Geriatric Massage Fundamentals
What you’ll learn
-
Picture yourself going through a whole day of work, generously giving, and walking away still feeling energized. Imagine your hands feeling relaxed and your heart feeling full from all the interaction with your clients! It IS possible through Geriatric Massage!!!
As Baby Boomers age, they are changing the way we look at retirement and growing older. When you become trained in Geriatric Massage, you will learn the importance of this very large population and how they are impacting the massage therapy field. You will also gain understanding about the physical and mental changes that occur with aging, then learn how to properly adjust your techniques for frail and robust seniors. Â
The online course, Geriatric Massage Fundamentals will help you better understand the elderly population and some of the emotional impacts life brings their way. Through informative videos of seated and table massage, you learn how to adjust your technique and gain confidence to start working worth this underserved demographic.Â
So many of our elders are left alone and many feel very isolated. Geriatric Massage helps senior citizens connect with other people by fighting feelings of isolation, restlessness, and uselessness that many elderly suffer from. Part of being a good massage therapist includes developing a strong emotional and physical connection that clients respond to. Learn how you can help, connect and impact this “untouched” population.Â
Who this course is for:
- This course is for you if… you are ready to work with an underserved population and your career needs a shift in a heart centered direction.
- This course is NOT for you if… you are not willing to invest and welcome support and you are afraid of facing end of life experiences.

I learned so much in giving a massage to Senior’s I Love it, I will be also be giving a massage to my Senior mom.
Siri Sawdy –
I experienced great benefit of my previous knowledge in the field of massage therapy as I think otherwise I would have found the course and articles a little superficial. The instructional videos are great and give the course the foundation and depth it needs. This is a brilliant course if you are a massage therapist looking towards new fields.

Nice written instructions to follow video but some typos are disconcerting for a professional endeavor. Nice clear instructive videos.

It was good. The only critique I would give would be to have her check the subtitles. They are NOT correct.
