Welcome to our
Special Needs and Comfort Care
Division where customized services
are offered in sync with Hospice
Care and other medical facilities
such as nursing homes, assisted
living and home health care
systems. Spa-Nique Special Needs
Division supports the practices of
these facilities. Through an
assessment process it is determined
how to simplify our efforts while
maintaining the integrity of
programs to meet accreditation and
licensing standards of care.
Spa-Nique alleviates the cumbersome
task of hiring, screening and
training qualified massage
therapists with the ultimate
approval of the facility manager.
While working within the guidelines,
policies and procedures of these
facilities this affordable option
only enhances the quality of patient
care.
Spa-Nique now offers opportunities
for those most in need of comfort
and relaxation. Compassionate and
well trained therapists are
available to support those fragile
and compromised clients who are
experiencing chronic pain and "end
