? Restless sleep or Fatigue
? Difficulty focusing
Listening Hands Massage therapy helps prevent long-term damage, reduces pain, improves mobility, and speeds recovery after a car accident.
FAQs – What You Need to Know
▶️ How soon should I get a massage after a car accident?
According to experts, as soon as possible: Even without pain, soft tissue injuries can develop and become fixed over time. Early auto injury massage catches tissue before it locks in the injury, speeds healing, and prevents complications.
▶️ Does my car insurance cover car accident Massage Therapy?
YES! Oregon’s Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage starts at $15,000 for medically necessary massage therapy and other modalities after an accident. You can increase that coverage if you wish by purchasing a policy with higher limits. We handle the billing and paperwork.
▶️ Who will provide my Chiropractic Treatment?
Dr. Mike Kam, DC is the Chiropractor on our team. He will provide the medical referral so your Auto Insurance will cover massage and chiropractic, and he can treat you the same day at Listening Hands Massage, an hour before your massage. He also has an office in NW Portland and is Mobile. Find out more at Crash Care Clinics.
What Clients Say About Peter Black
I’ve been to many LMTs in the past 20 years due to chronic back issues, and Peter is in a league of his own. He can sustain high pressure throughout a 90 min massage, but also can do a gentler massage to suit each client’s needs. He’s a great communicator and creates a safe, relaxing environment. – Deborah H
If you’re looking for a kind, caring, professional, capable, knowledgeable, highly experienced massage therapist, look no further! I’ve been seeing Peter regularly for 1.5 years now, and my body is so grateful. Peter is always communicative and checks in with you pre-massage about how your body is doing as well as briefly during the massage about how the pressure is. I prefer strong, deep-tissue body work, and he can absolutely deliver. He remembers my preferences for certain areas, which reassures me that he is truly present, always listening, and genuinely cares. I refer everyone I can to Peter (friends, housesitters, my parents…); they’ve all left his studio raving and wanting to return. I can’t recommend Peter highly enough! – Anna H
