For 25 years, Survivor Wellness* has provided the cancer survivor community with lifetime access to affordable, high-quality integrative health care services and support in a home-like environment. All of our programming is provided free of charge, is available to anyone affected by a cancer diagnosis (including caregivers and loved ones), and includes: group and individual health counseling and support; individual integrative health care therapies (massage therapy, reiki, yoga therapy, etc.), group classes (yoga, qigong, mindfulness, etc.), community events, and more.
Survivor Wellness also offers integrative health care trainees, providers and clinicians with education, training, and startup business opportunities via our incubator project, The Survivor Institute.
Programs are delivered at our beautiful campus located in two historic homes in central Salt Lake City with 40,000 square feet of space, including a yoga/movement studio and event space, a private counseling cottage, as well as beautiful gardens and outdoor spaces. (Online options are also available for certain programs.)
We accept anyone affected by a cancer diagnosis, without any demonstration of financial need. Just as the course of cancer cannot be predicted, neither can the effects of diagnosis and treatment - physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, social, and financial. Our mission is to alleviate the burdens in all of these areas.
Programming at Survivor Wellness is funded by foundations, businesses, and individuals. We provide an estimated 1000 user days per year, and around 65% of our clientele live at or below the AMI. We are extremely grateful for the support of our donors and granting organizations. Contact us to become a sponsor.
Donations in honor of those affected by cancer are always welcome. Please visit the "Donate" page for more information, or reach out to our offices.
Our annual event, "Survivors at the Summit" has been held continuously for 25 years, and celebrates the triumph of the human spirit with the ascent to the summit of Hidden Peaks at Snowbird Resort. Visit this page for more details, including dates, registration, tribute flags, and more.
*Founded in 1997 as Cancer Wellness House, this organization was established by Tika Beard and a host of wonderful members and dedicated caregivers of the cancer community. The current staff and administration of Survivor Wellness offers our deepest respect and gratitude to these trailblazers. Our organization honors the history of Holy Cross Hospital, the Montgomery Family, and those who work courageously to serve those living with cancer in the Salt Lake City area.
Survivor Wellness is still located at 59 S 1100 E. You are welcome to stop by for a visit. We are generally in the office from 10-6 daily; however, it's best to call ahead. We look forward to seeing you.
