Key benefits

💵

One-time payment

No monthly fee, no per-therapist charge and no yearly renewal. The price you see is the whole price.

📝

SOAP notes that clear themselves

Every note is linked to its visit, and a session with no note waits in a charting backlog until you write it.

🎟

Packs that count themselves

Sell a 10-session pack, book visits against it, and the sessions left update on their own.

🛡

Claims you can track and print

Doctor-referred visits become draft claims, aged by days open, with a printable superbill.

What this massage therapist software does

Everything a small practice runs on, in one place.

You get a dashboard, clients, SOAP notes, appointments and a month calendar, packages and memberships, insurance billing, sales and expenses.

Services, therapists, products, suppliers and reports are included too.

You can print every note, claim and report on your own letterhead, export every list to CSV and back up to a JSON file. The app is in US English.

Clients with the notes a therapist needs

Contact details, date of birth, pressure preference, focus areas, health history, contraindications and allergies, insurance payer and member ID, whether the intake form is signed and how they found you.

Treatment history with a pain trend

Open a client to see their alerts first, then the pain-before and pain-after scores from every SOAP note drawn as a line, their packages and their next visit.

Rebooking and renewal reminders

Clients with no visit in 28 days (you can change the number) and nothing booked appear on the dashboard, so regulars do not drift away. A license or liability policy that expires within 60 days raises an alert.

Therapists, licenses and commission

Each therapist has a role, a license number and expiry, a liability insurance date and a commission percentage, with a performance summary for any period.

Products and suppliers

Oils, aromatherapy, hot and cold therapy, linens and table supplies with a reorder level, so a low-stock alert shows before you run out.

Find, print and export

One Find button searches clients, therapists, services, appointments, notes and claims at once. Every list has Print and CSV buttons, and Export All Tables writes everything into one file for your accountant.

SOAP note software for massage therapists

Seven sessions, seven notes, none forgotten.

Charting is the job that slips at the end of a full day. Here is how this SOAP note software keeps it from slipping.

Subjective, Objective, Assessment, Plan

Pain before and after on a 0–10 scale, the pressure used, areas treated, techniques and home care advice, all on one note.

Linked to the appointment

Click a session in the Charting Backlog and a new note opens with the client, therapist and date already filled in.

A counter you cannot miss

A red counter on the dashboard and the SOAP Notes menu shows completed sessions that have no note yet.

Prints on your letterhead

Each note prints with your practice details and a signature line. Choose “Save as PDF” in the print dialog to email one.

Massage therapist scheduling software: what it does and what it does not

You book the visit. Clients cannot book themselves.

If you are looking for scheduling software for a massage therapist, this is the one limit to weigh first. Everything behind the desk is here; the part where a client books from a phone is not.

What you can do

Book a visit by client, therapist, service, room, date and time, track its status and how it is paid, add a tip, see the month on a calendar colored by status and print today’s day sheet with each client’s pressure preference and alerts.

What it does not do

No online booking page or app for clients, no text or email reminders, no card processing and no warning about a double-booked time, so check the day before you confirm.

Visits that run the practice

Mark a visit Completed and paid by card, cash or gift card and the sale is logged once. Pay with a package and one session is used. Pay with insurance and a draft claim is created.

Who it suits

A therapist or front desk that takes the bookings and the payments, and wants their own records on their own computer for a one-time price.

Insurance billing software for massage therapists

Track every claim and print the superbill. You send it yourself.

Doctor-referred visits are where billing gets lost. This keeps every claim in view without a second program, and it says plainly what it does not do: it does not submit claims electronically.

From visit to draft claim

Complete a visit paid by insurance and a draft claim is created with the payer, date of service and CPT code from the service.

Status from Draft to Paid

Claim number, diagnosis code and billed, allowed and paid amounts, with Draft, Submitted, Paid, Partially Paid, Denied and Appealed. A paid claim logs the income once.

Aged by days open

Each unpaid claim shows how many days it has been open, and reports group what is outstanding into 0–30, 31–60 and over-60-day buckets.

A superbill you can print

Every claim prints as a superbill on your letterhead with your NPI or tax ID, ready to hand to a client or send to the insurer.

Accounting and bookkeeping for massage therapists

Bookkeeping for the practice, not a full accounting package.

If you searched for accounting software for massage therapists, here is what you get and what you do not, before you buy.

What it keeps

Every sale and expense by category: sessions, package sales, insurance payments, retail and tips in, supplies, laundry and rent out. The dashboard shows revenue and net cash flow for the month.

What it does not do

No double-entry ledger, no tax filing, no payroll and no bank connection. It is the record of what came in and went out, not your accountant.

Reports for any date range

Income and expenses, sessions and value by service, claims and aging, average pain relief, and performance and commission by therapist.

Hand it to your accountant

Export All Tables writes every module into one CSV file that opens in Excel, Google Sheets or Numbers.

Why therapists switch

You are not really choosing between two massage software packages.

Most software for massage therapists is rented by the month, and the client list and the notes live on somebody else’s server. A paper chart and a spreadsheet are cheap but count no packs and chase no claims.

This massage therapist software is a file you own, with the schedule, the notes, the packs and the claims built in.

The subscription column is a general description of software sold by the month, not a claim about any single company — features and pricing differ, so check each site.

OwnDesk Massage is single-computer software: it does not sync between devices, take online bookings or payments, send messages or submit claims. It is not a certified EHR.

Custom build

Need it to work exactly the way your practice does?

