"Hi Molinia, how you doing today? I'm doing pretty good! Good, so do you have any aches or pains? I've been having a little trouble with my hip. With your hip, which hip? Right hip. Your right hip? Does it hurt when you walk, when you sit, when does it hurt? It hurts when I sit, but I notice particularly when I'm driving long distances. Okay and then does it hurt when you go to get out of the car? No, once I'm up walking around it feels okay again. It feels okay and on a scale of zero to 10, 10 being the highest, what would you say the pain level is of your hip? Probably about five. Five and that's primarily when you're sitting down, correct? It's like a spasm. Do you have any other aches or pains? No, but I am pretty tense these days and I think I really need to relax. Okay, we'll be able to help you with that. Now have you ever had a massage before? No I haven't. Okay, basically what we're going to do is just provide you with some nice gentle touch that's going to help with both pain in your hip and just give you an overall sense of well being and relax you. Does that sound good? That sounds great!"
