We know, massage therapy feels SO good, especially when we are under stress or in are pain! And we always hate turning people away. Yet, sometimes there are conditions that are contraindicated (inadvisable) for massage for health and safety reasons. This is certainly not an extensive list, and there are many more conditions that are at least partially contraindicated. If you are suffering from any malady or condition that you fail to inform your therapist of, you could be putting yourself, your therapist, or other patrons health or lives at risk. It is CRITICAL you communicate an accurate health status with your therapist. Massage therapy not only has a local effect on the tissues being treated, but also can have profound reflexive and systemic effects via the nervous, circulatory, lymphatic, myofascial, skeletal and other body systems. Stay safe! Inform your therapist upon the first visit, and every visit thereafter of current and recent / past health events. ❎👍💚
