Massage Health History: Fill & Download for Free

No one can answer that without knowing what oils were used, the clients health history and medications… a full intake. If you were the recipeint.. same questions.. what EO’s.. what total dilution? I’ve never seen a reaction to St. John’s Wort infused, but that doesn’t mean it couldn’t happen.

Old question, but I wanted to chime in anonymously. (I don't want people to know about my daughter's health history ad I believe that is hers to share. I'm weird. It's ok.)My daughter contracted whooping cough as a baby. We're kind of hippies and have many friends who don't vaccinate. We also are in an area where whooping cough is very prevalent.She lived. Thank God. Yet it damaged her lungs to the point where she had major problems for awhile. We spent years lying awake, taking turns to watch her so she didn't aspirate on her vomit because she coughed so hard she would throw up. She has stunted height and weight because she was such a sickly child. We have had a nebulizer parked on her nightstand since she was a baby. You have no idea what it is like to accidentally doze off and wake up in a panic, wondering if your beloved child is still breathing. It was awful.I pair that with the knowledge of my sweet great-aunt who contracted polio as a child. She was one of multiple children in her family. Several of the others died. My aunt, however, lived. Her body was so deformed and broken, so never walked. She was in a wheelchair with her arms and legs drawn up. Her nurses would have to massage her broken, wasted legs and feet because she would get such awful Charlie horses that she was in agony.Is it likely that your kid will get sick if you live in the US? Maybe not. (Although, you don't know what the future brings and you have no idea whether you'll be in a location that suddenly has an outbreak like we did!) All I know is that I won't take that chance for my kids or anyone's kids who are around our family. I would never wish the kind of illness my kid had on another family. We vaccinate.

Depending on where you live, giving massage for money or for barter without a license may be illegal.Also, it's important to know that without a proper education you may harm yourself or others. Health and labor regulations are there to make sure that the people receiving a massage from you are safe from harm.As a licensed massage practitioner I am required to take a health history and ask about previous injuries before I work on someone. Conditions like cancer, diabetes, heart disease, and high blood pressure (to name only a few) can be exacerbated by massage.Finally, I have been taught to spot skin diseases and other conditions that might be transmitted to me while giving a massage. It's important to have this kind of knowledge so you don't put yourself at risk.
