Maryland Board of Chiropractic and Massage Therapy Examiners: Can they FIND You or will they FINE You?

Attention Maryland Massage Therapists and Registered Massage Practitioners! Are you aware of the requirement to notify the Maryland Board of Chiropractic and Massage Therapy Examiners of any change of address within 60 days of moving? If you do not notify them in a timely manner and they send mail to your address which is returned to the board, you will be fined $100 which must be paid before you can renew your license. Don’t get caught! Notify the board promptly by mail and be sure to get a return receipt so you have proof they received it. The change of address form for this is located under the Forms and Information tab at http://mdmassage.org/.

Send your change of address to:

Ms. Emily Jones
Massage Therapy Program
4201 Patterson Avenue
Baltimore, MD 21215-2299

If you have recently moved or have plans to move, please keep this requirement in mind – and save yourself $100 and a lot of grief!

You can also e-mail Ms. Jones at jonesel@dhmh.state.md.us, but make sure you get a return e-mail confirming that she has received your change of address. Be sure to include your license or registration number and effective date of move (within 60 days!). Save the reply as confirmation. If you do not receive a reply, send your notification by mail with a return request.
