Do spa owners need insurance?

Yes! Spa owners need insurance to legally operate in many states and to meet landlord or vendor requirements. Here’s why it matters: 

  • Compliance: Workers’ compensation is required by law if you have employees. Many landlords also require proof of general liability before you can sign a lease. 
  • Licensing: Some state boards require insurance as part of professional licensing or business registration. 
  • Client Trust: Insurance signals professionalism, helping you build trust with clients by showing your business is protected. 
  • Financial Protection: Without insurance, a single lawsuit or property issue could result in major out-of-pocket costs.
