What is Medical Massage?

If you have been injured in a car accident or at work, or if you have another injury or condition for which massage is medically necessary, your doctor may give you a prescription for massage.

Medical Massage is therapeutic bodywork performed when medically necessary as an integral part of a medical treatment team. We work with medical doctors, naturopaths, physical therapists, chiropractors, and other health care practitioners to provide massage care when it is medically indicated for the patient.

Providing Medical Massage requires advanced training (beyond the state's basic licensing requirement) in clinical and orthopedic massage techniques, pathology, and advanced medical terminology.
