Dear Patients,

I want to make you aware of an important proposal that could significantly reduce massage therapy coverage for people with Oregon Health Plan (OHP/Medicaid) insurance.

The Oregon Health Authority (OHA) is currently considering changes that would dramatically limit massage therapy benefits beginning in 2026.

The proposal currently under discussion would:

Limit covered massage therapy sessions to less than 15 minutes, and
Only cover massage therapy when it is provided in conjunction with physical therapy or chiropractic treatment, not by a Licensed Massage Therapist.

Many of our patients know firsthand how valuable massage therapy can be for reducing pain, improving function, supporting recovery, and improving quality of life. If these proposed changes move forward, access to this care could become much more limited for OHP members.

If you have benefited from massage therapy—or know someone who has—I encourage you to make your voice heard during the public comment process. Personal stories about how massage therapy has improved your health can make a meaningful impact.

The comment period closes at 8:00 a.m. on Friday, 8/7/2026. Please use the Commission’s public comments form.

Please also consider sharing this information with friends, family members, and massage therapists who may not be aware these changes are being discussed. The more people who participate in the public comment process, the better decision-makers can understand the real-world impact these proposed cuts would have.

Thank you for taking a few minutes to help protect access to massage therapy for Oregonians who rely on it.

Sincerely,

Dr. Jennifer Moody, DAOM, LAc

We’re so excited to welcome Mitchy to Winding Willow!

Mitchy practices Deep Tissue and Swedish massage, with inspiration from Craniosacral and Structural Integration therapies. His approach is grounded in both skill and lived experience — having spent much of his life as a landscaper and touring musician, he understands the real impact physical work and less-than-ideal conditions can have on the body.

As a parent of two young children, Mitchy also deeply values the importance of slowing down, creating quiet space, and making time for self-care.

He strives to create a safe, supportive environment where clients can connect with the wisdom of their bodies. Mitchy welcomes open communication, honoring your needs and boundaries to support a sense of ease, release, and restoration. 🌿

We’re so happy to have him as part of the Winding Willow Acupuncture & Wellness team — come book with Mitchy and experience his thoughtful, grounded care for yourself!
