Nurturing Wellbeing in Aged Care and Lifestyle Homes
Relax & Restore for Aged Care & Lifestyle Homes
We offer gentle, calming Relax & Restore sessions designed specifically for residents in lifestyle villages, aged care, and nursing home settings. These sessions provide a peaceful and supportive space where residents can slow down, engage their senses, and reconnect with a sense of calm and enjoyment in the moment.
Our Approach
Each session is thoughtfully designed to be inclusive, flexible, and respectful of individual abilities and needs.
We begin with simple, guided relaxation techniques to support:
-
Calm breathing
-
Gentle body awareness
-
Emotional comfort and grounding
A soothing environment is created using soft music, calming aromas, and sensory elements, supporting relaxation and comfort. Residents are then invited to engage in gentle watercolour painting, focusing on the natural flow of colour and movement rather than outcome. This allows for:
-
Creative expression without pressure
-
Sensory stimulation and engagement
-
A calming, mindful experience
Sessions are unhurried and adaptable, allowing each person to participate in a way that feels comfortable for them.
Sensory & Comfort-Based Experience - We gently engage the senses to enhance wellbeing and connection:
-
Calming essential oils (where appropriate)
-
Soft background music
-
Gentle textures and sensory items
Where appropriate and with consent, sessions may include gentle hand massage, offering soothing touch and a sense of care and connection.
Benefits for Residents - These sessions can support:
-
Relaxation and reduction of anxiety or agitation
-
Sensory stimulation and engagement
-
Emotional wellbeing and comfort
-
Social connection (in small group settings)
-
Gentle cognitive and creative engagement
-
A sense of enjoyment, calm, and dignity
Flexible Delivery - Sessions can be delivered:
-
1:1 at bedside or in-room
-
Small group sessions (kept intentionally small to maintain a calm environment)
-
Adapted for residents with cognitive impairment, dementia, or reduced mobility
All sessions are person-centred, respectful, and paced to each individual.
Working Together
We work collaboratively with lifestyle teams, carers, and families to ensure sessions align with each resident’s needs, preferences, and care plans.
Our aim is to create a gentle, nurturing experience that brings moments of calm, connection, and quiet joy.
Pricing for aged care and lifestyle home sessions is tailored based on group size, session duration, and individual facility needs.
We are happy to work collaboratively with lifestyle teams to design sessions that align with resident needs and schedules.
