What BuboSoma is
BuboSoma is web-based scheduling and client-management software for massage therapists, bodyworkers, and therapeutic clinics. Clients can book through a mobile-friendly website or hosted booking page, while practitioners manage online schedules and calendars. The service keeps client records, history, and notes, and subscribers can request practice-data exports. Stripe integration supports accepting client payments, and treatment-room scheduling is included. Core provides email reminders and follow-ups; text reminders are listed as forthcoming. Plans scale by practitioner capacity and offer additional locations for monthly charges. BuboSoma uses encryption in transit and at rest and describes itself as HIPAA-aware, but advises against entering client health information until BAA signing becomes available, targeted for Q4 2026. It is paid, with pricing from $69/mo annually, no free plan, and a 14-day trial without a card.
