Characteristics of a Geriatric Massage
Though a geriatric massage therapy will involve the use of some of the basic methods that are used in other massage types, there are some characteristics that make the massage unique and some of these are:
  • Short sessions: A geriatric massage should not take more than thirty minutes. However, there are exceptions like when the client is bedridden or is confined to a wheelchair where the session will take longer.
  • Gentle stretching: Geriatric massage will involve gentle stretches of the legs, shoulders, and the feet. This will aid in improving the mobility of the senior citizen and also make him more flexible.
  • Massaging of the feet and hands: This will ensure that every pain and stiffness in the hands and feet are no more.
  • Pressure strokes: The use of pressure strokes may also be part of the massage especially in the neck and shoulder region to help in improving flexibility.
Geriatric massage should be carried out on a massage table that is endowed with a thick pad to help in keeping the client warm. This is because an elderly person can easily get cold and you would not want to lose your client because every time he comes for a massage, he develops a cold.
You can also allow the senior citizen to keep some of his clothes on so that he will be more comfortable during the massage. If the client is uncomfortable or is unable to come for a massage therapy at the spa, you can make arrangements to have the massage carried out at home. This will not only win your client’s trust but will make the client know that you are not just after his money but you are also looking out for him.
You should ensure that you do not use too much pressure as the body is quite sensitive and could easily get bruised or have a bone fracture which will not be too good for your spa’s reputation.
