Massage Software & Office Tools

The massage field is a growing industry with opportunities for therapists who are looking to open their own offices. A massage therapist carries her business in her hands, literally, but there are a few other tools on the market that help a massage therapy office run smoothly, especially billing management software and tools.

Office Management Software

• Office management software includes programs that manage appointments and payments. The appointment software is usually organized as a spreadsheet. Office management software helps the busy massage therapist stay on top of payments due and received.

Massage Table

• A massage table seems like an obvious office tool but it is essential to have the right table for the style of massage you'll be practicing. A good massage table must be able to bear the weight of all your clients, adjust to different heights for different types of treatments and be easy for the therapists to work around.

Filing System

• An organized filing system will simplify the check-in process and give you the ability to track your client's progress. A filing system can either be a paper filing system, or you can store it on the hard-drive of your office computer. Filing systems must meet HIPAA standards to protect the patient's privacy.
