HB2199

HB2199 amends the Massage Therapy Practice Act to clarify title protection for massage therapists.

HB2199 amends the Massage Therapy Practice Act to ensure that only authorized individuals can use the terms "massage," "massage therapy," or "massage therapist" when advertising or printing promotional material. It prohibits salons from offering massage therapy services unless registered and compliant with the Act. The bill also penalizes those who knowingly employ unauthorized individuals or use the restricted terms in advertising. This change aims to protect the professional title of massage therapists and maintain service quality standards.
