Auto accident recovery
Massage therapy through your PIP claim
Individualized therapeutic massage for pain, stiffness and reduced mobility after a motor vehicle accident.
What to expect
Start with your claim
Open a PIP claim with your auto insurer and note your claim number, insurance details and your adjuster's contact information.
Talk with your provider
Discuss massage therapy with your treating healthcare provider; some insurers require a referral or authorization.

Good to know
Verification of benefits isn't a guarantee of payment: your insurance carrier makes the final decision on coverage and payment, based on your policy and its claim requirements. Because this is treatment related to an accident, each visit is documented in your clinical record (symptoms, evaluation findings, outcome measures and a treatment plan), as Washington requires.
