WHY WE ARE THE "FSBP EXPERTS":
We know the Foreign Service Benefits Plan inside and out!
Chiropractic Services
Whether you're dealing with the classic "computer neck" of our times, or you have chronic issues in your neck, back, or limbs, or maybe you just need help surviving language training, chiropractic care can help. Dr. Ellen will coordinate and communicate with your therapist for massage services so you experience true change. Detailed receipts provided for AFSPA submission. *
Specialized Massages
Our talented therapists go through a thorough vetting process and possess the experience and specialized skillset needed to work specifically on chronic and acute musculoskeletal conditions. This isn't the case everywhere you go! Your massage will combine both therapeutic and relaxation techniques to reach a goal that you decide together for that day.
Detailed receipt for FSBP reimbursement provided.*
Acupuncture
Our 30-minute add-on acupuncture service is designed to enhance chiropractic or massage experience and detailed receipts are provided for AFSPA submission.*
An expanded, stand-alone one-hour session can also be booked, and is partially reimbursable based on FSBP acupuncture reimbursement rates. Call today to determine which is right for you. 703-963-4257
The Body Harmony Story:
When Dr. Ellen opened her new office in Clarendon in 2021, she didn’t realize that this micro-geographic footprint put Body Harmony smack dab in the middle of “Foreign Service Territory.”
- Our proximity to FSI, and all of the individuals and families living nearby while they are in language training,
- convenient access by Metro to the Washington DC State Department and affiliated agencies,
- not to mention FREE off-street parking
All naturally made the Foreign Service community our new community. And we couldn't be happier and prouder for it.
Your receipts...done RIGHT.
Some FSBP folks have shared about having issues with massage reimbursement when receipts haven't had the necessary codes on them, their therapist had an expired license (denied!), or even discovering that their service was performed by an unlicensed individual. At Body Harmony, we thoroughly vet our therapists, confirm all licenses and insurance is up-to-date. We have the details nailed down, and ...although it happens rarely ... can recommend how to submit to reprocess a denied claim.*
Because we offer ALL FSBP wellness benefits under one roof, our Foreign Service clients and patients enjoy the unique experience of addressing their musculoskeletal and health complaints collaboratively. That's why "Body Harmony" is our name...all parts working in harmony together.
Doesn’t it make sense for your chiropractor and massage therapist (and acupuncturist!) to talk together, and to make a plan to help you experience optimal results as a team?
We think so! :)
+ workshops!
We're more than *just* a massage or chiropractic visit:
Dr Ellen feels passionately that taking care of your body isn't just about what happens during your visit. It's about helping you identify the challenges in your life that might be creating or contributing to your problem, and to help you develop strategies (targeted fitness, postural, ergonomic, even what's up with your mattress and pillow) so YOU can better care for your body for the rest of your life.
Once you are part of our "Body Harmony Family" you can access our workshops and events for FREE.
Whether it's signing up for our:
- Second Saturday "Functional Strength & Flexibility Workshop" for personalized guidance on helping you create strategies that make your fitness goals meaningful for YOU,
- a special event such as our several-times-a-year Sound Bath,
- "Foreign Service Brunches": several times a year on a Saturday we provide coffee, french pastries, and a welcoming space for our foreign service folks to gather, connect, and collaborate. Or just relax!
- "Perfect Posture" ~ "Detoxify Your Home-space" ~ DIY Body Butter workshop ~ etc.
- other rotating topics as interest is expressed.
