Pueppi, I did not even know there was a private section! How do I get there?

Hope this helps you.

Hi calmhead247, thanks for sharing your experience! It's great your work may have played such a part in helping your client. I have no doubt that massage can help in these big ways.

One thing I won't have in the mix in this case are the traditional meds that someone with AIDS might be on. This is hospice care, so palliative only, but this is another things to think about because this involves strong pain relievers, so I'd think only the lightest of work would be indicated, maybe even just energy work at some times?
Am I correct in that? The goal is holistic comfort and any pain reduction that can be provided.

pueppi, thank you for the link!....oh wait, i just tried it and it says that forum does not exist, lol

I love hearing about everyone's good experiences! Just sad they exist at all though.

It won't work for you, because you have not asked Site Admin to add you to the Private Section. You have to ask. Sorry, I forgot to mention that.

I thought there was a FAQ about it somewhere, but I am at a loss as to finding it.

Maybe a Site Admin can explain it better.

if they are taking pain meds regularly, you are correct. Don't go too deep since he can't tell his normal pain threshhold
