At Uitvaartzorg Cromboom we offer specialized services such as thanatopraxy and home burial to enable a dignified and respectful farewell. Together we discuss the various options and see which way feels right for you.
Thanatopraxy is a modern form of embalming that helps preserve the body of the deceased and give it a natural appearance. This technique ensures that the body remains intact for a longer period of time, which is especially important if there is a long period between death and the funeral. Thanatopraxy can also help to minimize any discoloration and other changes in the body, allowing the bereaved to maintain a peaceful and serene image of their loved one. Thanatopraxy does not require cooling, making it recommended for home burials. This prevents the humming sound of a cooling system and ensures that the body feels less cold.
Home burial offers families the opportunity to lay out their loved one in the familiar surroundings of their own home. This can be a comforting and intimate way to say goodbye, surrounded by personal memories and in an environment that is meaningful to the deceased and the surviving family. Our professionals ensure that the body is prepared and laid out in a respectful and careful manner, so that the family can fully focus on the grieving process and saying goodbye.
At Uitvaartzorg Cromboom we understand the importance of saying goodbye to a loved one in a personal and respectful way. We are ready with our experience and empathy to support and guide you during this difficult time, with services that are tailored to your wishes and needs.
