Applicants are not required to provide documentation of qualifications, examinations, or education.
An applicant that holds, in good standing, a massage therapist, bodyworker, or touch professional license or authorization to practice in another US or Canadian jurisdiction, is eligible to register for practice in Vermont by submitting a verification of licensure.
The Massage Therapy registration is subject to renewal every two years.
Continuing Education Information
Registered massage therapist, bodyworkers, and touch professionals are not required to complete any continuing education to maintain registration with the State of Vermont.
