I have done chair massage at diabetes support groups in the past, always with a warm reception. A couple weeks back, I did one for Parkinsons. I did a little chair massage, and talked briefly (Im not much on public speaking  lol) about the benefits of massage for Parkinsons pts, and brought along some good info for the caregivers. Was wondering if anyone else does this kind of thing? I didnt go into doing the groups for any hope of profit, just something that made me feel good. This last group, though, I ended up with 3 new clients :}   ya do good things from the heart, good things follow you.

Hi I do chair massage at our Ronald McDonald House ( for St. Jude) for the mothers.  Every mothers day I team up with a local church youth group they do crafts with the kids and I releive a little stress. The moms Love it. They often forget ...to take care of others you have to take care of yourself.

I have done chair massage at a retreat for women who have been through trauma. The retreat was very intense, and on Saturday when each person had a surprise 10 minute massage, it helped them alot.Had to borrow a chair, but it was well worth it. I am planning to go to the domestic violence shelter when I am able to get a chair.. Also maybe to the rape response center to volunteer chair massage. I think these people really need a healing touch.I met someone from a cancer support group and they want me to speak to them. Giving back is good for the community as a whole, to the individuals who touch and to yourself.
