Integrative Therapies Team
Image The Integrative Therapies Team at Children's Hospital Boston provides a wide range of therapies with compassionate care.

We offer therapies and consultations for patients who are hospitalized at Children's. We also offer education for all health care practitioners, as well as demonstrations and education classes for parents.

Our staff includes a team of highly trained people who can provide:

  • Massage Therapy Massage enhances relaxation and decreases pain with pressure and flowing hand movements.

  • Guided Imagery Guided Imagery uses a focus on the senses to bring relaxation, calm and strength to mental and physical resources.

  • Reiki Reiki provides healing energy through gentle touch to provide relaxation and healing.

  • Acupuncture Acupuncture stimulates special points within the body to bring symptom relief and healing.

  • Expressive Arts Use of the arts provides expression and creative outlets to balance the body, mind and spirit.

  • Yoga Yoga combines movement, poses, meditation and deep breathing to bring healing relaxation.

  • Therapeutic Touch Therapeutic Touch is the use of gentle hand movements, often just above the body, to bring balance and healing.
    • The Integrative Therapies Team is funded and supported by the Center for Families, Medicine Patient Services, and Andre Sobel River of Life Foundation Fund.
