Nyack Hospital will host a free session of the Look Good…Feel Better® program on Monday, September 14, at 10:00 am.  Look Good. . .Feel Better® is a national public service program created from the concept that if someone with cancer can be helped to look good, their improved self-esteem will help them to approach their disease and treatment with greater confidence.   

The group program is open to all women cancer patients who are undergoing radiation or chemotherapy treatment. Each year, more than 50,000 female patients participate in a Look Good...Feel Better® group session. Since 1989, 500,000 cancer patients have benefited from this worthwhile initiative.

Other sessions available are:

Monday, October 5, 10:00 am

Monday, November 2, 10:00 am

Monday, December 7, 10:00 am

Thousands of volunteer cosmetologists participate in the program. All are trained and certified by ACS, NCA and the CTFA Foundation at local, statewide and national workshops. In addition, some volunteer health care professionals and other individuals also give their time to Look Good...Feel Better.

The program is offered through collaboration between the CTFA Foundation, the American Cancer Society (ACS) and the National Cosmetology Association (NCA), a national organization of more than 20,000 hairstylists, wig experts, estheticians, makeup artists and nail technicians.
