DOES YOUR PRACTICE TAKE INSURANCE?
Massage Therapeutics understands how wellness and health care maintenance can sometimes add up, which is why sessions are fairly “reasonably priced” here.
We take the following Health Insurance:
Kaiser Permanente (Access PPO, Boeing HMO Network, Core, Elect PPO, Medicare Advantage HMO Group, Medicare Advantage HMO GRP Part D, Microsoft, Options, Options Federal, Providence, Caregivers, SoundChoice, Summit PPO, Swedish Caregivers and) Virtual Plus - Connect, AETNA -Value Plus Plan, Platinum Plus Plan, Elite Plan, Choice Plan, Select Plan, Eagle Plan/PPO-MA Only, Preferred Plan); TriWest (Community Care) (Veteran Insurance).
We take the following payments: HSA, FSH, Credit, Debit, Cash, Visa Gift Cards, Personal Checks, Cash App, Venmo, and Apple Pay.
BOOKINGS/CANCELLATIONS AND NO-SHOWS
A debit or credit card is required to book all appointments. It is asked that if appointments need to be canceled or rescheduled, it is done at least 24 hours in advance, which will give another client a chance to get into my limited schedule. Massage Therapy and Coaching sessions take time and resources to prepare. In consideration of this, a 50% cancellation fee is applied to each session if a client no-shows or cancels the same day, and the debit or credit card on file will be charged automatically. If canceled 24 hours before the appointment, you will not be charged.
No shows, unfortunately, put a damper on a small business’s financial stability. In consideration of this, no-shows are a one-time-only occurrence at Massage Therapeutics. If a client “No Call, No Show,” unfortunately, future appointment requests will not be accepted. We know things happen, and if something out of a client’s control comes up, please give us a call, and we may consider other options.
GIFT CARDS (E-GIFT)
E-Gift Cards are the new way of providing a gift card to a loved one or friend! There is a link on the home page of this site that will take you to the eGift Card option site, powered by secure SQUARE. Simple and easy form to fill out, and custom amount options available. Pick out a design of your choice! Your debit or credit card will be charged right away with your eGiftcard purchase. All eGiftcards are sent via email to the email that's entered at checkout. After purchase, all your eGiftcard recipient will need is to book their massage online and bring a photo ID with them to their appointment, along with a paper copy of their eGiftcard that has the reference number on it (a phone can also be scanned with a copy of the email and bar code).) We understand that things happen, and you may change your mind for one reason or another; that is why Massage Therapeutics policy is that you have 24 hours to get a refund on eGiftcards. After 24 hours, there are no refunds on eGiftcards. No Exceptions.
GIFT CERTIFICATES
Gift Certificates are available upon request. Please give us a call at 360-777-7139 or email us at massagethera.inquiry@gmail.com to inquire about your Gift Certificate options.

Unfortunately, we are unable to process any returns or reimburse any payment transactions on gift cards. Gift Certificates are NON-TRANSFERRABLE and cannot be redeemed as cash. Gift certificates may not be replaced if lost or stolen.
GIFT CERTIFICATES: Will be available in the future.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I RECEIVE A MASSAGE?
For those who desire massage therapy to be a preventative care, to manage daily stress, or for body maintenance care, one massage a month is common. Weekly sessions may be desirable if you are receiving massage therapy for injury relief or treatment of chronic pain that is interfering with your daily life. Massage Therapeutics recommends incorporating massage therapy sessions into your lifestyle and committing to at least twice a month for optimal well-being results.
PRIVACY IN YOUR SESSION
WHERE WILL MY MASSAGE SESSION TAKE PLACE?
Your massage session will take place at a professional office location in Lacey, WA. Located in a tranquil environment that caters to therapeutic practices.
MUST I BE COMPLETELY UNDRESSED?
During Massage sessions for general wellness, you will be undressed to your comfort level. Please keep in mind that most table massage techniques and modalities require full access to your muscle groups; this ensures the success of your care and proper treatment.
WILL THE PRACTITIONER BE PRESENT WHEN I DISROBE?
I will always leave the room before you undress, and after the massage session, before you redress. In consideration of the practitioner, please ensure undressing and redressing do not occur at any time before the therapist leaves the room.
WILL I BE COVERED DURING THE SESSION?
You will be properly draped at all times to keep you warm and comfortable.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON OUR ONE-ON-ONE BODY-SELF RENEWAL COACHING SESSIONS
Current massage therapy patient-clients who are receiving care under Massage Therapeutics, LLC for body-specific services, will unfortunately not be able to become coaching clients under PRO’Wellness Coaching business entity. This decision has been made to protect the professional boundaries that have already been established in your massage therapy care, protect you, the client-patient, as well as in consideration of the ethical boundaries of both professions. However, do have a network of other coaching professionals that we can refer clients to within the Marston Center!
Coaching sessions are separate from massage therapy care and never combined; Meaning coaching clients are not able to become massage therapy client-patients. However, we are able to refer coaching clients to Massage Therapist providers right at the Marston Center to promote the progress of their goal toward elevated self-care!
Coaching is NOT counseling/therapy or a cure for mental health conditions and should not be treated as such. Coaching one-on-one sessions provide the tools and resources useful for clients to move towards where they desire to be in feeling whole and like the best versions of themselves. Topics discussed in the above session’s offerings will be wellness aspirations, life balance, self-care, healthy wellness habits, goal setting, and more. Although our services are directed towards body trauma and body esteem, our intentions are not to open Pandora’s box and go back in time. It is all about “moving forward” with a positive plan in coaching sessions.
Coaching sessions are best for individuals who have already put in the work to get past their darkest barriers/challenges of body trauma and body esteem, and are ready to push forward in a positive direction, but could still use that extra professional support to achieve wellness and self-care goals.
Sessions help clients focus on piecing together their individual self-care and wellness puzzle together. Coaching is all about helping clients align their self-care regimens with their daily lives while achieving a healthy, beneficial flow in wellness. Client coaching sessions will be focused on practices regarding their personal wellness development and self-care, pushing towards being and feeling like the best version of themselves.
