DOES NDIS COVER MASSAGE THERAPY?
This answer depends on both how your NDIS fund is managed and you or your client’s individual needs.
If you’re a self-managed and plan-managed participant, you may be able to use your NDIS funding to cover the costs of massage therapy, however, this depends on your individual needs and whether this support is related to your disability and will help you pursue your goals and aspirations.
Participants requiring support to improve mobility and muscle function or relief from chronic pain or stiffness in joints may be able to access funding for massage therapy under their plan
How do I access massage services through NDIS funding:
Accessing massage services via your NDIS fund depends on how your fund is managed. There are three key ways to manage your funding as an NDIS participant:
1. SELF MANAGED
You’ll be given access to your NDIS funding and will be able to manage this yourself based on the goals you’re working towards.
2. PLAN MANAGED
You’ll be given a Plan Manager who will help match you with providers, keep track of your funds and take care of the financial reporting for you.
3. NDIA MANAGED
This means the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) will pay providers and manage your funding on your behalf of the claim.
