SB 112 Alabama Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Sunset law; Alabama Massage Therapy Licensing Board continued with modification until October 1, 2027

SB 112 extends the existence of Alabama's Massage Therapy Licensing Board until October 1, 2027, while reorganizing it as a division within the Alabama Department of Public Health. The bill requires the Department to provide all administrative services (like financial, legal, and IT support) for the board and authorizes the State Health Officer to appoint an executive director and outside counsel. This change transfers the board’s property and responsibilities to the Department, streamlining oversight for massage therapists, schools, and establishments licensed under Alabama law. The bill does not alter existing licensing standards or practice regulations.
