During a session you notice a rash on the client’s back. What would be the correct form of action?
  1. Use light Swedish massage over the area
  2. End the massage after letting the client know that they have a contagious skin infection
  3. Ask the client if they are aware of the rash and avoid the area
  4. Apply hot packs to the area
Explanation
Answer: C Ask the client if they are aware that they have a rash and avoid the area or cover it with gauze. Touching the area may spread the rash, further infecting or irritating the area. It is also possible that the rash could be contagious. Suggesting that the client seek a medical opinion for the condition is the best course of action regarding any unknown condition.
