What to Expect PTNM FOR SENIOR LIVING RESIDENTS

TREATMENT IN THE COMFORT OF YOUR OWN ROOM

A clinician will meet with you to discuss the therapy and evaluate whether you are a good candidate for the treatment. If you are a candidate, the clinician will typically administer the therapy in the comfort of your own room.

Rest assured, the stimulation is gentle. Although you may feel a slight tingling in your heel or the base of your foot, it should not be painful.

During the 30-minute therapy sessions, you will be seated in a comfortable chair and free to read, listen to music, watch television, or visit with family members.

KEY POINTS FOR FAMILY MEMBERS

  • The stimulation is gentle and it should not be painful.
  • A clinician will determine if your family member is a candidate for the therapy.
  • Family members are welcome to attend the therapy sessions.
