CA State Massage Therapist licensing requirements: The state of California requires only 100 hours of certified training in order to become a licensed massage therapist in the state. However, most other states require many more hours of training before a license will be granted. If planning to relocate to another state after receiving massage therapy training in California, be sure to check that state's requirement for licensure. Many massage therapy schools in California offer programs that provide over 700 hours of training, which will generally help fulfill licensing requirements of other states.
