House Bill 720 amends the qualifications for members of the Board of Massage Therapy in Montana. The board will continue to consist of five members, including one health care provider who is not an owner of a massage therapy school, three massage therapists who are also not owners of such schools, and one public member. A significant change in the bill is the removal of the requirement that none of the three massage therapists may belong to the same national professional association, which has been deleted from the current law.

This revision aims to broaden the pool of eligible candidates for the board by allowing massage therapists who may belong to the same professional association to serve together. The bill maintains the overall structure of the board while updating the qualifications to better reflect the current landscape of the profession.
