Facts - Origin overview
How can I book an appointment?
Will my treatment be covered by health insurance?
We are recognized by supplementary health insurances. Our treatments can easily be reimbursed through your insurance without a doctor’s prescription. You will only receive a reimbursement form if the treating therapist is recognized by your supplementary insurance. You can easily check whether your insurance covers the therapist using our “Find-your-therapist tool.”
How does billing with health insurance work?
After your treatment, you’ll receive an email with your invoice and the reimbursement form. Send this form to your health insurer; depending on your policy, they will reimburse 50–80% of the treatment cost.
Depending on the health insurance provider, the amount of reimbursement may be based on the title of the therapist (e.g., medical masseur, naturopath, certified professional masseur, therapeutic masseur).
I need to cancel my appointment – what should I keep in mind?
Medical massage is particularly suitable for the following conditions
Medical massage is particularly suitable for muscular tension in the neck, shoulder, and back areas. Medical massage can also help to relax the muscles and promote blood circulation in cases of restricted movement caused by uneven strain or prolonged sitting.
I have a physiotherapy prescription — can I use it?
At Origin Massage, services are billed through supplementary insurance.
Physiotherapy prescriptions are covered by basic insurance and therefore cannot be billed through us.
What should I keep in mind before the appointment?
We are happy to be your island of calm in everyday life. Try to leave stress outside, simply enjoy the moment with us, and connect with your body. Switch off your smartphone and prepare yourself mentally for the massage – a little piece of wellness. It truly makes a difference!
What should I keep in mind after the appointment?
Enjoy the relaxation after your treatment. Avoid intense activities such as sports or physical work, and give your body time to rest. Ideally, keep your schedule free and simply follow what you feel like doing in the moment.
Where can I buy a gift voucher?
You can easily order your voucher online. Just click on this link to proceed with your order.

Medical massage at Origin Massage Basel

What you can do after a massage at Origin Massage in Basel
After a relaxing massage, it is important to enjoy the moment of rest and give your body time to process the beneficial effects of the treatment. At our location directly on Basel’s market square, there are numerous ways to spend a relaxing and fulfilling day:
The Rhine is just a few minutes’ walk from the market square. A walk along the river is the perfect way to take a deep breath and enjoy nature. If you are looking for even more peace and quiet, you can also visit the nearby Botanical Gardens of the University of Basel. The green oases invite you to relax and linger.
Basel is widely known for its diverse art and cultural scene. After a massage, you can visit an exhibition, for example at the Kunstmuseum Basel or the nearby Museum Tinguely.
You can also take advantage of the relaxed atmosphere after a massage to stroll through the winding streets of Basel’s old town. Visit sights such as Basel Town Hall or St. Martin’s Church and enjoy the city’s unique architecture over a delicious tea or coffee in one of the cozy cafés in Basel’s city center.
A massage on Basel’s market square is the perfect start to a relaxing day. Combine relaxation with the many possibilities offered by the surroundings and give your body and mind the attention they deserve.
