What is the use of a SOAP Note in massage therapy? What benefits do they pose to clients and therapists? Our template was created to assist you in recording client information, types of messages received, and any subsequent notes. It is very user-friendly and can be tailored to meet your requirements.

SOAP notes for massage therapy are an essential part of keeping the client records intact, tracking their improvement over a certain period, and most importantly ensuring that there is continuity of care. They also assist in speaking to other health professionals if required and give proper evidence of treatment attended.

Massage SOAP notes are universal objective criteria utilized by massage therapists to document the details of the client and the treatment rendered. The acronym SOAP means Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan, which captures all relevant details about the client's status and treatment as well as the plan for the client.

Here’s a breakdown of each section:

Subjective (S): This portion encompasses the client’s account of the situation and symptoms alongside the history of the condition. More often the section captures the client's feelings, experiences, and complaints as expressed in their own words. For example:

"Client reports lower back pain after lifting heavy objects."
"Client feels tension in the shoulders and neck."

Objective (O): In this segment, the therapist presents quantifiable and can be seen data. It incorporates physical assessments like:

Degrees of movement range
Evaluation of posture
Tightness or tenderness of a muscle that can be felt

Assessment (A): This section describes a therapist's evaluation of a client, formed from both subjective and objective facts. It may include:

Analyzing muscle imbalance to select appropriate treatment
Identification of any potential problem areas
Evaluation of progress relative to previous sessions in the form of progress notes.

Plan (P): This particular section of the paper indicates treatment strategies and recommendations for a given client. It covers the following:

Explanation of the various massage techniques that were applied,
The number of future sessions: their frequency and duration,
Tasks or self-care instructions are given to the client.
