The Important things!

When and What I have to offer & How Much

 Information on services, rates, massage offerings, trigger point therapy, insurance, etc.

My office hours are relatively flexible, generally

Tuesday - Thursday 1 PM to 8 PM by appointment.

 (sometimes outside of those times if needed)

ALL hours are by appointment only.

CALL FOR APPOINTMENT 
724-494-1468  Call or Text
 

Free 15-minute phone consultation to answer your questions about the treatment, your condition, and any other questions you might have before making an appointment.

I am also willing to answer questions and offer suggestions if you are not in the Pittsburgh or North Pittsburgh area!

Most people are understandably concerned about the investment when it comes to this type of care. For most people, this is an "out of pocket" expense. Your health insurance will not pay for my services, however, Auto and Workers Comp may. In some cases, the "co-pay" with other healthcare professionals (like PT) may be almost as much as your appointment with me.

My fees are based on expertise, training, and time spent with you.  However, I do what I can to hold down these costs by keeping my fees in line with a high-quality massage. As you may have noticed, what I do is rather different than standard massage, my training was completely different, as will be your results.

I am Board Certified in Myofascial Trigger Point Therapy and Certified in Medical Massage Therapy.

I am also licensed by the state of Pennsylvania as a Licensed Massage Therapist  PA# MSG001805

Sometimes you may only need a session or 2 for an acute problem, other times, the difference is how many sessions you will need depends a lot on changes you can make, the willingness to do the "homework"  and the elimination of perpetuating factors. Other people use my services as they would a massage on a regular basis. This could be 1x week, 2x month, 1x month, or as needed as maintenance.

What is the investment? 

My "at time of service" (cash, check, or Debit/Credit Card) rates:

$95 per hour,   $140 for 90 minutes, and $190 for 2 hours.

 Any Friday, Saturday, or Sunday appointments are charged at $180 CASH for 90 minutes IF I am available.

 

Packages are to be used within a year but can be shared with a family member or a friend.

 You can usually use your Health Savings Account if you have one. (find out if you need a prescription from your doctor for it to be covered)

Any services that are BILLED are charged at my regular rates!

This includes any payment not made at the time of service such as bounced check,

invalid credit card, billed to 3rd party, Auto Insurance/Workers Comp, etc.

$140 per hour or $35 per 15-minute unit 

 My specialty is Myofascial Trigger Point Therapy and  I am one of the few Board Certified Myofascial Trigger Point Therapists in the US.

  Unfortunately, in Pennsylvania and most other states, massage therapists can NOT BILL your HEALTH INSURANCE unless your plan offers to pay for massage. (not likely)

(There are a few Trigger Point Therapists in the Pittsburgh area that can because they are employed by a doctor  

contact me for info)
