pattibiro 0 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 Hello to All! If you have ever thought about including hand massage or other massage activities in your community this course will give you lots of great ideas-and 6 hours of approved continuing professional education! The benefits of massage for the older adult are well documented in research and many senior communities are including massage-and self massage as part of their activity and wellness programs. Four courses are scheduled in May and June in the Texas/New Mexico area. Please check my website for information on the courses! www.pattibiro.com Best wishes!

Patti Kim! thanks for your comments- and did you know that Medicare will pay for massage for specific conditions? Many family practice clinics and health care providers are now including massage as part of their treatment plans. Better yet-active seniors can be taught self massage techniques to reduce tension and increase flexibiity! Patti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
