Body Well LLC BBB Business Review

Workers’ Compensation Massage Services: Chicago

Getting the workers’ comp massage therapy you need shouldn’t add stress to your recovery. Body Well Mobile Massage provides massage therapy covered by your workers’ comp claim — delivered with care at your home or at a partner location in Chicago. We handle all the insurance paperwork and authorization requirements, so you can focus on healing from your workplace injury.

The Challenge of Workers' Comp Recovery

Recovering from a workplace injury while navigating workers’ compensation requirements can feel overwhelming. You’re dealing with pain, paperwork, and the stress of coordinating multiple healthcare appointments.
⚠️  Finding massage therapists who accept workers’ comp insurance

⚠️ Waiting weeks for authorization approvals

⚠️ Managing complex billing and claims processes

⚠️ Traveling to appointments when you’re already in pain

This administrative burden often delays the therapeutic care that could speed your recovery and reduce your discomfort.

How Body Well Simplifies Your Recovery

Body Well Mobile Massage (“Body Well”) specializes in workers’ compensation massage therapy, removing the administrative complexity from your healing process. Our comprehensive screening ensures you receive care from professionally vetted, licensed and insured therapists.

We coordinate directly with your workers’ comp insurance, handle all authorizations, and bring professional massage therapy to your location in Chicago. Since 2005, we’ve been the trusted choice for injured workers who need reliable, insurance-covered massage therapy.

Workers' Compensation Coverage

Your workers’ compensation claim typically covers therapeutic massage when prescribed by your doctor. We accept federal (DOL OWCP), state, local, and private workers’ compensation insurance throughout Chicago.
?

Pre-Authorization Required

Unlike other insurance types, workers’ comp requires authorization before treatment begins. We handle this entire process for you, working directly with your insurance provider to secure approval.
?

Federal Employee Benefits

Federal employees receive excellent coverage through the Department of Labor’s Office of Workers Compensation Programs (OWCP). We’re registered providers for OWCP massage therapy services.

Our Simple Service Process

Initial Consultation

We review your workers’ comp claim details, prescription requirements, and injury specifics to determine your coverage options and treatment eligibility. This includes verifying your claim status and understanding any limitations or special requirements.

Authorization Handling

Our team coordinates with your insurance carrier, claims manager, doctor’s office, and other third parties to obtain the necessary prescription and pre-authorization for your massage therapy sessions. Authorizations are typically issued for a specific number of visits.

Therapist Matching

We select a licensed and insured Body Well LMT based on your specific injury type, geographic location, scheduling preferences, and therapeutic needs. Our matching process ensures compatibility between you and your assigned therapist.

Treatment Begins

You meet your therapist at your home or another professional location for comprehensive 60-minute massage therapy sessions focused on your workplace injury recovery. Sessions are scheduled at times convenient for your healing process.

Billing and Documentation

Your therapist provides necessary documentation for our in-house claims manager to submit bills to the responsible payor. We ensure your therapist is compensated fully and promptly. You never receive bills or pay out of pocket.

Renewal of Authorization

Many injured individuals require therapy beyond initially authorized sessions. Since Body Well cannot provide authorization independently, we assist you in obtaining new authorizations for additional sessions so your needed therapy can continue uninterrupted.
