Brochures Related to Massage & Dementia

by Susan Clingman

Jan 13, 2011

I go weekly to a local assisted living facility which caters to those with dementia-related diseases.   As it is an assisted living facility, I've lost three clients who I regularly saw and worked with.  I am trying to put together a brochure on the benefits of massage for dementia, but was wondering if anyone had already made one up that I could borrow from.  Not all families live in the area, so the activities director I work with suggested a brochure that could be given to the families to let them know the service is available, along with a coupon (buy 5 minutes, get 5 minutes).  Thanks in advance.  BTW, I'm enjoying reading the "Validation Breakthrough" and I am better able to understand the residents I'm working with.

    Hello Susan,  Natural Touch Marketing makes a good brochure that is well put together , I think it is titled Elder Care Massage.  :)

    Hope this helps.

    Susan, I'm happy to hear about your work with people with Alzheimer's. I'm sending some information that lists specific benefits as well as a related article.

    All the best,
