who might find it helpful.

Adult, Children and Young Persons Counselling
Coping with a terminal illness is a huge challenge for patients, friends and family, including children. We provide support for both adults and children, either individually or in groups, to help you cope.
By providing an opportunity to talk to someone who is not directly involved in the situation and by sharing your worries and fears, you can feel less overwhelmed by them. It can also help you feel more in control even though there may be some things you cannot change.
