Common Car-Accident Symptoms We Address
Massage therapy may be helpful for accident-related muscular symptoms including:
Neck Pain and Whiplash-Related Tension
A collision can produce tension, guarding and restricted movement in the muscles of the neck and upper back. Treatment is adapted to your sensitivity and current stage of recovery.
Headaches
Tension in the neck, shoulders, jaw and muscles at the base of the skull may contribute to headaches following a motor vehicle accident.
Upper- and Lower-Back Pain
Muscular tension and protective guarding can affect the upper back, low back and surrounding areas, making sitting, sleeping and normal movement uncomfortable.
Shoulder Pain and Restricted Movement
Seat belts, bracing and the force of impact may contribute to shoulder and upper-body discomfort or limitations in movement.
Muscle Tension and Spasms
Muscles may tighten protectively following an injury. Careful massage may help decrease tension and support more comfortable movement.
Reduced Mobility
Neck, shoulder and back tension can make everyday activities more difficult. Treatment may help restore comfortable movement as part of your broader recovery plan.

Frequently Asked Car Accident Billing Questions
Do I need a prescription?
Yes. Precision Healing requires a current prescription for massage therapy that includes the diagnostic codes for the areas or conditions being treated.
Will I have to pay out of pocket?
Eligible treatment may be covered by available PIP benefits. Coverage depends on your policy, open claim, remaining benefits, medical necessity and the insurer’s determination.
We will bill eligible claims directly, but coverage cannot be guaranteed. You will be informed if we learn about a coverage problem or denial.
How many appointments will insurance cover?
The number of appointments depends on your prescription, treatment needs, available PIP benefits and the insurer’s coverage decisions. We do not promise a predetermined number of covered sessions.
What if I have already received other accident-related treatment?
PIP benefits may be shared among different medical providers. We recommend asking your adjuster about your remaining benefits. We may also contact the insurer to verify basic claim information before treatment.
How soon can I begin massage therapy?
You may schedule once you have received an appropriate medical evaluation, your claim is open and Precision Healing has received your prescription with diagnostic codes.
Treatment will be adjusted to your symptoms and tolerance. Massage does not need to be aggressive or painful to be useful.
Can passengers, pedestrians or cyclists receive PIP benefits?
PIP coverage may apply to people other than the insured driver, depending on how the accident occurred and the policies involved. Contact the appropriate automobile insurer or claims adjuster to confirm coverage.
