MEDICAL MASSAGE & ACUPUNCTURE P.S.
ADMISSION FORM
I (patient/parent/guardian) agree to massage therapy, acupuncture treatment and procedures that are provided by an authorized
employee of Medical Massage & Acupuncture.
I agree to authorize all insurance benefits to pay directly to Medical Massage & Acupuncture.
I understand that Medical Massage & Acupuncture has the authority to release any information necessary to the insurance company
for the processing of medical claims.
As a courtesy, Medical Massage & Acupuncture will obtain a verification of applicable insurance benefits as they are quoted to them,
but some third party payers misquote benefits, coverage and liability. The facility & staff are not responsible for what a third party
payer and/or representative may tell them. Any contractual, written, verbal or other obligations or arrangements between me and
an attorney, insurance company, liable or third party payer are between me and said person.
I understand that my insurance policy is a contract between patient and insurance company. Medical Massage & Acupuncture is not
a party to that contract. It is my responsibility to be familiar with my insurance policy.
While Medical Massage & Acupuncture is happy to submit my claims to my insurance on my behalf, payment for medical services
provided is my responsibility. Copays are due at the time of service. I understand that I am financially responsible for all charges
that have been incurred for medical services rendered on my behalf. If my health insurance denies my medical claims, I understand I
am responsible for the cost of the massage therapy and/or acupuncture treatment. Any amounts left owing after insurance
reimbursement is made are also my responsibility.
Should my account be referred for collection, I am responsible for reasonable attorney fees and collection expenses. All delinquent
accounts bear interest at the legal rate. In the event of court action, venue and jurisdiction shall be Lewis County in the State of
Washington.

CANCELLATION & NO SHOW POLICY 24-HOUR CANCELLATION POLICY
Medical Massage & Acupuncture requires 24 hour notice in advance if you are unable to keep your appointment. Since we set aside
one hour for each appointment, it is only respectful of our time, as well as the time of others who wish to be seen, that you give
adequate notice. We certainly understand that extenuating circumstances can arise over which you have no control. However,
please be advised that we will charge $25.00 in the event that an appointment is missed/late cancellation. This is a charge for
which your insurance company is not responsible. Therefore, it will be billed directly to you.
I have read and understand the above policy and agree to abide by it while being treated at Medical Massage & Acupuncture.

MASSAGE CONSENT TO TREATMENT
Yes No | Have you ever received a professional massage? When: How often:
What results do you want from your session?
Is there anything else you would like your therapist to know?
I understand that massage therapists do not diagnose illness, disease, or other physical or mental disorders.
Massage therapists do not prescribe medical treatment or pharmaceuticals. It has been made clear to me that
massage is not a substitute for medical examination or diagnosis and that it is recommended that I see a
physician for any physical ailment that I might have. I have stated all my known medical conditions and take it
upon myself to keep Medical Massage & Acupuncture updated on my physical health.

MASSAGE INFORMATION AND POLICIES
If you have had a massage before, you know the benefits it can bring. If you are new to massage, you may
have some questions. Please feel free to ask us at any time. Below we have provided the answers to some
commonly asked questions and concerns.
You will be asked to disrobe to your level of comfort. If you have any reservations or concerns
regarding disrobing, please let your massage therapist know at the beginning of your appointment.
We love children; however, so that you may receive the full benefit of your massage treatment, we
discourage them being present. If this is not possible, please let us know in advance.
Massage is powerful and therapeutic. Drinking plenty of water before and after your massage is very
important. Muscles and joints need to be hydrated to prevent cramping and help eliminate the
accumulations of toxins. Water is the key to flushing these toxins from your body.
If your immune system is fighting a cold or the flu, or you are experiencing any health problems that
you feel may affect your massage, please inform you therapist before your appointment.
You may be instructed to ice specific areas after your treatment since your muscles have worked in a
new way. You may experience some stiffness or tenderness the next day. This is common, but icing will
reduce this a great deal. If tenderness lasts more than a day, let your therapist know at your next
appointment or feel free to give us a call. If your body is usually sensitive to more than a light massage,
please discuss this with your therapist. This will enable us to give you the best treatment possible for
your body.
To ensure that you receive the maximum benefit from your massage treatment we ask that you please
turn off all cellular phones during the session. If you need to leave your phone on due to possible
emergency circumstances that you need to be available for please let your therapist know.
