What Is a Palpation Assessment?
A palpation assessment in massage therapy involves evaluating the health of a person's muscles and other soft tissues by touching these muscles with the fingers and hands. Through a proper palpation assessment, massage therapists can learn a lot about the muscles of their clients, including:
- Which muscles are tight or loose?
- Where any trigger points or adhesions are located?
- Which muscles are inflamed or injured?
- How much pressure to apply to various muscles?
After the massage of any part of the body, please answer these questions and send them to the course instructor.
