Medical Massage
Description
Medical massage is outcome-based massage, primarily the application of specific targeted techniques to the problem the patient presents with a diagnosis or assessment, and is administered after a thorough evaluation by the medical massage therapist, with specific outcomes being the basis for treatment. Medical massage is distinguished from relaxation or spa massage by its focus on addressing specific conditions and treatment outcomes. This treatment is recommended for individuals looking to obtain reimbursement from their insurance company for treatments which recommend medical massage for the management or improvement of a diagnosis given by physician.
