Car Accidents / Motor Vehicle Accidents (MVA’s)

If you have been in a motor vehicle accident (MVA) in Oregon either as a pedestrian, bicyclist, driver, or passenger, you are legally entitled to receive medical care. In the state of Oregon, Personal Injury Protection (PIP) insurance pays medical bills resulting from an MVA.

State law mandates at least $15,000 in PIP coverage for you and each of your vehicle passengers for a period of one year after a collision - no matter who was at fault. The law also allows you to seek care from the licensed health care practitioners of your choice.

Seeking treatment soon after your accident is important so that injuries do not fester in your body and become chronic problems.  As soon as you have seen your primary care physician–this can be a medical doctor (MD), chiropractor (DC), naturopathic physician (ND), or acupuncturist (LAc)–and they have written you a prescription for massage, you can schedule your first appointment for massage.

Be sure to ask the medical provider that prescribes massage for you to include on his/her prescription the following:

-their diagnosis code(s)

-number of massage therapy treatments recommended

-frequency of massage therapy treatments recommended

Please fill out all 3 client forms and bring them with you to our first session.

I will take care of all the insurance billing for you.
