California Massage Law

Description
This is a talk about California's New Massage Law given by Dr. James Mally at Healing Arts Institute on November 13, 2009.
The talk is 45 minutes, with the last six minutes devoted to describing the Massage Technique Library. If you are interested in the Massage Technique Library click here for more information.
In the talk I explain the law and outline the different pathways to certification that the law allows. For prospective students and new graduates one of the more relevant pathways to certification is pathway "E" discussed at 6 minutes 45 seconds into the talk. This is the grandfathering provision that is in effect until Jan. 1, 2012.
