What action may cause the revocation of a massage therapy license?

Abandoning the premises refers to a situation where a massage therapist leaves their workplace inappropriately, which can indicate a lack of professionalism and responsibility. This action may jeopardize client safety and well-being, as well as violate licensing regulations that require therapists to maintain a physical presence during service delivery. Such behavior can be seen as abandoning the duty of care owed to clients, thus potentially leading to the revocation of a massage therapy license.

In contrast, failing to renew the license typically results in a lapse rather than a revocation, allowing for the possibility of reinstatement with proper renewal procedures. Practicing without supervision may indicate a breach of practice standards, but often it would lead to disciplinary action or penalties rather than immediate revocation. Charging excessive fees could lead to ethical concerns but does not directly violate licensing laws in most jurisdictions. Thus, abandoning the premises is a clearly defined breach that poses significant risks and is likely to result in severe disciplinary consequences.
