When your aging family member is homebound for one reason or another, there are lots of little services that become more difficult for her to access when she needs them. Having spa services at home to help her can make a huge difference for your elderly family member.
Hair Cutting and Washing and Hair Styling
When it’s difficult for your senior to leave her home, it’s very easy for her hair to grow out of control and become a problem to manage. Add in difficulties with washing her hair herself, and your aging family member may feel unkempt more often than not. Having trained professionals visiting her at home to help with washing and trimming her hair can give your senior a tremendous morale boost.
Sometimes your senior needs just a little help with styling her hair, whether that’s for a special occasion or as a weekly treat. Styling her own hair might have been something that she was able to handle on her own for a long time, but physical challenges can make that difficult. Even if this is something your senior still does on her own most of the time, it’s a good feeling to have someone else take over the task.
Spa Services at Home Perform Hair Removal
Aging brings with it a lot of challenges and changes, and one of those can be hair growing in places that it never used to before. Having spa services at home coming to her gives your aging family member a chance to have unwanted hair removed without having to go anywhere to do so. This can be a huge relief if she’s embarrassed or if mobility is difficult for her.
Manicures and Pedicures
Nail care is more than just pampering or decorative. Your aging family member’s nails may be getting thicker and more difficult for her to trim on her own. By having a licensed manicurist coming to her, your senior is able to have her nails cared for safely and in a comfortable environment. Nail care technicians are able to ensure that your senior’s fingernails and toenails are trimmed properly and that there aren’t sharp edges that could cause injury.
Facials and Massage
Facials are also more than just pampering. They help to remove dead cells from the surface of your senior’s skin, help with circulation, and ensure that her skin is in good condition. Spa services at home ensure that your elderly family member’s skin is cared for properly. This can also help to relieve stress for her, particularly if she’s experiencing cognitive changes or other health issues.
Massage is relaxing, but it can also help to improve the range of motion and reduce pain for your elderly family member. It’s even more beneficial when licensed massage therapists can come to your senior in her own home. That saves her from having to leave her home in order to get the help that she needs.
There may be other spa services at home that can help your elderly family member. Occupational therapists can help her to determine what else might be useful for her.

Beth’s inspired her to always desire great care for seniors and has been working and advocating for seniors since 1988. She earned a degree in Special Education from the Pennsylvania State University and a juris doctorate from Hofstra University. Beth became an elder care attorney to advocate for both the elderly and people living with handicaps before started a home care agency in 2003.
Her passion has always been to ensure that her clients receive better care than her grandparents had, and she works tirelessly to make sure that happens. Her motto and belief has always been and will always be that she (and her staff) will care for your family as we would our own!
For years, Beth has “thought outside the box” and imagined a company that could supplement the in-home care that many seniors need. In-home care provides assistance with the activities of daily living, but many seniors are homebound for a variety of reasons: their physical condition, not being able to drive, mobility concerns, or because they believe that being at home (especially during the COVID-19 pandemic) was the safest place to be.
During the pandemic, Beth made the decision to launch Max Health and Wellness. She envisioned the need to provide additional in-home services to those who need them, specifically therapeutic solutions to create wellness and self-care experiences for seniors and others. These services will range from clinical therapy services such as physical, occupational and speech therapy, mental health counselling, non-medical massage therapy and reflexology, nutritional counseling, and at-home salon/spa services such as therapeutic facial and hair styling.
Beth’s goal is that all of the health and wellness services offered by Max Health and Wellness will MAXIMIZE the quality of life and well-being of seniors throughout the state of New Jersey. She looks forward to having you experience our concierge therapeutic services and treatments.
