Insurance Can Cover Massage in Puyallup

November 25, 2019 – – Unlocking The Body Massage Therapy, a clinic that offers massage in Puyallup, Washington, has announced that they now accept car accidents, work injuries, and most medical insurances for massage and flotation therapy. They offer medical massage, which is result oriented and specifically focused on resolving conditions that have been diagnosed and prescribed by a chiropractor, physician, or naturopath. The massage therapist may apply various kinds of modalities or procedures during the treatment. The focus will be on the areas of the body related to the prescription and diagnosis.

Jennifer Bull, LMT and owner of Unlocking The Body Massage Therapy, says, “Many people are unaware that massage therapy is a covered benefit under most health insurance plans, or if you are in a car accident or hurt on the job. We can help you utilize these benefits and pay less out of pocket for your massage therapy sessions. Stop trying pills and temporary fixes to solve your pain issues. Call or text us and we will help you figure out how.”

She adds, “Medical massage is generally billed in 15-minute increments using current procedural terminology and adhering to the usual and customary reimbursement fee schedule.”

They accept several insurance carriers. These include Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Regence, Teamsters, Amazon, Regence, First Choice Health Network, VA – Community Care, work related injuries, car accidents with personal injury protection, United Healthcare, and Kaiser Options or Access. Billing massage therapy will need a diagnosis code from a doctor, chiropractor, naturopath, nurse practitioner, or physicians assistant. Currently, Tricare, Medicare, Apple Health, and DSHS do not cover massage therapy. However, Unlocking The Body Massage Therapy offers a $60 first visit discounted session, and then $70 thereafter with no contracts.

The medical day spa in Puyallup can provide various benefits through its medical massage therapy. These include the release of tight and sore muscles that can cause ischemia; relief for nerve compression or entrapment; deactivation of myofascial trigger points; reduction of pain and inflammation; restoration of strength and suppleness to the muscles; release of tension or muscles in spasm, thus releasing toxins such as lactic acid; relief for stress and improvement of blood circulation; aid in digestion; calming of the nervous system; and improvement of posture and coordination.

It should be noted that medical massage is cost effective because it helps the patient in achieving faster recovery from acute headaches, skeletal muscular strains, neck and back pain, sprains, and more. It can also help people avoid future chronic pain conditions by dealing with the cause of the problem and getting rid of it. Studies have shown that more than 80 percent of pain comes from soft tissue injuries and more than 74 percent can be directly attributed to trigger points.

Aside from massage therapy, Unlocking The Body Massage Therapy can also provide other services like sensory deprivation or flotation therapy. This consists of a 60 or 90 minute float in their custom 6’ by 9’ glass enclosed float pool with 9’ ceilings. The float pool has approximately 250 gallons of solution and is about 12” deep. It uses approximately 1200 pounds of epsom salts to make a person float weightlessly.

Flotation therapy is used to relieve stress, fight addiction, recover from injuries, reduce inflammation, eliminate chronic pain, relieve anxiety, and more. Research has shown that floating can increase a person’s endorphin and dopamine levels, enhancing a person’s mood, while epsom salt or magnesium sulfate has been found to be good for inflammation, muscle tension, and nervous system regulation.

Unlocking The Body Massage Therapy also offers active isolated stretching or AIS. They provide therapy sessions that combine the best of AIS with focused manual work. Each session is about half sports type massage and half AIS. AIS helps people optimize the effectiveness of stretching without causing the discomfort that often makes people avoid it.
