Senior Living Communities

Physical Health

• The heat and cold therapies have been shown to relieve symptoms of arthritis, bedsores, headaches, and general aches and pains, providing a higher quality of life. And isn’t this one of the primary goals of everyone involved in a senior care facility?

Emotional Health

• Aroma therapy can ease anxiety, help people relax and sleep better, and improve mental outlook. As such, it is ideal for improving emotional health, particularly in seniors who suffer from Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia, anxiety, situational depression, and insomnia. And families, residents and staff appreciate the option of a natural therapy.

Comfort & Companionship

• The cute, cuddly bears, rabbits and other animals provide a unique package for these therapies and provide tactile stimulation. They are symbols of love, happiness, and friendship, and as such provide comfort and ease loneliness. Not only do they make residents feel better, families often appreciate the opportunity to purchase the Sootheze products for their seniors as a physical expression of their love and concern. They also provide an appropriate way for staff to offer comfort and friendship to residents going through difficult times.

Therapy With Dignity

• The Christine James Home Comfort Collection offers a more luxurious and sophisticated way to obtain the same therapy benefits and includes Hot & Cold Therapy Pads that come in flannel fabric for men. Residents and families appreciate this self-empowering approach and the atmosphere of the facility becomes more comfortable and personalized.

Enhancing Treatment Tools

• By introducing Sootheze products into a senior care facility, administrators add to the therapy resources available. Staff appreciate having additional options and residents benefit from increased interaction with staff and from the therapeutic properties of heat, cold, and aroma therapy.

Sharing Sootheze

• Seniors who know first-hand how beneficial and comforting Sootheze products are often want to share the experience with friends and family. We have a large variety of items in different colors, forms, and price ranges.

Case In Point

Sootheze is working with a leader in the field of senior care communities with hundreds of homes around the world. They currently use our Toasty Bears as part of their therapy with Alzheimer’s patients and general services for residents.

• Staff receive training on how to use the bears and each senior home is given Toasty Bears as part of their pre-opening formulary package when they first open.
• Products also are available for purchase by residents and their families.
• If a resident shows improvement as a result of using the product or forms an attachment to the therapy stuffed animal, staff alert family members and encourage them to purchase one for the senior’s exclusive use.

There are many ways that Sootheze products can be used in your daily work and marketed as part of your gift shop selection. We welcome your ideas and will work with you to create solutions that fit your specific needs and therapy approaches.
