Are you looking to improve your fitness, enhance your lifestyle, or work toward your wellness goals without breaking the bank? Central Ohio Spine and Joint (COSJ) is excited to announce that we now accept Health Savings Account (HSA) payments for personal training and nutrition/lifestyle coaching services. This means you can take advantage of significant cost savings while investing in your health and well-being.

Let’s dive into how you can leverage your HSA funds to achieve your fitness goals and why this is a game-changer for COSJ patients.


What is an HSA?

A Health Savings Account (HSA) is a tax-advantaged account designed to help you save for qualified medical expenses. Contributions to your HSA are tax-free, and withdrawals for eligible healthcare expenses are also tax-free. If you have a high-deductible health plan (HDHP), an HSA is a powerful tool to cover healthcare costs, from doctor visits to prescriptions—and now, at COSJ, personal training and lifestyle coaching.


Why Use Your HSA for Personal Training and Coaching?

Traditionally, HSA funds were only applicable to specific medical expenses. However, as health and wellness have become integral to preventive care, some services like medically-directed personal training and nutrition coaching are now recognized as eligible HSA expenses. This opens the door to more accessible and affordable options for improving your overall health.

Here’s why you should use your HSA for personal training at COSJ:

  1. Tax Savings on Every Dollar
    • Using HSA funds is essentially like getting a discount. Every dollar you use for personal training or coaching is pre-tax, meaning you avoid federal, state, and payroll taxes. This can save you anywhere from 20-30% compared to paying out of pocket.
  2. Improved Health at a Lower Cost
    • Investing in fitness and wellness coaching can lead to better health outcomes, reducing your need for costly medical treatments down the line. With HSA funds, you’re not just saving on training—you’re potentially saving on future healthcare costs.
  3. No Out-of-Pocket Financial Stress
    • For many, paying for personal training or coaching upfront can feel like a stretch. Using your HSA alleviates this financial burden, allowing you to focus on your health without worry.
  4. Comprehensive Support Under One Roof
    • At COSJ, we integrate personal training, nutrition/lifestyle coaching, and chiropractic care to provide a well-rounded, medically-guided approach to wellness. Your HSA helps you tap into all these benefits affordably.
