| Abstract | “Comfy Acupressure for the Elderly” is developed on the basis of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) theory and practice, with an aim to improve the quality of life or even prevent the progressive advancement of frailty among the frail elderly. It has 12 steps and mainly concentrates on the acu-points on face, head, neck and shoulder. This 15-minute treatment protocol is designed to be operated by informal caregivers after proper training; all chosen acu-points are easy to locate and all techniques that demand professional training or involve potential risks (e.g. joint mobilisation) are excluded from the protocol. |
