Episode 17: Informed Consent in Massage & Manual Therapy: Why Booking Isn't a Yes

If a client booked the session, signed the form, and lay down on the table, did they really say yes?

Booking an appointment isn't consent, and a yes can change mid-session. Jessica Ferrer, LMT explores informed consent in massage and manual therapy: what dentists, surgeons and tattoo artists do well, signed vs. verbal consent, updating intake forms, clients with injury claims, and whether the US should adopt Ontario's sensitive-area consent rules. Balanced, practical, a little funny.
