License Exemption

As a therapy that utilizes touch, Craniosacral Therapy falls under the regulation of most state boards of massage therapy.  Craniosacral therapists who are actively certified by The Carol Gray Center for CST Studies, however, may meet the requirements of their state board for exemption from licensing. 

The following states currently offer exemption for certain touch therapies: 

Alaska
Arizona
California
Colorado – Requires Unlicensed Disclosure
Georgia
Idaho – Specifically Names CST
Illinois
Iowa
Indiana
Kansas
Kentucky
Maine
Massachusetts

Montana – Specifically Names CST
Nevada – Requires Unlicensed Disclosure
New Hampshire

North Dakota

It is the individual certified craniosacral therapist’s responsibility to insure they meet all of the criteria for exemption and practice legally within their state.
