Professionalism & Consent

Draping will be used during the session – only the area being worked on will be uncovered. Draping will always be professional, modest, and secure. Informed written consent and informed verbal consent must be given before the Massage Therapist works on areas such as glutes and/or pecs (chest).

I , understand that the massage I receive is provided for the basic purpose of relaxation and relief of muscular tension. If I experience any pain or discomfort during this massage session, I will immediately inform the therapist so that the pressure and/or strokes may be adjusted to my level of comfort. I further understand that massage should not be construed as a substitute for medical examination, diagnosis, or treatment and that I should see physician, chiropractor or other qualified medical specialist for any mental or physical ailment that I am aware of. I understand that massage therapists are not qualified to perform spinal or skeletal adjustments, diagnose, prescribe, or treat any physical or mental illness, and that nothing said in the course of the session given should be construed as such. Because massage should not be performed under certain medical conditions, I affirm that I have stated all my known medical conditions, and answered all questions honestly. I agree to keep the therapist updated as to any changes in my medical profile and understand that there shall be no liability on the therapist’s part should I fail to do so. I understand that any illicit or sexually suggestive remarks or advances made by me will result in immediate termination of the session. I also understand that the License Massage Therapist reserves the right to refuse to perform massage on anyone whom he/she deems to have a condition for which massage is contraindicated.
