Geriatric Massage
What is it?
Geriatric massage is a type of massage therapy specifically tailored to meet the needs of older adults. It focuses on improving circulation, relieving pain, enhancing mobility, and promoting relaxation while addressing age-related conditions. This form of massage uses gentle and modified techniques to ensure safety and comfort for aging individuals, particularly those with fragile skin, reduced muscle mass, joint stiffness, or chronic conditions like arthritis or osteoporosis.
Geriatric clients are individuals, typically aged 60 and older, who may require specialized care due to age-related physical, emotional, or cognitive changes. These clients often face unique challenges associated with aging, such as declining physical health, chronic conditions, reduced mobility, or social isolation, which may make them suitable candidates for specialized services, such as geriatric massage,
