Some of the members of the Red Cross Kanturk /Millstreet Therapeutic Hand Care Team on recently receiving their Therapeutic Hand Care certificates.
This service is provided by Irish Red Cross volunteers trained to give free hand massage and manicure to men and women in our local hospitals and community events.
A visit from one of our practitioners is often welcome company, boosting morale as well as improving clients’ mobility and therefore overall quality of life. Hand massage has proved highly beneficial to those with painful and stiff joints relieving soreness and improving joint flexibility.
For further information on receiving these services or training to provide them, please contact your local Irish Red Cross Branch.
