Benefits of Remedial Massage for Old adults

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the difference between your services and a regular relaxation massage?

A: We provide Remedial Massage, which is a clinical approach rather than just a beauty treatment. We focus on assessment and targeted therapy to address specific issues such as muscle pain, joint stiffness, and circulation problems, whereas a standard massage is often limited to superficial relaxation.

Q2: Do I need to undress for the massage?

A: Your comfort and dignity are our top priorities. The treatment can be fully customized: it can be performed over loose, comfortable clothing, or we can use professional draping techniques with towels if you prefer. We will always work within your comfort zone.

Q3: Is massage safe if I have health conditions like osteoporosis or diabetes?

A: Safety is at the heart of what we do. As highly experienced professionals, we conduct a thorough health assessment before starting. We adjust our pressure and techniques based on your specific condition (such as bone density or skin fragility) to ensure the treatment is gentle, safe, and effective.

Q4: Are your therapists qualified?

A: Absolutely. All our therapists hold government-accredited qualifications and are members of professional bodies (such as AMT). Furthermore, every staff member maintains a current National Police Check, valid professional insurance, and First Aid certification, fully complying with the Aged Care Act 2024.

Q5: Can massage really help improve my sleep?

A: Yes. Clinical studies show that massage reduces cortisol (the stress hormone) and promotes the release of serotonin. Many of our elderly clients report falling asleep more easily and experiencing deeper, more restorative sleep following their sessions.

Q6: Can I have a massage if I have limited space at home or in my aged care room?

A: Certainly. Our mobile equipment is highly adaptable. We only need a small area to set up a massage table or a comfortable supportive chair. We bring everything required—including the table, linens, and oils—so you can simply relax in your own environment.

Q7: How do I pay, and can I use my Support-at-Home fund(previous Home Care Package (HCP))?

A: If you are with a provider that allows for allied health services or have a self-managed Home Care Package, our remedial massage is typically eligible for reimbursement. We recommend checking with your Case Manager regarding your specific funding and limits.
