BBI is the coverage you need
Even people who are absolute experts in their profession will occasionally have something go wrong. What if a client claimed you hurt their neck during their chair massage therapy session and now they can’t turn their head? What if a client trips and falls and hurts themselves while at your studio? It is crucial you have the correct type of liability coverage in case of an injury or lawsuit.
Obtaining chair massage insurance from Beauty and Bodywork Insurance (BBI) provides professionals with affordable liability coverage.
What is chair massage liability insurance?
While chair massages generally only last 15-20 minutes, you’re just as susceptible to injuries and accidents as other massage therapists. Chair massage liability insurance, or public liability insurance, protects your business from liability claims. Examples of claims include bodily injury, property damage, allergic reactions to oils, and more. Our chair massage insurance coverage includes general & professional liability, products & completed operations, personal & advertising injury, and damage to premises rented to you.
The chairs you work with are the key to your business. Your coverage can also include tools and supplies coverage, also known as Inland Marine, to help to cover any damages to your chair or supplies.
How much does chair massage insurance cost?
Insurance for chair massage professionals starts at $96 and includes $3 million in general & professional liability coverage.
You can customize your chair massage insurance policy from there. For instance, if you rent the space where you operate your chair, the owner may require you add them as an additional insured. If they are named in a lawsuit due to a covered business-related loss or claim, they receive protection as an additional insured. You can add one additional insured for $15 or unlimited for $30.
You might want to include cupping as a part of your services. A cupping endorsement is available for $35.
And then there’s your tools and supplies. Add protection for $13 and we’ll provide $2,000 in coverage in case of damage or theft.
Your application can be completed in less time than one of your chair massages takes. Please note you will not qualify for coverage under these prices if your services include any of the excluded methods listed on our site. BBI does not offer monthly payments for chair massage liability insurance.
Do I need chair massage liability insurance?
Some owners will require it to operate in their building. Chair massage professionals can always benefit from carrying liability insurance. While you aim to relax clients’ backs and necks in a short period of time, we understand accidents happen. One accident can really sink your business. Injury from a chair massage can result in a lawsuit that could cost you thousands of dollars.
So, it’s best to be covered and not worry about the what ifs. A Beauty and Bodywork policy that has professional coverage for the best insurance to meet your needs as you give chair massages to your clients.
