HB 161 -- Massage Therapy Sponsor: Salva This bill provides a licensing exemption for out-of-state massage therapists wishing to provide massage therapy services when acting as part of emergency response teams working in conjunction with disaster relief. The bill further provides for a special events permit to out-of-state licensed massage therapists wishing to provide massage therapy services at special events held within this state.
