A moment of well-being for patients

The first two animal mediation sessions took place, led by the IMANAYA association. It was a warm moment, full of exchanges and smiles. A real bonding time between patients, enhanced by the comforting presence of the animals.

These sessions for patients take place at the Center in the therapeutic garden or indoors, depending on the weather. Group size is limited to 6 patients per session.

What are the benefits?

  • Reduced anxiety.
  • Soothing and a feeling of well-being.
  • Comfort.
  • A source of joy.

Animal mediation is based on positive interactions between the animal and the patient, in a gentle, reassuring environment.
