Hillsboro Beach FAQs for Massage Therapy
How often?
Individual. Packages are not a psychiatric protocol.
Trauma?
Only with consent and not as a substitute for trauma therapy.
Contraindications?
Clots, fever, some skin/cardiac conditions — we screen.
Does massage treat depression?
No. It may ease tension. Depression still needs medical/psychological care.
Meds that bruise?
Tell us.
Insurance?
Often not covered like a medical visit. Ask before booking.
Can I do all appointments via telehealth?
After an initial evaluation (which we recommend in-person for the most thorough assessment), most follow-up appointments can be conducted via our secure telehealth platform.
How do you ensure privacy?
All appointments and records are HIPAA-compliant. Telehealth sessions use encrypted video, and we never share patient information without explicit consent.
Indications and differentials
Not indicated for DVT, open wounds, unexplained fever.
Muscle tension with anxiety or insomnia under a medical plan.
Not a substitute for PT when a tear or radiculopathy is likely.
Patients who decline medications and still want somatic relief while pursuing therapy.
Parking, hours, and video visits
Commute noise on I-95 and the Turnpike changes whether an in-office Massage Therapy visit is realistic this week. Telehealth is used when the clinical exam does not require the office.
Hillsboro Beach (Broward County) has about 2,000 residents. The nearest Peace & Heart Wellness exam room is the Hollywood office, about 36 minutes from Hillsboro Inlet Lighthouse and Millionaire Mile.

Schedule with Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC
Call (888) 307-2199 to hold an appointment for Massage Therapy. Mention Hillsboro Beach so staff can plan in-office versus Florida telehealth for the first visit.
If you already have records from another psychiatrist, NP, or therapist, send them before Massage Therapy so the interview can start from data instead of from a blank page.

Florida telehealth psychiatry is available to established and new patients located in Florida at the time of the visit, subject to licensure and clinical appropriateness. An in-person evaluation at the Hollywood office may be recommended when a physical exam, vital signs, or a more complete diagnostic interview is needed.
