Memorial Day
is around the corner!
In honor: I’m currently helping veterans learn more about options for massage therapy coverage through third-party community care programs.
Many veterans dealing with chronic pain, tension, stress, injury recovery, mobility issues, headaches, PTSD-related tension, or long-term physical strain may qualify for therapeutic massage services when medically appropriate.
Services may include:
• Deep Tissue Massage
• Cupping Therapy
• Relaxation & Recovery Sessions
• Focused treatment sessions for pain and mobility concerns
Treatments are performed in-office located inside the Grove City Business Center behind Pick ’Em Up Joe’s Coffee Shop in Grove City.
Typical care plans may include weekly treatments ranging from 30–60 minutes depending on individual needs and approval guidelines for 12 weeks to a year.
If you are a veteran — or know someone who may benefit — feel free to reach out for more information about how the process works and whether they may qualify. Also , there is a link attached for detailed information on how to get started.
