Sessions are limited to 30 minutes due to the possible negative effects of overloading the nervous system, heart and kidneys. Greatly increasing blood flow with “regular” massage can be detrimental to an elderly person. Studies have shown that geriatric massage can reduce certain medications. An in-depth treatment plan with specific goals is created with close communication with physicians and other members of your eldercare team. Please call for pricing.
