Aged Care Clients

I have brokered services from Taking Care Mobile Massage for six years now for a variety of service users.

Whilst massage is not recognised officially as an allied health stratagem in the context of enhanced primary care government funding; I have used this service with great success for client’s whose needs are often complicated by co-morbidities, frail and debility and those with mental health issues with symptoms of anxiety and depression.

In almost all cases, the feedback I get from clients is that the service proved to be particularly useful in treating symptoms of pain and anxiety. Massage to most minds I would think would bring imagery of firm hands and a manipulation of muscles. In the case of frail and elderly, the treatment required needs by necessity to be adjusted to meet the health condition of the recipient.

There is also a necessity to reassure vulnerable older people that their dignity will be preserved, that their experience is valued and that they will not be rushed. Something the elders in our community are not always granted as a matter of course that it should be. I have found with Taking Care Mobile Massage that they are uniquely placed to meet all of these criteria and as a result often provide ongoing services for clients on a regular basis with particular satisfaction being the outcome.

Just letting you know that mum is very happy with Rukshi and really looks forward to her fortnightly visits. Rukshi is helping to relieve some of mums back pain and is also providing another point of social contact.

This service contributes greatly to enabling mum to stay living independently (at 93!).

Many thanks

Thanks very much for your great service, I am so happy I found your business when I did – I wish I knew about you years earlier.

Joe is a very lovely lovely guy.  It also worked out well that he could also speak Croatian with my dad.  Joe always treated my dad with such dignity and respect and we are most grateful.

Taking Care Mobile Massage has been partnering with us for over two years to provide twice weekly massage sessions for the residents as part of our pain management strategy.

I have found their therapists to be dedicated, professional and caring as they go about their work. The residents look forward to their weekly massages and are very positive about the treatments and the benefit they enjoy from them.

Regular tactile therapy is an important part of resident wellbeing and provides an excellent opportunity for social interaction through quality one on one time. I am happy to recommend Taking Care Mobile Massage to anyone looking for a service provider with integrity and experience to provide first class care.
