And YES! The answers are all yes. They are all performed in the aftercare service.
After the initial massage service with a client, the big question is whether he/she will return for
another appointment.
Rebooking a client to create a relationship is the key to a successful practice.

4.3 Analysis At this point, you are asked to read and understand the discussions about Rebooking a client in the
wellness massage session.
Rebooking a Client
If a therapist has done his/her best to make the client happy and feel that the therapist really cared
about his/her wellness and helped the client achieve his/her objectives for the massage, it is more
likely that the client will be a repeat client. If the therapist has established a good connection with the
client, he/she can ask the client if he/she may book the client for another appointment, or the
therapist may request permission to send the client an e-mail or message about upcoming promotions;
thereby encouraging the client to stay in touch with the therapist.
To encourage clients to book the next appointment, a therapist may follow the ways given below:
1. Assess the client’s condition before and after the massage. Recommend when is the best time for
him/her to do
follow-up massage to maintain the good results. After all, any chronic problem that the client wants to
eliminate cannot be fixed in just one massage session.
2. If the client is experiencing chronic pain and other muscle pains, suggest a massage regimen. The
5 minutes
therapist should let the client know that he/she is interested in helping the client achieve personal
wellness, symptom relief and
relaxation. Heather Corwin, from California, stated his/her strategies in rebooking clients. He said “To
do this, I allow an extra 30 minutes per client. We name goals, note changes since the last session,
and become clear what brought the client into my studio each visit. Having all of this information prior
to working allows me to check in with progress, determine my course of action, and follow up. From
there, I am able to create future goals that complement the client‘s goal that session. For example, if
my client came in with sciatic pain, I can discuss the importance of growing support for the pelvis
through other areas of the body, as well as explaining the relationships of the participating muscles.
By outlining what we might accomplish by addressing those areas, the client knows I am interested in
her personal wellness. People seeking relief in the body do so because they are in need of change.
When I suggest my strategy of change for the client, the client often returns.”
Strategies Used in Rebooking Clients
1. Making them feel welcome and at home with a friendly ―Hello, so good to see you‖ as they arrived,
as well as ―I really appreciate you being here, as they were leaving.
2. Asking them to set future appointments before leaving the office. (Always assuming they wanted to
return).
3. Providing effective, quality massage therapy sessions.
4. Timely service, including not shorting their time (an hour in my office meant 60 or more minutes).
5. Being diplomatic.
6. Fresh, clean linens and lotions.
7. Letting clients know we really cared about them.
8. Keeping talk to a minimum; learning to listen.
9. A refreshing, warm, cheerful atmosphere
10. Reasonable fees
