Massage License Not Required for NJ Reiki Practitioners

At its meeting on September 26, 2012, the New Jersey Massage Board indicated, in response to an inquiry from a Reiki practitioner, that a massage license is not required for people who practice only Reiki in New Jersey.  Click here to read the relevant Board meeting minutes (see page 3, paragraph E).  ABMP’s Director of Government Relations Jean Robinson attended a subsequent Board meeting in March 2013 and confirmed that the Board’s position is that Reiki practitioners are exempt from the NJ licensure requirement.  Therefore, the Board has clarified that if you practice only Reiki, you do not need to obtain a NJ massage license.
