Taking care of your health and preventing pain is one of the best investments you can make. In Sweden, most employees have access to a tax-free wellness allowance (friskvårdsbidrag) from their employer, up to a maximum of 5,000 SEK per year. One of the most popular and appreciated activities to spend this allowance on is professional massage therapy. In this article, we explain how you can use your wellness allowance for massage at RYGGHJÄLP in Laholm.
The Swedish Tax Agency (Skatteverket) classifies massage as tax-free wellness, provided that the treatment is basic in nature and costs no more than 1,000 SEK per session. All of our massage treatments at RYGGHJÄLP (such as classic Swedish massage, sports massage, or lymphatic drainage) are priced below this limit. This means you can get the full amount approved by your employer without any issues of benefit taxation.
We make it easy for you to use your allowance. You can pay for your session on-site via Swish or card and receive a detailed receipt that meets all Skatteverket requirements (including 25% VAT, registration number, customer name, and treatment type). You can then submit this receipt to your HR department or upload it to your company's portal. Additionally, we are connected to leading wellness portals like Epassi and Benify, allowing you to pay directly via their applications.
By booking a regular massage in Laholm, you not only prevent muscle tension and back pain from sedentary work, but also reduce stress and improve your general mobility. Don't wait until you are in pain – utilize your wellness allowance today and invest in your well-being with a certified massage therapist with over 20 years of experience!
