What can I do to check up on a health spa and make sure it’s registered and bonded before I sign a contract?
You may search the list of registered health spas on the SOS web site to find out whether the health spa is registered and has posted security. If the health spa is not exempt from the security requirements and has posted a security bond or cash, the search results will display the surety or bank. Also, the Federal Trade Commission suggests that you contact the Better Business Bureau and the Consumer Protection Division of the Office of the Attorney General prior to joining a health spa. Additional suggestions from the FTC.
