HEALING VIBRATIONS
Healing Vibrations is a new service being developed by the Cullather Brain Tumor Quality of Life Center, thanks to the creativity and generosity of Pamela and Russell Finer and their family and friends. The “Healing Vibrations” fund will allow the center to give patients/families access to such activities as yoga, healing touch, guided imagery, nutritional support, art and music therapy, therapeutic massage and cadre of other complementary therapies that can enhance quality of life. Often financial constraints prevent access to these supportive services; thus donations to this fund will provide a very special gift to patients and their families. If you are interested in contributing to the support of this innovative new program, your tax deductable donations will be welcomed at the following:
