Do massage therapists see a lot of acne?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
See below: They may see it but they don't treat it. At least in most states. If a massage therapist is treating acne, purports to be treating acne or infers that they are treating acne, i would be very skeptical and check into it very carefully. You may wish to call the state board over massage therapists and inquire. Proceed with caution.
