Diabetes is the most frequent condition I have in this category. All therapists need to remember to alert the client to monitor their glucose level after the massage as it may become elevated even though they feel relaxed. I was not aware to ask about the area of injection as that area needs lighter massage or no massage at all. I have not asked when the client has their last injection or if their glucose levels are currently normal but I will begin to do so now.
