How payment works at Denver Sports Massage

We don’t bill insurance companies directly. You pay for your session up front, and if your plan includes benefits for massage therapy or acupuncture, you can submit a superbill from us for possible reimbursement.

Paying directly keeps treatment decisions between you and your therapist rather than a claims department, and it keeps our pricing straightforward. Your session is built around your assessment, not a billing code.

What a superbill is and how to use it

A superbill is an itemized receipt listing what you paid, the services you received, and the provider details insurance companies ask for. Ask at checkout or by email and we’ll prepare one for your massage or acupuncture visit.

  1. Call the member-services number on your insurance card.
  2. Ask whether your plan reimburses out-of-network massage therapy or acupuncture, and whether you need a doctor’s referral or prescription first.
  3. Submit the superbill according to your insurer’s instructions, usually through an online portal or by mail.

Reimbursement depends entirely on your plan. Some plans reimburse part of the cost, some apply it toward a deductible, and some don’t include massage benefits at all. We can’t guarantee reimbursement, but we will make sure your paperwork is complete and accurate.

Using HSA and FSA funds
for massage

Massage therapy and acupuncture are often eligible expenses under Health Savings Accounts and Flexible Spending Accounts, especially when a session addresses a specific concern such as back pain or injury recovery. We accept HSA and FSA cards at the clinic.

Two tips before you tap your card:

Some plan administrators require a Letter of Medical Necessity from your doctor before massage qualifies. A quick call to your administrator settles it.

Keep your receipts, and watch the calendar. FSA funds usually expire at the end of the plan year, so late fall is a good time to book the sessions you’ve been putting off.

Massage therapy insurance questions, answered

Does Insurance Cover Massage Therapy?

Sometimes. Coverage varies widely from plan to plan. Some reimburse massage when it’s prescribed for a diagnosed condition, others exclude it entirely. The only reliable answer comes from your insurer, so call the number on your card and ask specifically about out-of-network massage therapy benefits.

Is Acupuncture Covered by Insurance in Denver?

Acupuncture benefits are increasingly common, and some Colorado plans include them. Terms differ on visit limits, referral requirements, and reimbursement rates, so check your plan documents or call your insurer. We provide superbills for acupuncture visits the same way we do for massage.

Can I Use My HSA or FSA for Sports Massage?

Often, yes. Eligibility depends on your account’s rules, and some administrators ask for a Letter of Medical Necessity. Once you’ve confirmed with your administrator, you can pay with your HSA or FSA card right at our front desk.

What Should I Ask My Insurance Company?

Four questions cover it: Does my plan include massage therapy or acupuncture benefits? Do I need a referral or prescription? What is my out-of-network reimbursement rate? How do I submit a claim? Five minutes on the phone now saves guesswork later.
