Want to become a Licensed Massage Therapist in FL?
If you love the art of massage and have a passion for helping others then maybe becoming a licensed massage therapist is for you. The massage therapy is very broad with many different avenues of work fields you can enter into once you have completed all requirements and have gained your license. Take me for example, I decided to do mobile massage for a while after I received my license and I love it.
Each state has their own requirements for massage and FL is no different. Below are the requirements for obtaining your massage license for FL. This information has been provided by AMTA website @ the following link:
