**Therasage EMC does its best to keep updated with the ever-changing Animal Massage Laws /Regulations. Please check the state Veterinarian Animal Practice Act for the state you want to work in before registering.
**Arizona State Requirements **
Arizona law restricts the use of the terms “therapist” and “certification” to programs that lead to a state-licensed profession. Because animal bodywork is not a licensed profession in Arizona, we do not use those terms for our Arizona offerings.
Arizona students may enroll in our 39.5-hour training program for $999.00 and will receive a "Certificate of Completion". In other states, this same program is recognized as a certification program, but Arizona requires different terminology.
**We also review Arizona’s legal requirements and terminology rules in class, so every student understands how to stay compliant when practicing in the state.
​
ALSO: Please confirm your registration with our office before making any travel arrangements.
