About the Minderoo Foundation Wellness Centre

The Minderoo Foundation Wellness Centre is where we care for patients and their loved ones, beyond traditional clinical treatments. Here, we’re focused on supporting patients, carers and those affected by cancer, with education and advocacy, health and symptom management, and holistic care through mind body practices. 

As the heart of the building within the ground floor, the wellness centre has been designed as a place for patients and their loved ones to take time out during or after treatments.  

Patients can also complement their clinical care with active therapy such as yoga and meditation, music therapy, or even spending time with our therapy dogs.
