Baking Club

Cooking and baking are fully immersive experiences which engage all the senses. It’s a very tactile activity, which allows us to experience different textures and sensations. It also gets us moving and can improve hand-eye coordination through stirring, kneading dough, and other movements

Pet Therapy

Pet therapy has also been shown to improve patient satisfaction, energy levels, self-esteem, and mood, as well as decrease depression. Additional benefits include increased motor skills and movement, improved social skills and verbal communication, decreased boredom, and a more positive outlook.

Art Therapy

Art Therapy can reduce the feelings of anxiety, depression, and stress in seniors. Studies show that seniors who participated in creative arts experienced lower levels of depression and loneliness and were more positive in general.

Cardio Drumming

Benefits of cardio drumming include:
  • While drumming, residents are moving their awareness to what’s directly in front of them – feelings of anxiety and stress melt away as the focus is taken to staying on beat.
  • Promoted relaxation. In one study, blood samples from participants who participated in an hour-long drumming session revealed a reversal in stress hormones.
  • Chronic pain alleviation. Drumming can certainly serve as a distraction from pain. and, it promotes the production of endorphins and endogenous opiates, which are the body’s own morphine-like painkillers.
  • Improved cognitive function including attention, short term memory and ability to follow cues.
All you need is a surface to drum on (exercise balls), drumsticks and a song with a beat!
