Massage therapy license requirements vary from state to state, and the laws are constantly changing. It's our current understanding that, in South Dakota, 8 massage therapy continuing education credits are required every 2 years for professional license renewal. However, only 4 of the 8 credits can be obtained through our home study programs.
It is our understanding that the South Dakota Board of Massage will accept our programs to fulfill the 4 home study continuing education credits because the Institute for Integrative Healthcare Studies is approved by the NCBTMb as a continuing education Approved Provider (#049478-00).
If you would like to verify this information, or have further questions regarding your massage therapy continuing education requirements, we suggest contacting the South Dakota Board of Massage directly. The telephone number for the South Dakota Board is 605-271-7103 or visit their website at http://massage.sd.gov.
Remember, the Institute for Integrative Healthcare Studies is approved by the NCBTMB as a continuing education Approved Provider (#049478-00). All of our continuing education programs can be used for your National Certification renewal.
You may also use our credits for other organizations you belong to such as the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA) or Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals (ABMP).
