It is my choice to receive massage therapy and body work, I realize the treatment is being given for the well being of my body and mind. This includes stress reduction, relief from muscular tension, spasm or pain, or for increasing circulation or energy flow. I agree to communicate with my practitioner any time I feel like my well being is being compromised.I understand that massage practitioners do not diagnose illness, disease or any physical or mental disorder, nor do they prescribe medical treatment, pharmaceuticals, or perform spinal thrust manipulations, I acknowledge that massage is not a substitute for medical examination or diagnosis, and that is recommended that I see a primary health care provider for that service.
