PARTIALLY-sighted people in Worcestershire can now take advantage of a therapy service being offered by the county's Association for the Blind.

Crystal healing, reflexology, aromatherapy and massages are all available to people with sight problems and their carers.

The service, launched yesterday, aims to promote a sense of wellbeing.

"We are doing a whole host of programmes which people can access in surroundings which are familiar to them," said Sense manager Launa Walker. "Like everyone else, people with visual impairments can become stressed and need to relax. The therapy service is designed to promote this sense of wellbeing."

The treatments take place at the Bradbury Centre in Sansome Walk, Worcester.
