Development of on-site massage therapy program:

Whether you choose to designate a space in your facility specifically for massage therapy, or prefer that residents be seen in the privacy of their rooms, we can work jointly to design a program that meets the needs of your in-house population and respects the duties of staff. Clients or their conservators will be responsible for paying for the massage sessions. This program also includes publicizing the benefits of massage to your residents and family members.
Cost: $95/consultation hour.
