What does it take to become a massage therapist?
The dictionary of Occupation Titles indicates that one can learn massage in less than a month. That would equate to 100125 hours of training. In California, there are presently no licensing requirements, so in point of fact, one would be able to practice with no training. However, cities require a massage certificate to become licensed in that city, and employers require insurance, which necessitates having a massage certificate from a licensed vocational school, and massage suave clients, of course, are interested in credentials.
