Our residents love this space too — and for good reason. A soothing spa bath can help: • Ease tired muscles and stiff joints • Increase circulation • Reduce stress and promote relaxation • Support better sleep • Provide gentle comfort for those with chronic pain At Bickford of Virginia Beach, we believe in creating moments of comfort, calm, and care — whether it’s for our residents or our curious holiday guest, VeeBee.

Jose and his loved one, Susan, spent time together working on Christmas cards — a simple moment that meant so much. Activities like this are a wonderful example of Montessori-based engagement for seniors, encouraging independence, purpose, creativity, and meaningful connection. It’s also a great reminder for families: if you haven’t sent out your Christmas cards yet, it’s never too late. Creating and addressing cards together can be a joyful, hands-on activity for seniors living at Bickford of Virginia Beach, turning a holiday task into quality time.
