When to use this form
Use this consent form before any massage session, especially with new clients, clients returning after an injury or surgery, or anyone who is pregnant or under medical care. It helps you screen for contraindications, set pressure and area preferences, and document clear permission to treat. Mobile therapists can send it ahead of time to reduce intake time onsite. Spas can attach it to bookings for sports, prenatal, or deep tissue sessions to keep records compliant. If you offer other services, pair it with the Beauty salon client intake form or the Skin care consultation form to maintain a consistent, client-safe workflow.
Must Ask Massage Therapy Consent Questions
- Do you have any current medical conditions, injuries, or areas of pain we should know about?
This guides your treatment plan, helps you avoid aggravating issues, and supports safe pressure and techniques. Clear details improve outcomes and protect you and the client with documented clinical reasoning.
- Are you currently pregnant, recently postpartum, or under the care of a physician for any condition?
Pregnancy and active medical care can change what techniques are safe and which positions to avoid. Knowing this ensures appropriate modifications or referral when needed.
- Do you have any allergies or sensitivities (oils, lotions, latex, scents, heat, or cold)?
Product and modality sensitivities affect what you can safely use on the skin and in the room. This prevents reactions and builds trust by honoring comfort and safety.
- What pressure level do you prefer, and which areas should we focus on or avoid?
Preference and boundary questions reduce discomfort and clarify draping and off-limits zones. They also help set measurable goals for the session so you can track progress.
- Do you understand the potential benefits and risks of massage and consent to treatment today?
This is the core of informed consent, confirming the client reviewed risks, alternatives, and the right to stop at any time. If you provide multiple services, keep language aligned with your Hair salon waiver form for consistent policies and recordkeeping.
