Massage Therapy and Bodywork Therapists including Acupuressure, Shiatsu, Tui Na and other forms of bodywork are requested. Bodywork has been proven to increase comfort by decreasing anxiety and stress and promoting relaxation which often causes better sleep. We desire to help patients have a comfortable and dignified end of life experience. Massage therapy would help immensely with this goal. We frequently have patients ask for massage/bodywork, not just anyone is able to provide that, we need trained professionals. A volunteer therapist with TRU knows they are making a real difference in the lives of our hospice patients. As a volunteer you choose which patient assignments you accept. We see patients all over the Boulder and Denver Metro area. A bodywork therapist commits to seeing their hospice patients 4x and then re-evalutes. We always have a waiting list for patients waiting to benefit from bodywork. Our requirments of Bodywork Therapists includes a certification and professional liability insurance. TRU Community Care, formerly Hospice Care of Boulder and Broomfield Counties, has been serving our community since 1976. We are a nonprofit organizations which works to ensure that everyone in our community can live with advanced illness as comfortably, confidently, and fully as possible.
