Geriatric Massage

Geriatric massage is tailored to fit the needs of the elderly population. This therapy uses gentle and light application of massage techniques and can include passive stretching and a light oil or lotion to permit your muscles to be worked on without causing excessive friction to the skin. These techniques help to improve blood circulation, relieve pain, and increase range of motion. It is also comforting and nurturing, aiding in reducing symptoms of anxiety and depression often associated with aging.
