Free Massage Therapist
Service Agreement
One 'slipped disc' lawsuit from a litigious client will gut your bank account and leave your career on the scrap heap. Without a locked-in cancellation policy, a few no-shows will turn your professional studio into an expensive hobby you can't afford.
Pro Contractor Tip
Include a 'Late Cancellation' clause that bills the full service rate for any no-show or cancellation under 24 hours.
Why use a written agreement?
Handshake deals are risky. As a Massage Therapist, "scope creep" is your biggest enemy. A clear agreement ensures everyone agrees on the deliverables before money changes hands.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do I do when a client demands 'off-menu' services that aren't professional?
Shut it down. Use your 'Scope of Practice' clause to define exactly what the work is, making it clear that any deviation ends the session immediately with no refund.
How do I handle clients who stroll in 15 minutes late but want the full hour?
Your contract should state the clock starts at the scheduled time; they pay for the time slot they booked, not just the minutes they are on the table.
What if a client claims the massage made their injury worse to avoid paying the bill?
Point to your 'Informed Consent' and 'Release of Liability' sections where they acknowledged the risks; it keeps the conversation on the invoice, not their excuses.
