Using touch therapy

Massaging

Implementation

A UK specialist in the health of the elderly reported that all the active therapies, such as reflexology and aromatherapy, provided some benefit to elderly people, notably relief in the pain and immobility caused by arthritis, a lifting of depression, the development of a more positive frame of mind and a reduction in agitation, insomnia and wandering.

Claim

The personal touch provided by therapist is of the highest importance, is vital to health and peace of mind and is not just an optional extra: it is central to care and the quality of life.
