Recently I found a massage therapist who has experience helping clients who are wheelchair bound. It has been the greatest thing for me. I tell her all the time that she has magic hands. I’ve suffered from low-back pain and hip pain for years.

Her massage therapy sessions typically include some passive stretching and then some muscle-lengthening massage. It has helped me so much. And the fact that she’s aware of specific issues to watch out for those in wheelchairs is just great. She even helps me watch for pressure sores.
