For several years now Pure Pro has partnered with the Center for Compassionate Touch. Elders and those in the later stages of life directly impact many of our practices and we have the ability to deeply enhance their quality of life through the healing work that we do.
Director Ann Catlin has this to say about our work together:
"As we have talked it has occurred to me that we all have something very important in common -- a vision to uplift, through our work, the communities we serve."
Compassionate Touch recommends these Pure Pro products:
Pro Touch Massage Lotion Soften dehydrated and delicate skin with the most gentle, pH balanced, unscented massage and facial lotion. With just enough slip to smoothly move over even the most fragile skin, you'll nourish skin cells and improve circulation without compromising skin integrity. This completely unscented and nut free soothing lotion is loved by hospice and nursing care workers nationwide for its gentleness and clean feel. Ideal for hand and neck massage, soothing dry or fragile skin and helping to prevent bed sores.

Perfect for Diabetic daily foot care to help relieve the symptoms of neuropathy and establish a safe and effective foot care regimen.
Hand in Hand Symposium
Pure Pro is proud to sponsor the groundbreaking Hand In Hand Symposium presented by Compassionate Touch in May 2009.
May 1st through 3rd join the Center for Compassionate Touch at the Caribe Royale in Orlando, FL, to celebrate the mutual benefits of massage therapy in eldercare and hospice.
The massage and bodywork professions are expanding to answer the growing demand for therapists with training to serve elders in long term care and individuals in hospice care. This networking event provides the opportunity to connect with pioneering, like-minded professionals and attend inspirational and informational seminars.
What does our partnership bring to you? Those who participate in the Certified Practitioner Training receive complimentary Pure Pro Pedango Cream and Pro Touch Massage Lotion. These products are endorsed by Compassionate Touch for use with elderly and hospice populations.
