Empowering Seniors with Massage

Program Benefits
The benefits of this program are widespread, simple to implement and cost effective. Massage lowers company's health care costs and improves your client/patient health and morale. Massage has successfully been used for stress and pain reduction, increased range of motion, flexibility, improvement for osteoporosis, relief from arthritis, calming effect from Alzheimer's disease, maintaining strength and range of motion following a stroke, and improved circulation. These are just a few of the problems seniors can experience and the benefits your client/patients can expect from massage. Your costs can be reduced because clients/patients will show improved mental and physical health, which has been shown to reduce the need for some medications, increase energy, improve morale, improve appetite and improve the quality of sleep. Additional cost savings will result from the reduced need for the attention from your staff. Simply put, your client/patients are happier and more content because they feel better.

Program Logistics
The purpose of Empowering Seniors with Massage is to demonstrate the benefits of cost saving and improved health and well being of seniors at your facility. The program will be presented by Massage Therapists experienced in senior and geriatric massage, which will be delivered on site on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. Selected Therapists will work with nursing home faculty to identify the most appropriate participants, to set up daily, weekly or monthly schedules and to make arrangements for an appropriate room (if needed) in which to conduct the massages.
