Medissage Outreach’s hands-on, manual-intervention program—bringing medical massage together with wellness peer support and education for people living with chronic pain.
Through The Medissage Way, we are building Houston partnerships that connect people with support in the places they already trust.
Share your goals, then choose a partnership meeting time.
The rEboosTx program
Structure and consistency for chronic-pain support.
Participants living with chronic pain bring their goals and preferences to a connected care plan. rEboosTx brings therapeutic care, guided engagement, and coordination together to support consistent participation and practical next steps.
Three pillars of rEboosTx
Medical Massage
Outcome-focused sessions designed to address pain patterns, improve function, and support diagnosis-informed care.
Supportive Engagement
Guided support that reinforces accountability, consistency, and long-term participation in care.
Coordinated Model
A flexible structure that allows integration with clinics, organizations, and future healthcare partnerships.
Medical massage is the manual intervention within this program. Peer support, education, and coordination support the person around that hands-on care; they do not replace clinical assessment or treatment.
Diagnosis-informed medical massage. Connected care.
rEboosTx medical massage is diagnosis-informed therapeutic manual care, coordinated with pain-management and other referring providers. The plan centers specific referral needs, individualized pain and function goals, and ongoing review within the massage professional’s scope. Wellness peer support, coaching, daily practices, and nutrition education connect that care with the participant’s wider goals.
Medical massage · Referral-led therapeutic care
Work from the referring provider’s diagnosis and care recommendations—not a new diagnosis by the massage professional. Agree treatment goals, review pain and everyday function, and coordinate appropriate updates with the care team and participant consent.
Whole-person wellness · Put goals into practice
Connect therapeutic manual care with supportive relationships, daily routines, nutrition education, and meaningful community participation. Wellness peer coaching helps you practice the next steps you choose.
Within medication-assisted treatment (MAT), medical massage may be included as a complementary intervention when the treating team determines it is appropriate. It does not replace medication, counseling, withdrawal management, or other prescribed care.
From wellness peer support to wellness peer coaching
Stay connected. Practice wellness. Choose SMART goals—specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound. Review progress together and connect with the professionals needed for the next step.
How it works
A four-step process.
1
Assessment
Participants are evaluated to understand pain patterns and functional needs.
Start with the participant’s goals and PROMIS® patient-reported assessment, alongside the appropriate professional assessment of pain and everyday function.
BiologicalPsychological
2
Treatment Plan & Hands-On Care
A structured approach is created using medical massage and supportive engagement.
Appropriate hands-on sessions follow the plan and the qualified professional’s scope of practice.
Biological
3
Ongoing Support
Participants receive continued guidance to maintain progress and consistency.
Wellness peer support builds connection. Wellness peer coaching turns that connection into person-led wellness practices, SMART goals, and connections to the right next-step professionals. Prysm iO supports a separate nutritional-wellness conversation.

Two tools. Different roles in whole-person support.
PROMIS® · The participant’s perspective
Medissage uses PROMIS patient-reported assessment to help understand the participant’s experience. PROMIS measures assess physical, mental, and social health; the selected measures and review schedule are part of the care plan.
Prysm iO provides a non-invasive skin-carotenoid reading to support nutritional-wellness education. Explore everyday food and wellness choices, with connections to qualified nutrition or medical professionals when appropriate. The reading is not a diagnosis or proof that a treatment has worked.
Bring the people providing support into the same conversation: clarify referrals, agree each service’s role, and plan the next step around the participant.
Behavioral health centers
The rEboosTx model was included in a pilot within New Hope Behavioral Health Center’s intensive outpatient program in Mesa, Arizona. That experience is a starting point for other centers to adapt the model to their patients, workflows, and clinical oversight. Referral criteria, professional scope, and follow-up are agreed with each host team.
Explore integration into your intensive outpatient program (IOP) or other behavioral health services.
Explore appropriate referrals and community follow-through for people living with persistent pain. Clinical decisions remain with the treating team.
Shelters & housing programs
Explore accessible education, wellness peer support, and warm referrals that take transportation, communication, and housing transitions into account.
The Medissage Way
One person. Connected support.
rEboosTx is the chronic-pain support pathway within a whole-person approach. The goal is clearer handoffs—not another disconnected service.
The person and community at the center
Primary care clinics
Behavioral health
Specialty care
Hospitals & health systems
Community organizations
Social services & supports
The coordinated model is designed to strengthen community relationships, improve access to appropriate support, and adapt as needs change. Communication and follow-up are agreed with each partner; outcomes are reviewed rather than guaranteed.
Their goals, consent, cultural preferences, and access needs guide each handoff.

rEboosTx → Wellness peer coaching
rEboosTx brings hands-on pain and physical-recovery support with wellness peer support. Wellness peer coaching continues wraparound support: daily practices, Wellness Builders Workshop, SMART goals, and work-support navigation.
Follow-up returns to the participant and the agreed care team.
Participant choice guides the pathway. Track referrals and service status, share appropriate updates with consent, and review SMART goals together. Services are matched to needs—not a requirement to complete every stage.
Care that sees the whole person.
The Medissage Wellness Wheel keeps physical needs, emotional wellbeing, relationships, and culture in view. Participants help shape their own goals.
Biological
Body, comfort, movement, and everyday routines.
Psychological
Stress, coping, confidence, and learning.
Social
Belonging, practical support, and trusted connections.

Patient Testimony
"After being in a back brace for 3 months, I found that my hip had compensated for the immobility of my back. It had become as painful as my back. I attended six weeks of physical therapy with not much progress being made on my hip pain. I attended weekly treatments with Medissage and finally found relief."

Evidence & care safety · Service scope and coordination
Assessment and medical massage are provided by appropriately qualified professionals, within their scope and when suitable for the participant. Wellness education and peer support complement—not replace—medical or behavioral health treatment. Availability and individual results vary.
Houston expansion and partnership pathways describe planned opportunities, not an operating pilot or confirmed hospital/shelter integrations. Services, eligibility, staffing, referral responsibilities, and communication arrangements are agreed before delivery.
Personal information is shared only with consent and through an agreed secure process. This website is not clinical intake and does not represent an active automated health-record connection.
Massage is not a detox treatment and does not remove medications or substances, replace withdrawal care, or establish that trauma has been released or hormones regulated. A trauma-informed approach centers choice, permission, boundaries, and the ability to pause or decline touch.
PROMIS measures and review schedules are selected for the care plan. Prysm iO is a separate wellness tool, not a diagnostic test or proof of treatment effectiveness.
Evidence in context
“Pain is always a personal experience that is influenced to varying degrees by biological, psychological, and social factors.”
We welcome conversations with veteran-serving organizations about appropriate chronic-pain education, peer support, and referral pathways. Participation and services depend on the agreed program scope.