I can adapt OwnDesk Massage to the way your practice works: your own fields, your intake forms, your reports, or two OwnDesk products combined into one. It’s still a one-time payment, it still runs offline, and it’s yours. I built the software, and I build your version myself.

  • An intake form with your own health questions and modalities
  • Gift certificates with a balance that counts down
  • OwnDesk Massage and OwnDesk Yoga combined, for a wellness studio that runs both

Custom builds start at $490, paid in two halves: 50% to start, 50% after you’ve tested it.

Questions

Before you buy.

What is software for massage therapists?
It is the tool a massage therapist runs the schedule, the client records, the session notes and the money in. For massage that also means SOAP notes with a pain score, session packs and memberships that count down, and insurance claims for doctor-referred visits. This one puts all of it in one offline file, so a visit you book, the note you write about it, the pack it uses up and the income it logs are all connected.
Is this massage therapist software for a solo therapist or a small studio?
Both. It is built for an independent massage therapist, a small studio or a bodywork practice with a few therapists: clients with intake and health history, therapists with license and liability-insurance dates, services with a price and a CPT code, appointments by therapist and room, SOAP notes, packages, claims, products and reports in one file. There are no user accounts, so it is a one-desk tool.
Is it SOAP note software for massage therapists?
Yes. Each note has Subjective, Objective, Assessment and Plan, with pain before and after on a 0–10 scale, the pressure used, areas treated, techniques and home care advice. Every note is linked to the appointment it came from, so a completed session with no note appears in a Charting Backlog on the dashboard until you write one, and one click opens a note with the client, therapist and date already filled in. Notes print on your letterhead with a signature line.
Can I see how a client's pain changes over time?
Yes. Open a client's treatment history to see their health alerts first (allergies, contraindications and areas to avoid), then the pain-before and pain-after scores from every SOAP note drawn as a line, plus their packages and their next visit. Reports also show average pain relief for any date range.
Is it insurance billing software for massage therapists? Does it submit claims?
It tracks claims and prints them, but it does not submit them. Complete a doctor-referred visit paid by insurance and a draft claim is created with the payer, date of service and CPT code. You add the diagnosis code and the billed, allowed and paid amounts, move it from Draft to Submitted, Paid, Partially Paid, Denied or Appealed, and print a superbill. There is no electronic claim submission and no clearinghouse, so you send the claim to the insurer yourself. Reports show what is outstanding in 0–30, 31–60 and over-60-day buckets.
Is it scheduling software for a massage therapist? Can clients book online?
It is scheduling software for the desk, not for clients. You or your front desk book each visit by client, therapist, service, room, date and time, and see the month on a calendar colored by status. Clients cannot book themselves: there is no booking page and no app, and it does not send text or email reminders. If you need clients to book and pay from their phones, you need a subscription service. Today's day sheet prints with each client's pressure preference and alerts.
What is the best scheduling software for massage therapists?
It depends on what you need, and no list can say for you. If clients must book themselves online or get text reminders, you need a subscription service. If you book your own visits and want the schedule, the notes, the packages and the claims in one file you own for a one-time price, that is what this is. It does not warn you about a double-booked time, so check the day before you confirm.
How do session packages and memberships work?
Sell a session pack, a membership or a gift certificate with the sessions included, an expiry date and the price paid. Book a visit as “paid with Package”, mark it Completed and one session is deducted, once. The sessions left are never typed twice. The dashboard lists packs with two or fewer sessions left or expiring within 30 days, and selling a package logs the income on the day it was sold.
Is it accounting software for massage therapists? Is it bookkeeping software?
It does the bookkeeping a small practice needs, but it is not an accounting package. Sales and Expenses logs every sale and expense by category (sessions, package sales, insurance payments, retail, tips, supplies, laundry, rent and more), and the dashboard shows revenue and net cash flow for the month. Completing a paid visit logs the sale once. Export All Tables writes everything to one CSV file for your accountant. There is no double-entry ledger, tax filing, payroll or bank connection.
Is it the best accounting software for massage therapists?
Not if you need a full accounting package, and we would rather say so. It is a practice manager that keeps your income and expenses next to the sessions that earned them. If you already use an accounting service, export the CSV and hand it over. If you do not need more than income, expenses and monthly cash flow, it is enough, and there is no subscription.
Is it HIPAA compliant, or a certified electronic health record?
No. It is not a certified EHR and it does not make your practice compliant with any privacy law. Records stay on your own computer, in your browser, and nothing is uploaded anywhere, but how you protect them is up to you: a locked computer, a protected browser profile and an encrypted drive for your backup file, the way you would protect paper charts. There is also no signature capture: print the note or intake form and sign on paper, or tick “Signed off” in the app.
Can several people use it at the same time? Is it in Spanish?
No to both. There is no cloud sync and no shared database, so it is one computer at a time; a second computer can work from a copy by restoring a backup file, but the two copies do not merge. The app and its printouts are in US English only.
Where are my records stored, and is there a subscription?
Records live inside your browser, on your own computer, and nothing is sent anywhere. Settings has a backup export, and a weekly backup is a sensible habit; keep a copy somewhere that is not that computer. There is no subscription: one payment for the file, no account, no server, no monthly fee.
Can you customize it for my massage business?
Yes. I can adapt OwnDesk Massage to the way your practice works: your own fields, your intake forms, your reports, or two OwnDesk products combined into one. It stays a one-time payment, it still runs offline, and it is yours, built by the same person who made the software. Tell me about your business and I will tell you what it would take.
