Somavue review
A massage-focused system combining pain maps, scheduling, intake, records, and payments.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Somavue is a paid software product for massage shops, bodywork studios, day spas, and wellness clinics. It brings together online booking, therapist scheduling, treatment-room and resource availability, digital intake and consent forms, client check-in, pain maps, client records, session notes, deposits, invoices, and card payments. Staff can access the product through web, iPhone, and Android apps. Its workflow coverage is particularly suited to practices managing couples sessions, four-hand work, guardian consent for minors, and therapist handoffs.
The strongest fit is its focus on massage-specific operations rather than general appointment booking alone. Pain maps, intake and consent, client history, and session notes give therapists a structured way to capture information around appointments. Scheduling includes both therapists and treatment rooms, while online deposits, in-person payments, invoices, and check-in connect front-desk and practitioner workflows. Stripe is the listed integration, making payment processing part of the platform's operating model.
Somavue uses usage-based pricing with no monthly subscription. The published plan highlights booking, check-in, payments, online deposits, and in-person payments, with a 1.0% Somavue fee; Stripe card fees are separate. There is no free plan, and memberships are planned for future growth rather than included in the current core product. Practices seeking massage-oriented records, pain maps, mobile staff access, and room scheduling should consider Somavue. It is less suitable for businesses that need memberships as a current feature or prefer a free starting tier.
