Massage Therapy

Massage Therapy

Minnesota does not have any state regulations for massage therapy, therefore we are unable to determine whether our program would meet licensure requirements in any other state except Minnesota. Some cities and counties do have requirements, so it is important to contact a representative in the area you plan to operate in. Visit Massage and Bodywork State Licensing Requirements for more information.
