Hanson <br />Below is a summary of information I obtained from surrounding <br />cities regarding the licensing of massage parlors and /or massage <br />therapy. I have copies of ordinances from each of these cities <br />if the Council is interested in reviewing this information. <br />Arden Hills - <br />Licenses massage parlors, and has a limit of two such licenses <br />within the City. Massage therapy in conjunction with a medical <br />practice, athletic, sports, or health clubs, educational <br />institutions, athletic teams, manicurists, beauty /barber shops <br />are exempt from the provisions of the massage parlor ordinance <br />and do not require licensing. <br />Falcon Heights - <br />Licenses therapeutic massage - $200 on -time investigation fee and <br />$100 annual license fee. Insurance and training requirements. <br />Licensing is not required in conjunction with <br />medical /chiropractic business, or a beauty salon where massage is <br />incidental to the business. <br />Maplewood - <br />This city has an ordinance governing massage parlors, but not <br />massage therapy. They have been getting more and more requests <br />for massage therapy. Therefore, may be considering an ordinance <br />for addressing massage therapy in the future. <br />Roseville - <br />Last year Roseville adopted a massage therapy ordinance. The <br />ordinance pertains only to massage therapy in conjunction with a <br />beauty parlor. $150 license fee for therapist and $300 license <br />fee for place of business. The City does not require a license <br />Page 86 <br />
