If you were in a recent car accident, your medical costs are typically covered by your auto insurance. You are able to get massage treatments at no cost to you and your rates can not be increased. Your doctor may prescribe massage as part of your treatment plan. Massage can address the stress that goes with a traumatic event like a car accident, and it can help address many of the sprains, strains, and other injuries common in a motor vehicle accident (or MVA, an acronym you may encounter on insurance and other forms).
