Welcome to the South Yorkshire Multiple Sclerosis Therapy Centre.
We are a self funding, self help Therapy Centre focused on offering people a chance to benefit from a unique blend of non-intrusive, holistic, complementary therapies and practical mutual support mainly for people with MS and other neurological conditions, their families and carers. Established in 1985, we operated from an industrial unit until enough money was raised to buy land and create our purpose built Centre here at Catcliffe. The new Centre was opened in 2001.
We currently have over 200 members and are always open to more.
Our aim is to help people to help themselves, especially in keeping as safe and mobile as possible within the confines of their condition. We offer a number of therapies, including Oxygen Therapy, Physiotherapy, Osteopathy, Massage, Reflexology, Aromatherapy and Counselling. We also provide other alternative and beauty therapies. We also have a great supply of biscuits, teas, coffees, cakes, good company, a warm welcome, and more than a few laughs.
It costs us around £106,000 a year just to keep the Centre running, and as we receive no government funding this is raised through donations, grants and a multitude of fundraising initiatives. Having just one full time and two part time members of staff, our members, volunteers and friends are invaluable.
Come and visit us, you will be amazed...
