Massage Pathology Chronicles

Review of Mosby’s Pathology for Massage Therapists, 2nd edition, by Salvo and Anderson. Within the course of Dr. Johnson.

The chapter begins with discussion about client assessment. Client intake forms and interview are discussed next. Client intake forms should request personal, contact, health, medical, and emergency contact information. It should also request regular physician and health care provider information as well. The purpose of the interview with the client is to screen for contraindications and determine the need for any adaptive measures. Next, the five steps of treatment planning are discussed along with formulation of the plans. The chapter ends with recommendations for subsequent sessions.
