In a litigious society, every professional needs to make sure they are protected by insurance and that is not limited only to the services provided. Massage therapy liability insurance can help save you from financial disaster in the event of a claim against you for injuries from a massage, but also from general liability in event of an injury on the property on which you conduct your business.

Most professionals rarely have any complaints filed by their customers, but with many lawsuits being filed today over some of the most obscure causes, protecting yourself against financial ruin with massage therapy liability insurance in the event an unhappy client decides to take you to court. Someone may not reveal physical problems that may preclude them from being an ideal candidate for a massage, and after the services have been rendered, choose to take action for any exacerbation of the problem resulting from the hands-on treatment.

Regardless of the type of hands-on services being offered, customers will probably be visiting you at your place of business, adding to the possibility of facing legal action in the event of an injury. When a person visits a place of business there is an unstated implied level of safety they should expect. Coupled with massage therapy liability insurance, general liability can protect you from slips and falls while the customer is entering or leaving your place of business.

Renting Space For Your Massage Therapy Business Offers Little Protection

Even if a person rents a place of business and the building’s owner carries liability insurance, the business into which the customer is entering is still liable for any injuries sustained on the property. Offering a safe environment is your responsibility and fault and claims will be assigned accordingly. With massage therapy liability insurance and its included general liability coverage, the cost will be contingent on past performances and claims.

Additionally if a client suffers other types of injuries, for example is bitten by a dog or cat while visiting your business, massage therapy liability insurance including general liability insurance may be your savior. Even if you do not own the dog or cat, you can still be liable for allowing the animal to be on your premises.

With all types of massage therapy liability insurance there will be disclaimers and exclusions based on the types of claims being made. For example, if a massage therapist is accused of inappropriate sexual misconduct, insurance will not cover the claims. Even students should have coverage with a massage therapy liability insurance policy, usually available at a reduced cost.
