The Disability Foundation (TDF) is a registered charity promoting the lives of all disabled people, their families and carers, by supporting them in their desire to live an independent and dignified lifestyle - making their own choices. The centre provides a fully integrated environment with a holistic approach to both conventional and complementary treatments and therapies.
Complementary Therapy Service
To promote wellbeing on an emotional, physical and spiritual level, TDF offers a wide range of therapeutic treatments from our five treatment room complementary therapy centre based at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital in Stanmore.
All the complementary therapies are offered at reduced rates to disabled adults and children, their carers and families.

- Reiki
- Shiatsu

Accessing the services at TDF is easy and straightforward. Simply contact TDF by e-mail, telephone or by visting the centre. No GP or hospital referral is necessary unless you are an inpatient at the RNOH, although in some cases for medical reasons TDF may require a doctor's consent letter before treatment can commence.
