Prescription + Potential Sales-Tax Savings
A licensed provider may be able to prescribe a therapy spa.
In some states, a prescription may support a sales-tax exemption on a qualifying therapy spa purchase. Start with a short online questionnaire. A licensed provider reviews your information and, when appropriate, issues a written prescription. The consultation costs $99 and is often completed the same day.
Before you pay
A prescription is not guaranteed and does not by itself guarantee a tax exemption. State rules and product eligibility vary. Confirm the requirements with your local showroom before paying the consultation fee.

How It Works
Three decisions, one clear path
The process is simple, but the decisions happen in different places. A provider decides whether a prescription is appropriate. Your showroom then confirms whether your state and selected spa meet the requirements for a sales-tax exemption.
01
Confirm the opportunity with a showroom
Before paying for the consultation, ask your local showroom whether your state may recognize this type of exemption and whether the spa you are considering could qualify.
02
Complete the online questionnaire
Share why you are considering a therapy spa and provide the information required for a licensed provider to review your request. Most people finish in about 10 minutes.
03
Receive the provider decision
The licensed provider reviews your responses and decides whether issuing a prescription is appropriate. The consultation costs $99.
04
Bring the documentation to the showroom
If a prescription is issued, share it with your showroom. The showroom confirms whether the state and product requirements are met before the purchase is completed.
The distinction that governs this page
Two approvals matter
Check your state and product eligibility with a showroom before you begin.
Approval one
A licensed provider decides whether a prescription is appropriate
That decision is clinical, and it is theirs. The $99 consultation covers the provider review and, when appropriate, the written prescription.
Approval two
Your showroom determines whether the state and the spa meet the requirements
That decision is about tax rules and product definitions, and it is separate from the clinical one. Neither approval implies the other.
Check Your State
Confirm the purchase path before you pay
Sales-tax rules vary by state, and a prescription alone may not be enough. The spa itself may also need to meet your state’s definition of qualifying equipment. Ask your local showroom to confirm the rules for your state and the model you are considering before paying for the consultation.
Your showroom can help confirm two things
- Whether your state recognizes a potential exemption path for this type of purchase.
- Whether the spa you are considering may meet the applicable product requirements.

Why a Therapy Spa
Choose the spa for the way it will actually be used
A prescription does not make every hot tub a therapy spa. Seating depth, entry, temperature control and adjustable jet pressure can all affect how practical the spa is for regular use. A showroom visit gives you the chance to sit in the models, compare the features and choose the right fit before purchase.
Frequently Asked Questions
Questions people actually ask
Does a prescription mean insurance will pay for the spa?
No. A prescription does not guarantee insurance coverage or reimbursement. Coverage decisions belong to your insurer, and this purchase is not made through one.
What does the $99 cover?
The online questionnaire, a licensed provider review, and a written prescription when the provider decides one is appropriate — plus documentation you can share with your showroom.
Am I guaranteed to receive a prescription?
No. The licensed provider decides whether a prescription is appropriate after reviewing your questionnaire. The fee covers the review, not the outcome.
Does a prescription automatically remove sales tax?
No. Tax treatment is determined by applicable state rules and product eligibility. Your showroom confirms whether the state and the selected spa meet the requirements.
What if my state does not allow the exemption?
Confirm with your local showroom before paying the consultation fee. If your state does not recognize this path, the consultation will not change the tax treatment of the purchase.
Can I use HSA or FSA funds?
We cannot advise on HSA or FSA eligibility, and a prescription does not guarantee it. Ask your plan administrator or a tax professional.
How long does the process take?
The questionnaire takes about 10 minutes, and the provider review is often completed the same day.
What happens after a prescription is issued?
Share the documentation with your showroom. The showroom confirms whether the state and product requirements are met before the purchase is completed.
Before You Buy
A few important things to confirm
The consultation, tax treatment and spa purchase are separate decisions. Confirm the current requirements before paying, and use the spa according to the manufacturer’s instructions and your healthcare provider’s guidance.
Confirm the purchase path
- Ask the showroom whether your state may recognize an exemption path.
- Confirm whether the selected spa may meet the applicable product requirements.
- Understand that a prescription does not guarantee tax-free treatment.
- Verify the current rules before paying the consultation fee or completing the purchase.
Use hot water safely
- Do not exceed 104°F (40°C).
- Ask a healthcare provider about hot-tub use during pregnancy.
- People with cardiovascular conditions, high or low blood pressure, reduced sensation or other medical concerns should seek individualized guidance.
- Do not combine alcohol with hot-water immersion.
- Follow the manufacturer's instructions and begin conservatively if you are new to hot-water immersion.
Prescription and tax eligibility. Requirements vary by location, product, documentation, and purchase process. A prescription does not guarantee a sales-tax exemption, insurance coverage, reimbursement, or HSA/FSA eligibility. The licensed provider determines whether a prescription is appropriate; confirm current requirements with your local showroom and a qualified tax professional before paying for a consultation or completing a purchase.
Confirm First
