If you’re looking for ways to make your massage therapy sessions more affordable, you might be wondering: Can I use my HSA (Health Savings Account) or FSA (Flexible Spending Account) to pay for massage? The answer is YES! With a few simple steps, you can use your pre-tax dollars to cover the cost of therapeutic massage, helping you feel better while saving money.
What Is an HSA or FSA?
Both HSAs and FSAs allow you to set aside pre-tax income to pay for qualified medical expenses. While these accounts typically cover doctor visits, prescriptions, and medical equipment, they can also be used for massage therapy—provided it is deemed a medically necessary treatment.
How to Use Your HSA or FSA for Massage Therapy
To use your HSA or FSA card for massage therapy, follow these steps:
Check Your Plan – Every HSA/FSA provider has different rules, so check with your account administrator to confirm that massage therapy is covered.
Get a Doctor’s Recommendation – Most providers require a Letter of Medical Necessity (LMN) from a physician stating that massage therapy is a prescribed treatment for a medical condition.
Schedule Your Massage – Once you have an LMN, you can book your session with us using your HSA or FSA card.
Save Your Receipts – Keep copies of your receipts and the doctor’s note in case your provider requests documentation.
Common Medical Reasons for Prescribed Massage Therapy
Your doctor may recommend massage therapy for a variety of conditions, including:
Chronic Pain – Conditions like fibromyalgia, arthritis, or chronic back pain often benefit from regular deep tissue or Swedish massage.
Post-Surgical Recovery – Post-op lymphatic massage helps reduce swelling and promotes faster healing after surgery.
Pregnancy Discomfort – Prenatal massage can relieve tension, improve circulation, and reduce common pregnancy-related aches and pains.
Stress & Anxiety – Stress-related conditions, migraines, and muscle tension may be alleviated through massage therapy.
Injury Rehabilitation – If you have a sports injury or repetitive strain condition, therapeutic massage can aid in recovery and mobility improvement.
