How to Achieve Maximum Success with Health
Were you injured at work? You can claim your prescribed licensed massage therapy benefit in-home under your workers compensation claim! You can then search for a massage therapist who will work with workers compensation insurance without asking for out-of-pocket co-pays. Certainly, they also have to be affiliated with the U.S.Department of Labor Office of Workers Compensation Programs (OWCP), with vast experience working with both local governments and private insurance companies and care management networks.
But as you might surmise, a workers’ comp massage therapist who is just right for your needs, may not always be easy to find. That’s why you should probably partner with an online network that matches injured workers with suitable massage therapists under their under workers’ compensation claim. With a good provider, you will not only be given a good match of a therapist, but all the administrative it entails – pre-qualifications, authorizations, etc.- will also be well taken care of.
Aside from honoring workers compensation insurance for massage, your provider needs to offer licensed injury massage therapy when and where (at home for most patients) it will be most comfortable for you.
Worker Injury Massage Treatments
In-home massage therapy are generally good for about 60 each session. Therapists can work a whole range of mild to severe injuries of the neck, back, shoulder or wrist; headaches; and other soft tissue strains and spasms. Examples of common treatments include standard or deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, and basic stretching.
Why Massage Therapy?
Massage therapy is a widely accepted as an effective method of achieving total rehabilitation of individuals and restoring their pre-accident health. Sometimes, it is also used for natural pain, meaning drug-free, management. Massage is not only good for the directly affected site or area of the body, but it can help nurse the body back to optimal health and well being through holistic healing. This makes massage a great complement to chiropractic therapy, physical therapy and the rest. In several cases, insurance benefits will let you keep receiving these therapies together with massage as necessary.
If you partner with a good online massage therapist provider, you can ensure that you will have a therapist who is just right for you, instead of just anybody who happens to be free. There are so many therapists these days, so if someone doesn’t feel like a fit at all, tell your provider and they will happily keep looking for the one who’s just perfect for you. As an alternative, you may also have your own therapist – as long as he or she is properly qualified and insured – sign up with your provider so they can work under the network’s authority.
