Most states require a massage therapist to be licensed. The licensing requirements differ from state to state, but you must attend classes for proper instruction.





The classes can run anywhere from 3-6 months depending on where they are taken and how extensive they are.





As for online classes? Don't bother with them. For you to be an effective massage therepist you need to have personal instruction and ';hands on'; training.
