Massage hours ordinance

A CAMTC-certified therapist with 18 years in Roseville argued massage therapists are healthcare providers under state law and hours limits shouldn't apply to legitimate care.

A small business owner and therapist said his practice is booked through 2026 and provided 2,293 evening appointments from 2022-2025 worth about $334,000, urging the council to preserve current hours.

Owner of Unbound Body Works said her evening slots are routinely fully booked and the cut would give therapists the shortest work window in the region, hurting working-class clients.

Argued illegal activity happens at all hours, so cutting hours only harms legitimate businesses and residents seeking evening healthcare, and would drive revenue to other cities.
