I am a Medical Massage Therapist in Tucson. I specialize in- and primarily see people who have been injured in auto accidents. I am one of just a few qualified injury-based manual therapists in Tucson. I take on your auto-injury case and do the billing for your auto injuries. This eliminates stress and allows you to focus on your healing and not have to worry about the financial burden while healing.
I have over 15 years of experience in this field. I have great success at helping people recover and get back to pre-accident condition using the best modalities in the manual therapy industry. I also am diligent and proficient at documenting your care the entire time- which helps claim reimbursement.

Services
Being in a car accident can wreak havoc in all areas of your life. On top of being injured, you may have multiple doctors appointments, meetings with your insurance company, taking your car to the auto body shop, dealing with the rental car agency, obtaining an attorney, and being unable to perform daily tasks such as; brushing your teeth, vacuuming or even sleeping.
In 2004 I graduated the 1100 hour massage therapy program at Renton Technical College in Renton, WA. I have over 15 years experience treating people with injuries.
I have treated injuries such as whiplash sustained in auto accidents, low back pain from an on-the-job injury, as well as chronic issues such as migraines, hip pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, frozen shoulder, thoracic outlet syndrome, sciatica, knee pain, tennis and golfer's elbow, foot pain and jaw pain.Whatever your activity and injury, I have likely treated someone with the same pain/limited mobility patterns as you.

Allowing someone to work on your body is a very personal thing and sometimes it helps to get to know them personally beforehand, so here's a bit about me. I grew up in central Tucson, but I have spent the last 17 years in the Seattle area and just recently moved back home to Tucson after my father passed away.
Repetitive Strain Injuries (RSI's) are injuries that are sustained from doing repetitious activities. For example doing any of the following for a significant amount of time; sitting at a computer, holding a baby on your hip, lifting overhead, leaning over a car engine, quilting and sewing, gardening, sitting in an unnatural position, playing an instrument, dancing, etc.
I have been treating people who have been injured on-the-job since 2004. I have seen carpal tunnel syndrome, low back strains, shoulder injuries, concussions and neck injuries, ankle sprains and more. I will bill your Workers' Compensation claim directly so that you can concentrate on healing. Please call the office today so that we can get you scheduled and on your way to healing 520.858.0350.

Melissa Miller is amazing! She was worth a 50 minute drive 3x a week for me after 2 different car accidents. She really knows what she is doing, she listens to her patients to know what they need and tailors every massage to that days needs.
Melissa's rates are very reasonable as well. She is a car accident specialist as well as having training in MANY areas and to find someone with her knowledge, skills and training at the rates she charges is fantastic.
Like I said, I drive almost an hour multiple times a week to see her and she is worth every second and every dollar.

I've been a helicopter pilot for 13 years and have had many issues with my hips, lower back and spinal inflammation, mostly due to a fracture of my L4/L5 long ago and all the issues that come with that and with sitting for hours on end in a helicopter. On a whim I went and saw Melissa to see if she could help with any of the many pains and discomforts I was having on a daily basis.
Not only was she kind and professional but right off the bat you could tell this woman knew her stuff. She talked me through why I was having so much discomfort, pain and inflammation and how best to deal with it all

I am recovering from a car accident. The therapies I receive from Melissa for my torn rotator cuff, two herniated discs, severe sciatica and muscle atrophy have given me so much relief that I am able to make great progress with my physical therapy, chiropractic adjustments, and my abilities to sit and stand for more than short periods. I am confident I will fully recover with Melissa's help! Her massages and cupping are amazing!
