zianurayA couple of weeks ago, I sent this to the state board asking for a clarification:
Subject: Questions about on-site sites
In Title 4, Div 197, chapter 5, specifications are listed for massage businesses and on-site massage requirements.
Are only the specific examples listed permitted, i.e. health fairs, sports events, trade shows, and healthcare facilities?
Is it permitted to set up at a Farmers' Market or a Renaissance Faire or Community-sponsored Picnic-in-the-Park? If so, would my wallet-size license card and state driver's license be adequate ID or would I want to bring my original license from the wall of my studio?
*********************************************************************
A week later, I got this:
The wallet card is fine. You need to have some type of consent form the client agreeing to allow the massage, no contraindications etc.
********************************************************************
As far as I can tell, this does not ANSWER the first question, but implies (or leads the reader to infer) that it would be permitted.
Yeah, I'm resending...twerps. But what does one expect from a state office?
***************ETA: Question answered officially -- next post!**************************************

The office I used to work for required, for instance, a release from OB-GYN or midwife to work on any pregnant woman... and I'm sure there are conditions that you would know better than I when a person should not recieve a massage.
Hope this is more helpful than the officials!
