Motor Vehicle Accident Injuries (MVA)

If you have been in an automobile accident, your doctor may prescribe massage as part of your treatment plan. Massage can address the stress that goes with a traumatic event like a car accident, and it can help address many of the sprains, strains, and other injuries common in a MVA.

Know Your Rights

If you are injured in a Motor Vehicle Accident you should immediately visit your Primary Health Care Physician in order to have your situation assessed and documented.

This serves as a baseline for your care and as evidence of your situation if you proceed to court. Based on your assessment, you will be assigned permission to access either 10 or 21 treatments for your condition.

Often, a Doctor will recommend Physiotherapy treatments first, possibly followed by Chiropractic treatments. If you request massage, they will request that you see a specialist first.

Since your Primary Health Care Practitioner can be an MD, Physiotherapist, or Chiropractor, OFTEN THEY ARE NOT AWARE OF THE BENEFITS OF THERAPEUTIC MASSAGE TREATMENTS, and would refer you to treatments that they are familiar with.

THIS IS WHEN A CLIENT SEEKING MASSAGE THERAPY NEEDS TO KNOW THEIR RIGHTS, and to be able to provide this information to their Primary Health Care Physician.INSURANCE COMPANIES DO NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO DETERMINE WHAT TYPE OF TREATMENTS YOU ACCESS-ONLY YOUR PRIMARY HEALTH CARE PRACTIONER DOES-BASED ON YOUR REQUESTS
