Clear answers before you book.

New clinical clients begin with an Initial Assessment. It is $250 and lasts approximately 90 minutes. The appointment combines assessment with hands-on treatment and establishes the direction for follow-up care.

The Initial Assessment includes a postural and movement assessment, discussion of what you are experiencing, and hands-on treatment. Don uses what he observes—and how you respond—to decide which treatment approaches may be appropriate.

Established clients can book directly through the Matrix ClinicSense schedule. Follow-up care is offered as a Focused or Comprehensive Session according to the scope of work.

This is a $79, approximately 30-minute assessment with no hands-on treatment. The same assessment is already included within the $250 Initial Assessment.

A Focused Session is $110 and approximately 40 minutes for a focused region, pattern, or objective after the treatment direction is established. A Comprehensive Session is $185 and approximately 70 minutes for broader or more complex work involving multiple regions or patterns.

Focused and Comprehensive describe the scope of treatment. Approximate times are used for scheduling; they are not a menu of time-based massage services.

Responses vary with the person and the work performed. Don will discuss relevant observations and next steps with you, and your response helps guide future care. Matrix does not promise a specific outcome.

Techniques are selected according to the assessment, the treatment objective, and how you respond. Matrix does not ask clients to choose from a modality menu.

No. ScarWork is a treatment approach that may be incorporated into a normal Matrix session when it is relevant. New clients begin with an Initial Assessment; established clients book normal follow-up care.

No. Kinesio Taping is a treatment tool that may be incorporated when assessment indicates it could be useful. It does not have a separate public booking path or price.

No. Matrix Bodywork works within massage-therapy scope and does not diagnose medical conditions.

Yes, massage and bodywork may complement care from physical therapists, chiropractors, surgeons, physicians, and other providers. Matrix does not replace medical or rehabilitative evaluation and treatment.

If symptoms are new, severe, rapidly changing, unexplained, or otherwise concerning, medical evaluation may be appropriate before bodywork. Don may also recommend medical evaluation when something appears outside massage-therapy scope.

When useful and with the client’s authorization, Matrix can share relevant non-diagnostic observations with a referring or treating provider.
