Is Massage Gun / Percussion Massager HSA/FSA Eligible?
Treated as general wellness by default. An LMN tying it to treatment of a specific injury or condition can make it eligible.
How the rule applies
A massage gun is treated as a general wellness product by default. It can be eligible only if a provider ties it to the treatment of a specific injury or condition.
What to keep for your records
If you want to try, ask your doctor or physical therapist for a Letter of Medical Necessity that names your condition and the device. Keep the letter and the receipt.
Watch out for
Many plan administrators reject these even with a letter. Ask your administrator first, and do not buy expecting reimbursement.
