AG revokes licenses of male massage therapists for sexually touching female customers
New Jersey has revoked the massage therapy licenses of nine male massage therapists in last twelve months because the touched female customers in an unwanted sexual manner, Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal announced today.
“No client or patient should ever have to fear for their personal safety while interacting with a licensed professional in this state,” said Attorney General Grewal. “We are committed to ensuring that all our professional boards hold licensees to the same strict standards, and act swiftly to address allegations of sexual misconduct and abuse involving licensees. By revoking the licenses of massage therapists who prey on their clients, the Board is carrying out its duty to protect the public.”
