The Solo Practice Client Paperwork Kit
Intake form, consent & liability waiver, deposit/cancellation policy, and no-show follow-up emails — four documents built specifically for a one-person massage or bodywork practice, not adapted from a clinic or salon template where half the fields don't apply to you.
What's in it
- Client Intake & Health History Form — the questions worth asking before a first session, and no more than that.
- Informed Consent & Liability Waiver — plain-language consent your client will actually read.
- Deposit & Cancellation Policy — fill-in-the-blank wording you can paste straight into your booking software's settings.
- No-Show Follow-Up Email Templates — three short emails for the moment right after a missed appointment, so you're not writing one from scratch while frustrated.
Why we made this
Two things we wrote kept saying the same thing. Our guide on digital intake and consent forms and our guide on reducing no-shows both land on the same point: your booking software can enforce a policy, but deciding what that policy actually says is still on you. This kit is that starting point — written for a one-person practice specifically, with placeholders you fill in rather than a template built for someone else's business.
Every document that carries legal weight (the waiver, the policy) says plainly that it's a starting template, not a substitute for a local lawyer or your professional association reviewing it for your state or province — we'd rather tell you that upfront than have the kit sound more finished than a template can honestly be.
Who this is for
Solo massage therapists and bodyworkers — mobile, home-studio, or renting a single room — who want to stop re-writing the same policy conversation over and over, or who are setting up a practice for the first time and don't want to start from a blank page.
