What's New??
This
brochure replaces our earlier brochure: Supporting Home or Facility
Care with Therapeutic Massage. We think you’ll like
what you find!
- More
family friendly.
You’ve
told us that the main decision-makers for this work are often
family members. So we’ve made the new brochure warmer
and less clinical. While still appropriate for staff and administrators
in care facilities, it now also speaks to both hearts and minds
of facility residents and their loved ones.
- Updated
to reflect changes in the field.
Updated
content reflects input from our customers, interviews with
successful practitioners and experts in the field, and reviews
of recent literature.
- Easier-to-read
with new, contemporary design.
Gorgeous
nature photographs, larger typeface and more readable language
make this brochure hard to put down.
- New
quotes.
Quotes
now reflect the experience of elderly and ill clients and their
caregivers.
BONUS!
We have moved some of the more technical information (on how massage
can fit administratively into a care facility). It is now available
as a separate, downloadable handout. Graphically compatible with
the brochure, its question and answer format is easily scanned by
busy administrators and staff.
