Autonomic down-regulation, not a cure claim
Insomnia gets a differential before we call massage the fix.
Massage Therapy for Hollywood patients
Therapeutic massage in Hollywood serves Hollywood as a service area.
Massage therapy on this site is an adjunct to a medical home, not a standalone psychiatric treatment.
DSM-5-TR framing for massage for anxiety
Not as detox.
Not a substitute for PT when a tear or radiculopathy is likely.
Not indicated as trauma EMDR.
Adjunct for patients already in psychiatric care.
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.
Parking at 7603 Davie Road Extension is on site. Hollywood patients who drive 0 minutes should plan for weekday 9:00–17:00 hours; Saturday is by appointment only.
Red flags (chest pain, neuro) stop the session.
If you are a psych patient, we confirm massage is adjunctive.
Monitoring and safety in Massage Therapy
Scent opt-out.
Hygiene and linens.
No alcohol 'to relax' advice that conflicts with psychotropics.
Stop-word.

How Massage Therapy is structured
Refer to Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC if the real need is a psychiatric evaluation.
Follow the same Hollywood hours model as the clinic.
Consent and stop-word.
Session in a private room.
Book Massage Therapy
If Massage Therapy is the right next step, schedule a 60–90 minute intake with Dr. Dorothy Chatelier, DNP, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC. Same-week telehealth follow-ups are used after the diagnostic visit when clinically appropriate.
After Massage Therapy is scheduled, complete intake forms once. Repeating the same history at every visit is what we are trying to avoid.
