Frequently Asked Questions

Our specialty is helping clients with pain and dysfunction due to stress related disorders like general anxiety disorder (GAD) and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Those conditions may present as non-specific low back pain, shoulder and neck pain, TMJ, tension headaches,  upper arm pain, thoracic outlet syndrome, carpal tunnel syndrome and fibromyalgia.

Over the years we have helped clients with medical conditions including: scoliosis, ALS, cancer, chronic pain syndrome, hyper-mobil EDS, diabetes, post-surgical rehab, and a number of orthopedic conditions including artificial joint replacement, vertebral disc replacement, and fused vertebra. 

No. Danzan Therapeutics is not chiropractic. We do not perform spinal manipulations. That is a another form of complimentary treatment. We offer one-on-one sessions that focus on retracing the path of pain and correcting at its original source. Sessions typically last about an hour. 

Your insurance plan may cover treatment. Although many insurance plans do not cover therapeutic massage or bodywork therapy, you can ask your doctor for a written prescription or recommendation showing it to be a valuable alternative that improves your health condition. By having a document stating the need for orthopedic bodywork therapy, the chances of covering a portion of the cost with insurance will increase. But check that the insurer has policies available for that type of treatment or coverage option.

Rates for many of our service options are on par with most co-pays for insurance covered specialist or orthopedic visits. When you are in pain what matters most is how quickly you can get an appointment and how effective the treatment will be. Make sure to check the cost-saving availability on multiple session series.

Your first session will provide an opportunity for you, as well as your therapist, to ask questions and talk about goals. Also, there may be some informal and painless assessment techniques applied to gage a better understanding of the issue(s). Lastly, your therapist will provide the therapeutic session most relevant to achieving relief from pain or improvement in mobility. You will find it both comfortable and relaxing.

Late afternoon appointments are available on certain weekdays. Saturday appointments are available most weekends. 

Depending on what type of massage, bodywork or bodymind therapy you choose... you will wear what you are comfortable in. Most massage has a bare skin benefit but most other bodywork treatments can be provided over your clothes.

Our office is a secured, professional holistic medical setting that follows all state regulations for safety and privacy. Most hours will include other clients being treated simultaneously in other treatment rooms.  For many, reading our verified reviews is helpful in feeling comfortable.
