Is any special training required to use an endermologie device?
All licensed health care professionals are required to meet minimal standards of care to help ensure the safety of patients and the effectiveness of treatments. One must have sufficient education and training to ensure the ability to perform the procedure within minimal standards of care. In the case of endermologie, instruction in techniques as well as in physiological effect, pathologies and contraindications would be important for any practitioner. Accordingly, a massage therapist is permitted to perform endermologie, provided that he or she is trained in the proper techniques and understands the contraindications.
