Health Insurance and Massage

Q: Will my health insurance cover massage therapy?

A: In most cases the answer is yes. I accept most insurance plans and can verify that your plan will cover this benefit for you. Most plans cover 60%-80% of the cost with a few covering 100%. The number of annual visit can range from 10-60 one hour appointments per year.
Massage therapy can help in your recovery of many aches and pains including back pain, headaches, sprains/strains, diabetes, carpal tunnel, & tendonitis just to name a few.
After your coverage is determined and an appointment is completed, I bill your insurance for payment and then I send an invoice to you for any remaining balance not covered by your plan. The only item I need from you in a written “referral” from your doctor or chiropractor which includes what work needs to be addressed.
