What happens when I visit a Massage Therapist?

by Bruce Jackson, Registered Massage Therapist on May 16, 2007

On your first visit you will complete a health history form and discuss it will your therapist. This ensures that your therapist understands why you have come for massage and understands your overall health.

Once your health history has been completed, an assessment will be conducted to determine how best to approach your treatment. These two steps help ensure that your sessions with us are both safe and effective.

Your massage therapist will propose a treatment plan. You have the choice of accepting the treatment plan, telling the therapist if you want parts of it changed or refusing the plan all together.

Keep in mind that with massage therapy you are in control. If you would like to stop the treatment or change it – it is your choice. You can even change your mind after a treatment has started. Your therapist will respect your decision.
