Thank you so much. Ive recently started working a day a week in a private care home (UK), which includes dementia care. Your tips have not inly reaffirmed im doung the right thing, but given me some additional considerations. Loving your anatomy tutorials and massage techniques, helping me to be a great therapist ❤
Congratulations on being an amazing therapist!!!! This world definitely needs more therapist like yourself. It always warms my heart when I read comments where they are learning & benefitting! You’re helping change the world one massage at a time!!!
Thank you Maria, thank you Shirley for offering as a a volunteer so we can learn!❤
Maria Isabelle you’re the greatest. I will let Shirley read the comments! Hope all is well with you! 🙏🤗❤️
I love Maria and her way of teaching!!! She is my inspiration for being better a massage therapist!!!

Hi Maria & Shirley ⭐ thanks for this video ❤ working with elder clients they're the best.
Yes they are! I totally agree!
Shirley looks amazing for her age, she must look after herself very well. I’m guessing the massage is able to keep her joints nice and mobile since if you don’t use it you lose it. I’m probably gonna make massage a regular occurrence as I get older, hopefully I’ll still be as good of health as Shirley. Wishing both her and you the best!
Yes she’s always been very active. Even though the knee surgeries slow her down a little now. The massage video comes out tomorrow so you can listen to some of her stories.
I hope to get massages at that age😊way to go ❤
Right!!!
Thank you bec of her and your passion it opened my mind to our elderly people they do need massage ❤
I’m so happy to read that it helped you to understand the geriatric generation!
Ms. W looks great!
I think so too! I will let her read these comments. She’s going to be thrilled ❤️
Wow, 88 years old. Ma'am Shirley is really a great star still active in swimming that's nice! my elder client also said that massage is the secret to look younger.😊😍
That is awesome! The elderly are so much fun!
Thank you and hugs for you and Shirley from Brazil!
Thank you so much. I will let Shirley know. 🙏🤗❤️
Tell Shirley that we are all Stars! This body is just our starship!❤🎉

niceeee… thankz for sharing. i really appreciate your sharing.🙏🏽🙏🏽
My pleasure!!!! ❤️🤗
We love Shirley!! 👏🏼
We sure do! Thank you very much for your feedback
I know that you mentioned hx of thrombosis or clots but what about with edema? Are there other considerations or techniques to consider for pts? Such as pooling? Is it any different than lymphatic massage?
Yes you must be very careful with someone with pitting edema. Depending on how bad it is. I have refused a massage before to a client that was extremely swollen where her ankles looked like elephant stumps. She also had heart problems so you don’t want to tax the heart if you move to much lymph in a session. Medical history & release from a doctor is best.
Lovely advice thank you
You are so welcome 🤗🌼
