Answer to Question 1

An autopsy is performed to determine the cause of death. Autopsy results are used in cases of suspicious death or the presence of communicable disease. The cause of death also has implications regarding payment from insurance policies and worker's compensation.

Massage therapy is now recognized as a highly beneficial modality and is prescribed by a number of physicians. In addition, most states now have licensing requirements for massage practitioners.
