Massage Intake Form
What a massage intake form asks, why each part matters, and how practices collect it.
A massage intake form collects what a massage therapist needs before the first session: health conditions, medicines, areas of pain, and the pressure the client prefers. It's also called a massage therapy intake form.
Massage intake form, handled by an AI avatar
An AI healthcare assistant avatar asks the questions on a massage intake form in the client's own language, strictly following the practice's instructions.
- Intake before the first session. Clients answer online before they arrive, or at a kiosk when they check in.
- Answers ready for the therapist. Therapists see what the client said before the session starts.
- Less workload at the front desk. Staff spend less time handing out forms and entering answers by hand.
- Key details at a glance. The therapist sees what matters up front and decides what needs attention first.
The form becomes a natural conversation: clients answer by talking, in their own words. The avatar is an information and client-assistance interface. It collects answers for the therapist to review. It doesn't diagnose, triage, or give treatment advice.
