Your First Massage Visit
On your first visit, you will be asked to complete a written confidential health history form. Your therapist will perform a complete physical assessment so they can determine the best approach to your treatment. This may involve a postural assessment, range of motion testing, and palpating for pain or tenderness. This information is used to address your chief complaint and to plan the massage session. This process allows your therapist to provide a safe and effective massage therapy treatment.
