SOAP Notes Logbook is a professional, local-first SOAP notes app for massage therapists who value clarity, reliability, and full ownership of their records — now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Write and review session notes calmly using a clean, structured editor built for real treatment workflows — not practice management software, not an EMR, and never tied to accounts or servers. Designed for real sessions Document each session using flexible SOAP fields, body diagrams, technique tags, and session context notes. All fields are optional, autosaved, and designed to stay out of your way while you work. Review session history by client, track progress over time, and update past notes without friction.
