St Columba’s Hospice Care is proud to announce the official opening of Manor House Therapies, a new social enterprise providing high-quality, holistic wellbeing treatments while directly supporting hospice services across Edinburgh and the Lothians.

Housed in a beautiful B-listed villa in Trinity with stunning views across the Firth of Forth, Manor House Therapies offers clients a unique and serene setting for a range of accessible services that support mental, emotional and physical wellbeing. Treatments include massage therapies, reflexology, facials, Indian head massage and a dedicated counselling service. Every therapy purchased contributes to sustaining essential hospice care for patients, families and the wider community.

Lisa Kerr, Manager of Manor House Therapies, said: “Our aim is to provide a peaceful, restorative experience for every client, whether they are coming to relax, recharge, or simply take some time for themselves. What makes Manor House Therapies truly unique is that every treatment also helps fund vital hospice services, so our clients can feel that their wellbeing is making a real difference in the lives of others. We look forward to welcoming everyone to experience our therapies and enjoy the stunning surroundings.”

The new venture also plans to collaborate with organisations such as Edinburgh College and the Holistic Therapy School to provide training and work experience opportunities for young people and those retraining in the therapies industry, helping them develop skills and progress in their careers. As an independent business, Manor House Therapies offers the public a professional, welcoming environment where wellbeing and social purpose go hand in hand.

Jackie Stone, CEO of St Columba’s Hospice Care, said: “Manor House Therapies demonstrates the innovative approaches we are taking to support our community. At a time when funding across the hospice sector is increasingly challenging, we see initiatives like this as an important way to help sustain the delivery of compassionate, specialist care for people across Edinburgh and the Lothians into the future.”

Manor House Therapies is now open for bookings. For more information, visit manorhousetherapies.org.uk or contact enquiries@manorhousetherapies.org.uk.
