Do I need a licence to open an acupuncture / manicure / pedicure or massage salon?
Yes. Any premises offering massage and special treatments must be registered with the Council. It is illegal to conduct any special treatment (including ear piercing, tattooing, acupuncture or electrolysis) unless the registration has been formally approved. There are specific requirements and conditions applied to all licenses that you will need to be aware of, these are available by contacting the Licensing Service.
