California Massage Therapy

Continuing Education Requirements

Massage therapy license requirements vary from state to state, and the laws are constantly changing. It's our current understanding that, in California, massage therapy is regulated by the city governments through the business license or permit process. There is no statewide licensure requirements.

We recommend that you contact the police department in the city you wish to practice and inquire directly with them about their requirements for license renewal and massage therapy continuing education acceptance.

Remember, the Institute for Integrative Healthcare Studies is approved by the NCBTMB as a continuing education Approved Provider (#049478-00). All of our continuing education programs can be used for your National Certification renewal, with the exception of Nerve Mobilization.

You may also use our credits for other organizations you belong to such as the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA) or Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals (ABMP).
