Lise take Providence and Regence BCBS.
Carisa takes Providence, Aetna, Regence BCBS and some MODA plans.
Emily takes Regence BCBS and some MODA plans.

We treat and bill for injuries from Motor Vehicle Collisions. In Oregon, PIP covers massage therapy if you have a doctor's referral.

Additional 30 minutes can be added for $70, plus any applicable co-pay.

Tips for easy billing, with no surprises:
1) Do not receive multiple treatments on the same day. PTs, chiropractors, and OTs often bill the same codes as LMTs. Insurance will pay one and reject the other claims, leaving you on the hook to pay out of pocket.
2)Fill out all insurance information correctly on your intake forms.

Hello! I’m Emily, the owner and founder of Cocoon Massage. I’ve been practicing massage since 1996, and at this point I’m starting to get pretty good at it. I specialize in Clinical Care treatments that help people regain comfort and quality of life. Our bodies use pain as a way to protect themselves: a great strategy if you are at risk of damaging tissue, like touching a hot stove, or if you just tore a ligament. The pain gets your attention and shuts down the activity that caused it. However, bodies often get stuck in a reflexive loop that create pain during normal activities. This can continue long after the injury has healed. In addition, our nervous systems often start “reading” repetitive movements or postures as dangerous, which leads to pain. This can lead to days, months or years of suffering. And that suffering is big, real, and can affect everything in your life. My goal is to help you reset these pain loops quickly, with long term relief. And best of all, my approach emphasizes comfort. Making a tender area hurt more only ratchets up the nervous system’s desire to guard. So we lean into providing maximum ease and comfort during treatment, and your nervous system can stop protecting, and start healing.
