Mississippi Massage Therapy

Continuing Education Requirements

Massage therapy license requirements vary from state to state and the laws are constantly changing. It is our current understanding that Mississippi requires massage therapists to complete 24 CE hours every 2 years for license renewal, of which 3 CE hours must be in Mississippi Law, Rules and Regulations, 3 CE hours must be in Ethics, and 3 hours must be in CPR/First Aid renewal from a recognized MSBMT provider.

IMPORTANT: The Mississippi Board eliminated the requirement for classroom/interactive hours for renewal. You can now earn all your hours through home study or online programs.

If you would like to verify this information, or have further questions regarding your massage therapy continuing education requirements, we suggest contacting the Mississippi Board of Massage directly. The telephone number for the Mississippi Board is 601-732-6038 or visit their website at http://www.msbmt.ms.gov/SitePages/Home.aspx.

Remember, the Institute for Integrative Healthcare Studies is approved by the NCBTMB as a continuing education Approved Provider (#049478-00) and Health Positive! is a division of the Institute. All of our continuing education programs can be used for your Board Certification renewal.

You may also use our credits for other organizations you belong to such as the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA) or Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals (ABMP).
