Temperatures are dropping, and the demand for saunas is heating up.
A home sauna is one of the more surprisingly eligible purchases in the Truemed catalog.
For qualified customers, a sauna or heat therapy device may be HSA/FSA eligible with a Letter of Medical Necessity.

Why It Matters Now
|
|
Sauna interest climbs every winter. Shorter days, colder mornings, and more time indoors make a warm routine at home easy to look forward to.
Home saunas also sit next to items that look nothing like health equipment on paper. A barrel sauna in the backyard and a pair of blue light glasses can both run through the same
HSA/FSA eligibility process.

How A Home Sauna May Qualify
|
|
A sauna is a bigger purchase, so it helps to know how eligibility works before you shop. It comes down to whether an independent licensed practitioner documents that the purchase treats, mitigates, or prevents a diagnosed condition.
Our guide on
how a sauna can qualify walks through the steps, and the blog of the week below covers what research on regular sauna use has looked at.
If you are spending from an FSA, check your plan year end date before a larger purchase.
HSA balances work differently and do not expire, so there is no year-end deadline on that side.

What's in Dave Asprey's health stack?
|
|
We asked Dave Asprey, founder of The Asprey Group, what a normal day looks like. Dave's stack comes down to three habits: a daily vitamin, an upgraded morning coffee, and an evening light routine.

Daily Foundation
|
|
Suppgrade Labs DAKE® is Dave's daily essential: vitamins D, A, K and E in one supplement, and the base of the rest of the stack.
|
|
|
Morning Coffee
|
|
Dave stirs Danger Creatine from
Danger Coffee into the morning cup. Each serving adds creatine plus electrolytes and trace minerals.
|
|
|
Evening Light
|
|
As it gets dark, Dave puts on
TrueDark Sunsets, glasses made to filter blue and violet light, as a cue that the evening has started.
|
|
|
Why HSA/FSA?
|
|
All three brands are listed on Truemed, and qualified customers may be able to pay with HSA/FSA funds when they check out with the brand.
