MASSAGE THERAPY ESTABLISHMENT INSPECTION PROGRAM

All Massage Therapy Establishments within the Town of Salem are required to meet the licensing requirements established in the Salem Municipal Code, Chapter 221. These facilities must be properly licensed by the Town of Salem prior to operation. In addition, all massage practitioners must be individually licensed by the town as well as the State of NH. Practitioners must have successfully graduated from a recognized school of massage therapy or be certified by the American Massage Therapy Association. The code establishes additional criteria the establishment and practitioners must meet including:
  • Clean rooms and equipment.

  • All employees and practitioners must be modestly attired.

  • Clean sheeting and towels must be provided.

  • No alcohol or food shall be sold on the premises.

  • Hot and cold running water must be provided.

  • Toilet facilities must be provided.

  • Hours of operation posted and all doors unlocked during business hours.
Routine, unannounced inspections are conducted of all licensed establishments once per year by the Health Department. A copy of the inspection report is provided for the person in charge and issues of non-compliance are discussed. Failure to comply with violations in a timely fashion may lead to suspension of the establishment license.
