Relating to: licensure and regulation of establishments providing massage therapy or bodywork therapy, the practice of massage therapy or bodywork therapy, and granting rule-making authority. (FE)

AB 1013 updates Wisconsin's licensing rules for massage therapy and bodywork therapy businesses. It creates clear definitions for business types (like mobile services, out-call appointments, and sole practitioner operations) and allows reduced license fees for sole practitioners. The bill also establishes a "responsible manager" role for businesses and clarifies that fingerprinting is generally prohibited for licensing, except in specific cases. These changes aim to modernize the regulatory framework for massage therapy providers and their establishments.
