for massage therapy in conjunction with medical practice or <br />chiropractor. <br />Shoreview - <br />Licenses both massage parlors ($50 license fee ) and massage <br />therapy ($25.00 license fee). <br />Vadnais Heights - <br />No ordinance. This city attempts to regulate massage therapy <br />through zoning and attempts to verify that the business is <br />legitimate. Recently issued the only massage therapy license in <br />the City, and it was associated with a chiropractor. Charged $40 <br />general business license fee. <br />Based upon the results of this survey, it is staff's <br />recommendation that the City Attorney be instructed to prepare a <br />Massage Therapy Ordinance similar to the one adopted by the City <br />of Roseville. This ordinance requires the licensing of massage <br />therapy in conjunction with beauty salons, while distinguishing <br />massage therapy from the licensed practice of medicine, <br />chiropractic and athletic therapy. (See copy of ordinance <br />attached.) <br />I have also attached a copy of the City's Sauna /Massage Parlor <br />Ordinance for the Council's reference. The City Attorney should <br />take whatever steps necessary to ensure consistency between the <br />two ordinances. <br />Page 87 <br />
